About this electronic
Key Features Blazing-fast 9214 Mbps tri-band Wi-Fi † Wi-Fi 7 unleashes the full potential of the 6 GHz band with up to 320 MHz channels and 5.8 Gbps Wi-Fi speeds. Enjoy full access to 8K streaming and high-speed downloading. †※ 3.6x Faster speeds to power your devices ‡ Multi-Link Operation (MLO) enables Archer BE550 to transmit data with Wi-Fi 7 clients across the 6 GHz and 5 GHz bands simultaneously, delivering 3.6× faster Wi-Fi speeds than Wi-Fi 6/6E routers .‡ Ultra smooth Wi-Fi with lower latency △ Significantly lower latency than Wi-Fi 6/6E routers enables emerging applications like VR/AR, video conferencing, and online gaming to always run at top performance. △ Higher capacity for more devices † Communicates with multiple devices via 6 streams and tri-band simultaneously. Combined with the powerful CPU, Wi-Fi 7 provides congestion-free signals to your laptop, TV, thermostat, and baby monitor. 5x 2.5 Gbps ports for full multi-gigabit connectivity One 2.5 Gbps WAN port maximises home internet speeds with up to 2.5× the wired speed of a typical Gigabit Ethernet port. The additional four 2.5 Gbps LAN ports and one USB 3.0 port make Archer BE550 an ideal solution for future-proofing your home network .§ Far-reaching Wi-Fi coverage 6x optimally positioned antennas, proprietary Wi-Fi optimization, and Beamforming technology deliver broader coverage, more capacity, stronger and more reliable connections, and less interference. TP-Link HomeShield Manage online time and block inappropriate content to keep your family safe online with Parental Controls. Network Protection further keeps your home network safe by preventing potential threats and security issues. ** Great compatibility Take your Wi-Fi to the next level without worry. Archer BE550 offers great compatibility by working with all Wi-Fi generations and devices and all internet providers. * It also works with Alexa and Google Assistant. Flexible whole home Wi-Fi Archer BE550 is compatible with EasyMesh to form seamless whole home mesh Wi-Fi, preventing drops and lag when moving between signals. Enjoy uninterrupted streaming when moving around your home. *** VPN Client support Archer BE550 allows specified devices in your home network to access remote VPN servers without needing to install VPN software on every device. Archer BE550 can also run a VPN and ordinary internet connections at the same time for added security and flexibility. What's in the box? Wi-Fi Router Archer BE550 Power adapter RJ45 Ethernet cable Quick installation guide †Maximum wireless signal rates are the physical rates derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. Higher capacity is based on laboratory test data, which analyzed the connections of different devices on the 6 GHz, 5 GHz, and 2.4 GHz bands simultaneously. These devices simulated a typical home scenario by running simultaneous applications in the same room that included 4K video, 1080p video, 720p video, file downloading, web browsing, IP cameras, and other IoT devices. Actual wireless data throughput, wireless coverage, and connected devices are not guaranteed and will vary as a result of internet service provider factors, network conditions, client limitations, and environmental factors, including building materials, obstacles, volume and density of traffic, and client location. Actual network speed may be limited by the rate of the product's Ethernet WAN or LAN port, the rate supported by the network cable, internet service provider factors, and other environmental conditions. ‡ 3.6× faster Wi-Fi speed refers to the theoretical speeds of Wi-Fi 7 clients when connected to Archer BE550 compared with a Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 6E router. Wi-Fi 7 clients need to support Multi-Link Operation (MLO) and the 6 GHz band to reach up to 8.6 Gbps when connected to the 5 GHz and 6 GHz bands of Archer BE550 simultaneously. Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 6E routers may only provide 2402 Mbps on the 5 GHz or 6 GHz bands separately. △Significantly Lower Latency refers to the latency improvement of Wi-Fi 7 routers compared to Wi-Fi 6/6E routers, based on laboratory test data. The test conditions had the same 5 GHz or 6 GHz single-frequency wireless interference and tested the maximum latencies of Wi-Fi 7 clients (with MLO turned on) connecting to the 5 GHz and 6 GHz bands of Archer BE550 (with MLO turned on) simultaneously and to the 5 GHz or 6 GHz bands of a Wi-Fi 6/6E router (without the MLO function). § 2.5 Gbps internet speeds require compatible service plans and equipment. Actual network speed may be limited by the rate of the product's Ethernet WAN or LAN port, the rate supported by the network cable, internet service provider factors, and other environmental conditions. ☆Use of WPA3 requires clients to also support the corresponding feature. ◇Use of Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be), Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), and features including Multi-Link Operation (MLO), 320 MHz Bandwidth, 4K-QAM, Multi-RUs, OFDMA, and MU-MIMO requires clients to also support the corresponding features. ※The 320 MHz bandwidth is only available on the 6 GHz band. Simultaneously, the 320 MHz bandwidth on the 6 GHz band and 160 MHz bandwidth on the 5 GHz band may be unavailable in some regions/countries due to regulatory restrictions. Double channel width and speed refer to 320 MHz compared to 160 MHz for Wi-Fi 6 routers. *Wi-Fi generations represent the wireless standard IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be. All devices need to support 802.11 Wi-Fi protocols. Users may require an extra modem device that is compatible with their internet service provider to gain internet access. **HomeShield includes the Free Basic Plan. Fees apply for the Pro Plan. Visit tp-link.com/homeshield for more information. ***TP-Link EasyMesh-compatible products can network with other devices that use EasyMesh. Failed connections may be due to firmware conflicts of different vendors. The EasyMesh-compatible function is still being developed on some models and will be supported in subsequent software updates. This router may not support all the mandatory features as ratified in the IEEE 802.11be specification. Further software upgrades for feature availability may be required.
