Dual-Band USB 3.0 Wi-Fi Adapter

The Thin King AC1200 is a USB Wi-Fi adapter that brings dual-band wireless connectivity to desktops, laptops, audio receivers, PlayStation 4 consoles and televisions. It supports Windows XP through Windows 10 and Mac OS 10.4 to 10.12.5, making it suitable for upgrading older systems or adding wireless capability to devices lacking built-in Wi-Fi.

USB 3.0 Interface and Wireless Limits

The adapter connects via USB 3.0 with a transfer rate up to 5 Gbps, which is ten times faster than USB 2.0. Wireless performance reaches a maximum data rate of 1200 Mbps split between 5 GHz at 867 Mbps and 2.4 GHz at 400 Mbps. Actual throughput depends on router capabilities, environmental interference and the USB host controller.

Upgrading from Single-Band or USB 2.0 Adapters

This unit replaces single-band 2.4 GHz adapters or USB 2.0 wireless dongles that max out at lower speeds and suffer more congestion. The jump is worth it when the network uses an 802.11 ac router and the user needs the 5 GHz band for reduced interference or the higher USB 3.0 bus speed to avoid bottlenecks during large transfers.

Questions about this item

Which frequency band should I select for the best throughput?

Use the 5 GHz band for up to 867 Mbps when you need maximum speed, or the 2.4 GHz band for up to 400 Mbps when range matters more.

Will the adapter really deliver 1200 Mbps inside my computer?

The 1200 Mbps figure is the combined theoretical ceiling of both bands; real-world throughput will be lower and depends on router capability, distance and interference.

Does the USB 3.0 port limit the wireless speed?

No, the USB 3.0 interface supports up to 5 Gbps, well above the adapter's 1200 Mbps maximum wireless rate.
