All You Need for Maximum Productivity

Thunderbolt™ Connectivity

Get immersed in your creations with two Thunderbolt™ 5 ports and one Thunderbolt™ 4 port for connecting to all your compatible content-creation gadgets, enjoying up to 120 Gbps bi-directional data transfers. To further push your creative work with one 8K or two 4K Colour-accurate monitors, you can connect your discrete graphics card to the onboard DisplayPort™ In port on the rear I/O panel and direct the video output via the Thunderbolt™ 5 port (DP In cable not included.)

• Up to 120Gbps Bi-directional bandwidth
• DisplayPort 2.1 Supports one 8K or dual 4K displays
• Daisy-Chaining For up to five devices

Ultrafast Networking

10 Gb & 2.5 Gb Ethernet

Dual Ethernet ports provide fast data transfers simultaneously for 2.5G internet streaming or uploading and 10G for local network-attached storage (NAS), allowing for improved data Organisation and security.

WiFi 7

The revolutionary WiFi 7 is up to 4.8X faster than standard WiFi 6, thanks to technology like 320 MHz channels on the 6 GHz band and 4K QAM (WiFi 7 features require onboard WiFi chipset, WiFi AP, and WiFi 7-supported operating systems to support the corresponding features. 320 MHz channels in the 6 GHz band may be unavailable in some regions/countries due to regulatory restrictions.) Multi-Link Operation (MLO) provides a more stable WiFi connection and lower latency, unlocking the realms of the unknown in gaming, streaming and industrial IoT.

ASUS WiFi Q-Antenna

Dual transceivers support the 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz bands to
