Gennemgang af ASUS Tri-Band Wireless-AC3200 - Batmans router er lige blevet opgraderet!

ASUS Tri - Band Wireless-AC3200-^{(ASUS Tri-Band Wireless-AC3200)} routeren eller RT-AC3200, som den hedder af producenten, er den dyreste trådløse router, der tilbydes af ASUS . Det er den første tri-band trådløse router i denne virksomheds portefølje, og den kan prale af nogle meget imponerende specifikationer og en pris, der matcher dem. Sidste år, da vi anmeldte dens forgænger - ASUS RT-AC87U , var vi meget imponerede. Forestil dig vores nysgerrighed, da vi modtog opgraderingen til sidste års model. Vi brugte ASUS RT-AC3200 i vores testlaboratorium i et par uger, og nu er vi klar til at dele vores konklusioner:

Hvorfor Tri-Band trådløse routere?

Indtil de seneste måneder var de routere, der blev lanceret på markedet, for det meste dual-band. En dual-band router giver to trådløse bånd: et 2,4 GHz trådløst bånd og et andet 5 GHz bånd, så du kan bruge både gamle enheder (som kun fungerer ved at bruge ældre protokoller til 2,4 GHz trådløst bånd) og nye enheder. Det er som at have to trådløse routere i én. Ved at opdele de tilgængelige klienter på netværket, forstyrrer ældre generationsenheder ikke dine nye enheder, og hver af dem bruger den hurtigst mulige trådløse netværksforbindelse uden at påvirke de andre negativt.

Tri-Band- routere tager det et skridt videre og giver tre trådløse bånd til at rumme endnu flere enheder på et netværk. ASUS Tri - Band Wireless-AC3200-^{(ASUS Tri-Band Wireless-AC3200)} routeren giver for eksempel et 2,4 GHz-bånd, der tilbyder hastigheder op til 600 Mbps og to 5Ghz-bånd til hastigheder op til 1300 Mbps . Det er en maksimal samlet datahastighed på 3200 Mbps , hvis du tilføjer alle tre trådløse netværk. Tri-Band- routere kan være særligt nyttige i netværk med mange trådløse enheder. Lad os antage, at du har omkring 40 enheder, der konkurrerer om to trådløse bånd. Det er 20 enheder/bånd. Hvis du har dem, brug 3 trådløse bånd på et Tri-Bandrouter, så har du færre enheder/bånd (13 eller 14), hvilket betyder hurtigere trådløse netværksforbindelser for hver enhed og mindre overbelastning af netværket.

Reviewing ASUS Tri-Band Wireless-AC3200 - Batman's Router Just Got Upgraded!

The ASUS Τri-Band Wireless-AC3200 router оr RT-AC3200 as it is named by its manufacturer, is the most expensive wireless router offered by ASUS. It's the first tri-band wireless router in thiѕ company's portfolio and it boasts some very impressive specifications and a price to matсh them. Last year, when we rеviewed its predecessor - ASUS RT-AС87U, we were very impressed. Imagine our curiosity when we received the uрgradе to last year's model. We used ASUS RT-AC3200 in our test lab for a couple of wееks and now we are ready to share our conclusions:

Why Tri-Band Wireless Routers?

Up until recent months, the routers that were launched on the market were mostly dual-band. A dual-band router provides two wireless bands: one 2.4 GHz wireless band and another 5 GHz band, allowing you to use both old devices (which work using only older protocols for 2.4 GHz wireless band) and new devices. It's like having two wireless routers in one. By dividing the clients available on the network, older generation devices aren't interfering with your new devices and each of them uses the fastest possible wireless network connection without negatively impacting the others.

Tri-Band routers take it one step further and provide three wireless bands to accommodate even more devices on a network. The ASUS Tri-Band Wireless-AC3200 router, for instance, provides one 2.4GHz band, offering speeds up to 600Mbps, and two 5Ghz bands, for speeds up to 1300Mbps. That's a maximum total data rate of 3200 Mbps, if you add-up all three wireless networks. Tri-Band routers can be especially useful in networks with many wireless devices. Let's assume that you have about 40 devices that compete for two wireless bands. That's 20 devices/band. If you have them use 3 wireless bands on a Tri-Band router, then you have fewer devices/band (13 or 14), meaning faster wireless network connections for each device and less network congestion.

Unboxing The ASUS RT-AC3200 Tri-Band Wireless Router
