Wi-Fi AC 1300 Mbps PCI Express Card 600 Mbps

Overview

A powerful wireless connection throughout the house!


The ASUS PCE-AC68 is a dual-band Wi-Fi a/b/g/n/ac 1300Mbps + 600Mbps PCI Express network adapter that allows you to go from a cumbersome wired connection to a wireless connection that is just as fast thanks to the 802.11ac standard, which can deliver up to 1.3Gbps! What's more, its sleek base is magnetised to give you the freedom to change the position of the antennas to best capture the Wi-Fi signal.

New 802.11ac Wi-Fi standard

The PCE-AC68 network adapter integrates a 5th generation Broadcom chip that is compatible with the 802.11ac Wi-Fi standard and provides up to 3 times the performance of the 802.11n standard. It has two frequency bands, one at 2.4 GHz and the other at 5 GHz. Also, the PCE-AC68 remains compatible with previous Wi-Fi standards and can work well with existing devices.

Improved network coverage


With two frequency bands and a design that boosts the network signal, the PCE-AC68 can extend its coverage by up to 150% compared to a standard adapter. This eliminates any dead spots and provides a perfect connection wherever you are. So you can stream HD video or play multiplayer video games anywhere in your home.
Next generation Wi-Fi in Dual-Band!

The Broadcom TurboQAM hardware technology built into the ASUS PCE-AC68 brings the speed of AC Wi-Fi to both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. With a speed of 1300 Mbps + 600 Mbps, this wireless network card will let you enjoy high data transfer speeds!
Extend and strengthen your wireless connection!

ASUS AiRadar technology amplifies the wireless signal with precision to extend the coverage of your wireless network and improve its speed and stability. The Wi-Fi connection depends partly on your environment, so the ASUS PCE-AC68 network card intelligently detects the location of routers to optimize signal quality.

Detachable antennas


The three antennas of the PCE-AC68 are detachable and can be placed remotely using the dedicated extension cables. A magnetic base is also included, which can be positioned on a variety of supports. With its flexible design, the PCE-AC68 will help you find the best possible network signal for a fast and smooth connection.
Elegant aluminium heat sink for stability

The PCE-AC68 features a sleek aluminum heatsink with thermal conductivity capabilities to keep heat away from the chipset to ensure excellent reliability for continuous use. By reducing the temperature, the heat sink improves connection stability and extends the life of the PCE-AC68.

    Effective

    Bought it in 2021 to add to my fixed PC configuration, since then I've had wifi which works perfectly, the support with the antennae is magnetised so you can place it on the PC case, which is very practical.

    CLEAR

    Good for the delivery, fast and compliant.
    Good quality equipment with accessories (triple antenna, cables of comfortable length, etc.)
    Easy installation with the CD included in the kit
    The downside is that the ASUS website provides a problematic update that displays a window that loops as soon as you close it. Need to reinstall the CD provided and not try to update from the ASUS site.

    Card out of order after just over a year of use

    I was certainly unlucky, my card broke after just over a year of use. Obviously I don't give it a good grade because I think that 80€/year to have WIFI on a PC is a bit expensive, but apart from that, when the card was working, its installation was simple, I never had any problem of untimely disconnections, just a few times of loss of connection profiles, obliging me to enter the wifi key again. I've never had a problem with the speed either. It could have been perfect if the card had lasted a bit longer :'(

    Very good investment

    I was having trouble maintaining a good connection in my new house, simple set up, fairly aesthetically pleasing and unobtrusive antenna. It works perfectly for me ?

    Very good reception

    Very good reception, no loss, I have fibre optic in a public building and I download easily at 10 Mb/s. Easy to use and install.
