ASUS ProArt Ecosystem Expands into Professional Grade Networking with the Minimalist PRT BE5000 Wi Fi 7 Router and PQG U1080 Switch for Creators
ASUS expands the ProArt Ecosystem through its introduction of dedicated networking equipment. The company has developed professional grade networking equipment which enables users to experience its benefits through their complete system. The ProArt division of the company expands beyond its traditional focus on high end creative monitors and motherboards through its introduction of the PRT BE5000 router. The machine serves content creators who need both visual restraint and advanced traffic management capabilities, although its throughput capabilities make it suitable for competitive gaming as well.
The PRT BE5000 departs from the typical antenna laden router design, opting for a clean, internal antenna chassis that prioritizes visual minimalism. The ASUS device operates on Wi Fi 7 technology which enables the system to manage dual band connections, providing 688 Mbps for 2.4 GHz and 4320 Mbps for 5 GHz. The system possesses five ports which include one 2.5 Gbps WAN port, one 2.5 Gbps LAN port, and three standard 1 Gbps LAN ports. The router delivers excellent performance for sizable spaces, as it provides 204 square meters of coverage area and supports mesh networking solutions for eliminating wireless dead spots.
The primary purpose of the new hardware enables it to perform intelligent traffic management between different types of data streams. For creators managing massive file transfers or streamers balancing multiple data heavy tasks, the router identifies and optimizes professional application traffic to ensure stability. The ProArt brand extends its reliability promise through network layer prioritization.
The ProArt PQG U1080 switch functions as a hardware solution which fulfills the bandwidth requirements of modern storage arrays and professional media production facilities. The switch utilizes a combination of two 10 Gigabit SFP+ ports alongside eight 2.5 Gbps Ethernet ports. This high density port configuration was created to accommodate users who need to transfer high resolution project files through their Network Attached Storage (NAS) systems.
ASUS has yet to disclose its planned retail price and global launch date for these networking products. The company establishes a complete high performance connectivity ecosystem for content creators through its introduction of the router and switch.
