TP-LINK router Wi-Fi dual-band AC1200 5GHz TL-ARCHER C54

Archer C54 is an AC1200 dual-band wireless router. Ultra-fast dual-band Wi-Fi connections – the AC1200 standard provides ideal speeds for 4K video streaming and fast downloads. Extended Wi-Fi coverage – four antennas and Beamforming technology ensure stable wireless connections and optimal network coverage. Three operating modes – Router, Access Point and Range Extender modes provide comprehensive network support. Parental control function – lets you manage internet access. Guest network – gives guests internet access while keeping the main network's resources secure. Smooth HD streaming – features IGMP Proxy/Snooping, Bridge and Tag VLAN contribute to optimal transmission IPTV. IPv6 support – compatible with IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6). Small size – takes up little space and blends perfectly into any interior.

Fast dual-band Wi-Fi
For devices requiring greater bandwidth, the 5 Ghz band is ideal, providing faster, smoother connections, while the stable 2,4 Ghz band is fully sufficient for other devices.

Whole-home Wi-Fi coverage
Four high-performance external antennas deliver a Wi-Fi signal to every corner of your home. Beamforming technology detects devices and directs a strong Wi-Fi signal toward them, even if they are far away or have low power levels.

Interference-free communication
Thanks to the technology MU-MIMO Archer C54 improves connection efficiency, helping devices achieve optimal performance. Simultaneous transmission to two devices MU-MIMO can be just as smooth as with one device, provided the service provider offers sufficient connection bandwidth.

Three operating modes:
1. Router mode (default): Connect an Ethernet cable to instantly create a private wireless network and provide access to all your Wi-Fi devices.
2. Access Point mode: Turn your wired network into a wireless network.
3. Range Extender mode: Expand the coverage of your wireless network.

High integration for a compact size
The Archer C54 router is designed to provide optimal Wi-Fi network performance. Advanced semiconductor technology integrates all components, including the processor, memory and multi-stream processing unit, on a single chip to deliver versatile operation and high power in a compact housing.

The same stability as standard-sized devices
The Archer C54 router underwent numerous tests based on rigorous standards to confirm reliable operation even in challenging conditions. A total of 8 randomly selected routers were tested for a combined 1936 hours.
- Continuous transmission test: 24 hours (Continuous upload and download of a 10 GB file.)
- Structural durability test: 1,5 m + 120 min (Drop test from a height of 1,5 m and vibration resistance test for 120 min.)
- Operation test in an adverse environment: 48 hours (Storage temperature: 70 °C and 20 °C.)
Memory stress test RAM: ≥ 25000 (Read and write.)
- Performance test: 16 devices + 7 days (16 connected Wi-Fi devices transmitting data for 7 days without disruption to Wi-Fi network access.)
- Flash memory test: ≥ 2000 I/O (Read and write.)

Easy-to-use management tools
Setting up the Archer C54 router takes only a few minutes using the intuitive Tether app or the management page. Tether is an app you can quickly download to your Anroid or iOS phone and use to configure all network settings easily.
