Even before the arrival of WiFi 7, a mesh WiFi system was the best way to get reliable, whole-home wireless networking in larger homes. Traditional standalone routers might not have the range to provide a reliable connection beyond your primary living space to the upstairs bedrooms, attic space, finished basement, attached garage, or backyard patio. Mesh WiFi systems, on the other hand, use multiple units spaced around your home to banish dead zones. Our new ZenWiFi BE30000 mesh WiFi system offers all the advantages that you’ve come to know and love about mesh WiFi and supercharges them with the power of WiFi 7. Available today in a convenient three-pack, the ZenWiFi BE30000 gives you jaw-dropping speeds, seamless connections, and versatile yet easy-to-use configuration options.
A revolutionary speed boost
There’s a lot to love about WiFi 7, but the headlining feature is speed. While WiFi 6 focused on congestion-busting tech designed for crowded networks, WiFi 7 kicks into high gear with new features that deliver faster wireless speeds than ever, all while retaining or refining the advantages of WiFi 6.*
Through a variety of new WiFi 7 technologies, the ZenWiFi BE30000 takes the crown as one of the fastest ZenWiFi mesh WiFi systems available.
- 320MHz channels: WiFi 6E opened up access to the 6GHz band, and WiFi 7 lets you do more with it through extra-wide 320MHz channels.** With their higher capacity, they allow WiFi 7 routers to deliver higher performance and larger capacity. The 320MHz channel bandwidth on the 6GHz band offers data rates twice as fast as you could get through WiFi 6E.
- 4096 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (4K QAM): Through 4K QAM, WiFi 7 packs more data into the same amount of spectrum, allowing for high-density data transmission. That amounts to an out-of-the-box 20% data rate increase over WiFi 6/6E.
- Multi-Link Operation (MLO): Multi-link operation (MLO)*** allows devices to simultaneously transmit and/or receive across different bands and channels, with separation of data and control planes. The parallel links enable faster speeds by aggregating bandwidth, with more reliable WiFi connections on multiple concurrently used bands.***
With all these new advances from WiFi 7, the ZenWiFi BE30000 can offer an astonishing speed boost to your home network. With beyond-fast speeds of up to 30Gbps, you’ll be able to take full advantage of a multi-gig internet connection and supply the bandwidth needs of a full home of connected devices.
Astonishing range
A router with poor range can cause no end of frustration in your daily life. What good is the freedom to take your laptop to any room in the house if you only have a good connection in your office? How much time will you spend on your backyard deck if your smartphone keeps dropping its connection when you’re out there? And what’s the point of renovating your basement into a family hangout if the entire floor is an internet dead zone?
If you’re currently dealing with any of these problems, you need a WiFi solution that provides better coverage — and great coverage is the name of the game for the ZenWiFi BE30000. It has twelve internal antennas and sixteen high-power front-end modules. Between this cutting-edge hardware, the advancements of WiFi 7, AI-enhanced AiMesh technology, and powerful backhaul performance, this mesh WiFi system can offer coverage of up to 11,000 square feet, a 33% increase over last gen.
But great coverage is not just about a large maximum range number. It’s about having a premium connection in the locations that matter to you the most. Since the ZenWiFi BE3000 has three separate units in the box, it’s easy to space them out around your house in a way that keeps them close to your most important devices and rooms. That means that you’ll spend more time enjoying the high-end speeds of the 6GHz band, even as work and play takes you to different areas of your home.
Great looks that are never out of place
ZenWiFi mesh WiFi systems have long been a favorite for folks who want their networking products to coordinate with the contemporary, modernist decor of their living spaces. The ZenWiFi BE30000 carries forward the concentric spun metal circles, classy white surfaces, and understated aesthetics of the series. Unobtrusive venting along the edges of the units allows for quiet yet effective cooling, while a monogram ASUS logo adds a touch of elegance.
Next-gen backhaul options
Since mesh WiFi systems use multiple separate units for your home WiFi network, they need a way to communicate with each other. This connection between the units, called a “backhaul,” is crucial for a seamless experience with a mesh WiFi system. Thanks to the 6GHz band and WiFi 7, the ZenWiFi BE30000 offers our best wireless backhaul yet. That ensures a great connection for all your devices, no matter where they are in your home or what ZenWiFi unit they happen to be connected to at the time.
Built for regions with access to the freshly opened 6GHz band, the ZenWiFI BE30000 is a quad-band system with two 6GHz bands, one 5GHz band, and a 2.4GHz band for your legacy devices. The second 6GHz band gives you a powerful wireless option for the backhaul link between your nodes, all the while keeping a 6GHz band open for your WiFi 7 and WiFi 6E devices.
While WiFi 6E mesh WiFi systems could offer 6GHz backhaul connections, the ZenWiFi BE30000 has a special trick up its sleeve courtesy of WiFi 7. MLO fortifies the connection between the separate units with increased bandwidth and reliability by communicating via multiple bands simultaneously.
Perhaps you’d prefer a wired backhaul instead? That’s not a problem. The ZenWiFi BE30000 features a 10Gbps LAN port that you can easily configure for use as an Ethernet backhaul. Daisy-chain your three units together via these high-bandwidth ports, and you’ll have an enviable, high-performance backhaul connection that leaves both 6GHz bands completely open for communicating with client devices.
