AX3000 Wi-Fi 6 PCIe Adapter

The TP-Link Archer TX50E adds Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.0 to a desktop PC through a PCI Express slot. It delivers up to 2402 Mbps on the 5 GHz band and 574 Mbps on the 2.4 GHz band. A specialised heatsink and gold-plated contacts help maintain stability during heavy use. Two external high-gain antennas provide broader signal coverage.

Windows 10 64-bit desktops needing Wi-Fi 6

This card suits builders upgrading a Windows 10 (64-bit) system to AX3000 speeds and Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity. It supports MU-MIMO and OFDMA for lower latency on busy networks. Buyers running Linux, older Windows versions, or a 32-bit OS should look elsewhere. Laptops and small-form-factor cases without a full-size PCIe slot cannot use this adapter.

Intel Wi-Fi 6 chipset with WPA3 security

The adapter uses an Intel Wi-Fi 6 chipset to fully utilise a compatible Wi-Fi 6 router. It supports the latest WPA3 protocol alongside WPA2, WPA and 64/128-bit WEP. Backward compatibility covers 802.11ac, n, a, g and b standards. A Bluetooth header cable is included for internal connection to the motherboard.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the Archer TX50E generate when running all day?

The card includes a specialised heatsink and gold-plated contacts designed to maintain stability during extended use. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 40°C.

What must my PC already have for this adapter to work?

A free PCI Express slot, Windows 10 64-bit, an available USB 2.0 header for the Bluetooth 5.0 cable, and space to mount the two external 5 dBi antennas.

Will the AX3000 card work with my older 802.11ac router?

Yes. The adapter supports full backward compatibility with 802.11ac, n, a, b and g standards on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.
