Description

With the high-performance and feature-packed TP-Link Archer T4U (AC1300) Wireless MU-MIMO USB Adapter, you can quickly and reliably connect your computer or laptop to a Wi-Fi network. The newest 802.11ac Wi-Fi standard is supported by this adapter, which offers blisteringly fast dual-band rates of up to 1300Mbps. It can manage several devices concurrently thanks to its MU- MIMO (Multi-User several-Input Multiple-Output) technology, offering a reliable and effective wireless connection for all of your gadgets.

Due to its dual-band connection, which allows it to operate on both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency bands, the Archer T4U gives you the flexibility to select the optimal band for your network. A better range is offered by the 2.4GHz frequency, but faster speeds and less interference are available in the 5GHz spectrum. Two high-gain external antennas that are included with the adapter increase signal strength and coverage and guarantee a steady and dependable connection even over long distances and in obstruction-filled locations.

A faster data transmission rate than USB 2.0 is made possible by the Archer T4U’s USB 3.0 interface, resulting in a speedy and dependable connection between the adapter and your computer. With its simple setup wizard, the adapter is easy to set up and supports a number of encryption methods, including WEP, WPA, and WPA2 to provide a secure wireless connection.
