ULTIMATE WI-FI PERFORMANCE:
LIKE EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN DEDICATED ROUTER

We designed the versatile MAX-STREAM AC5400 MU-MIMO Gigabit Wi-Fi Router (EA9500S) to work as well in your home office or small business as it does for your online entertainment. This router delivers Wi-Fi to multiple users on multiple devices at the same time and same speed.

Featuring MU-MIMO (Multi-User, Multiple-Input, Multiple-Output) technology, this Next-Gen AC Router treats your devices--PCs, Smart TVs, streaming devices, smartphones--as if each has its own dedicated router. Working in your home office, you'll enjoy lag-free videoconferencing and fast file transfer, even while the rest of the family is streaming 4K or HD media in the living room.

ROOM-TO-ROOM WI-FI WITH SEAMLESS ROAMING

The MAX-STREAM AC5400 MU-MIMO Gigabit Wi-Fi Router (EA9500S) offers Seamless Roaming as you move around your home when linked with a MAX-STREAM Range Extender. With Seamless Roaming, your enabled wireless devices will automatically switch to the strongest Wi-Fi signal, so you won't have to manually connect to the router or range extender when you move from one room to another--or even to your garden.** This means that you can move freely throughout your home while video chatting or streaming videos without experiencing dropped calls or buffering.

Pair a MAX-STREAM range extender such as the RE7000 with the AC5400 for more efficient home Wi-Fi that delivers stronger, more powerful Wi-Fi signal to all your devices.

EXPERIENCE THE POWER OF 1.8GHZ QUAD-CORE

If you're working in your home office, you can quickly download large files thanks to the MAX-STREAM's 1.8 GHz quad-core processor, which delivers the performance necessary for seamless videoconferencing and fast file transfer. The AC5400 is capable of handling multiple high-speed data streams at once--delivering faster Wi-Fi speeds to more devices.

EA9500S comes with Next Gen, “Quad-Core” 1.8GHz CPU, which provides the fastest processing speed to fully realize your Wi-Fi potential.

AIRTIME FAIRNESS MAKES FAST DEVICES GO EVEN FASTER

Do you know your legacy devices are dragging down your Wi-Fi Speed? Improve your overall home Wi-Fi efficiency with EA9500S Airtime Fairness, a feature that ensures even, fair distribution of Wi-Fi to different devices. This helps to reduce the lag associated with slower Wi-Fi devices.

BACKED BY 3-YEAR WARRANTY AND TECH SUPPORT

With its ability to perform double duty as a home office and entertainment router, the AC5400 merits a premium level of support. For this reason, it's backed not only by a three-year warranty, but also by a three-year tech support guarantee.

ADVANCED SECURITY FEATURES FOR A SECURE CONNECTION

With the MAX-STREAM AC5400 MU-MIMO Gigabit Wi-Fi Router (EA9500S), your work files, data, and home network information are safely connected with WPA/WPA2 encryption and an SPI firewall.

ADVANCED BAND STEERING FOR SMOOTH 4K VIDEO STREAMING

The Smart Connect feature intelligently chooses the best radio band for your device. With extremely fast combined speeds of up to 5.3 Gbps,* Tri-Band technology delivers up to double the Wireless-AC performance of a dual-band router. High-bandwidth applications like videoconferencing and movie streaming are ideal for the two high-speed 5 GHz bands, while lower-bandwidth devices like older wireless-N and -G computers can utilize the 2.4 GHz band.

HIGH-PERFORMANCE ANTENNAS FOR MAXIMUM COVERAGE

The router features eight adjustable external antennas, which can be positioned for optimal performance. They provide powerful streams of data to your devices, ensuring complete Wi-Fi coverage throughout your home. Unlike the two or three data streams found on other routers, the AC5400 delivers four simultaneous streams per band for stronger, faster performance.

IMPROVED MOBILE SPEED AND RANGE WITH BEAMFORMING

Play video games, listen to music, check email, shop, stream movies, and more--without having to worry about signal drop-off. Beamforming technology directs Wi-Fi signals to each of your mobile devices. This focused direction provides increased signal strength and coverage.

CUSTOMIZE AND MANAGE YOUR HOME WI-FI ANYTIME, ANYWHERE
