TP-Link Archer C5400X router with quad-core SoC at 5433Mbit/s Available
TP-Link has released a new flagship router, meet the Archer C5400X. This beast comes with 16GB internal storage, a quad-core SoC that manages 5433Mbit/s combined on a 4x4 tri-band configuration. The unit handles a connection on the 2.4GHz-band at 1000Mbit/s and combines it with two 5 GHz connections at 2167 Mbit/s.
The router has been fitted with a whopping eight antennas to increase range. The router supports x4 MU-MIMO and NitroQAM. You will also spot eight gigabit Ethernet jacks on the backside. The Internal 16 GB storage may be used for storing a movie or music, basically, it functions as a small NAS. The quad-core SoC is made by Broadcom and is the BCM4908 with four 28nm Cortex A53-cores running at 1.8GHz. It seems that these routers slowly are turning into small servers. I do wonder what the power consumption would be when fully utilizing all bands.
if you can spot it, the unit will be selling for € 349,-

Really, Sterling Mallory Archer of ISIS fame? They need a better name. Does not instill confidence in any kind of performance quality.

I thought it looks like some demon king's crown.
I had no idea who that is before googling, so such infamy is likely so small it wouldn't matter naming wise.
Someone needs to make a headcrab cover or paint job for these arachnoid routers

Take it never watched the show.
If it needs to be explained it's not worth it...humor gets lost in translation.

They should have called this headcrab Gonarch or something, instead of Archer.

I really don't think anybody thinking of buying this router will in any way put that link together. Even if they did it's ridiculous to even consider that this router was named after someone linked to ISIS

"tri-band configuration, the 2.4GHz-band at 1000Mbit/s and combines it with two 5 GHz connections at 2167 Mbit/s". What's the frequency/bit rate of the third band?

Could they have made it any uglier, though? That is the main question.

Looking at your avatar picture, are you sure you should be saying that?

It's from the TV show Archer - the name of the fictional organization that the main characters worked for is called ISIS, which was named before the terrorist organization came about.
