THE NEXT GEN WI-FI SOLUTION – WI-FI 7
Wi-Fi 7 is the latest wireless solution that takes a huge leap forward with multiple improvements to meet the traffic demand brought and the growing number of wireless devices.
*Windows 11 compatibility only
Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) introduced higher speeds, wider channels, improved efficiency, and reduced latency over Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax). It also improved battery life and provided better performance in crowded environments.
The Wi-Fi 7 provides maximum speeds to a whopping 5.8 Gbps! 2.4 times faster than previous Wi-Fi 6/6E standards, Wi-Fi 7 is set to be the wireless standard of the future.
Previous Wi-Fi generations have had to make do with 160MHz channel widths. Wi-Fi 7 brings this width up to 320MHz (on 6GHz) – ensuring better reliability during simultaneous transmissions at max speeds.
The higher QAM(Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) value, the more data each packet can carry. Wi-Fi 7 improves the modulation scheme from 1024-QAM to 4096-QAM – boosting peak transmission rates and network capacity.
Wi-Fi 7 enables devices to simultaneously send and receive data across several frequency bands and channels to meet the traffic demand brought and the growing number of wireless devices.

PCIe supplemental power
The exclusive Supplemental PCIe Power connector provides dedicated power for the high-power demands of GPUs used in AI computing and gaming, ensuring stable, efficient, and sustained performance.Learn more about chassis compatbility.
Connect multiple Thunderbolt™ devices in a daisy chain, allowing data, power, and video signals to flow from the computer to up to five accessories. Alternatively, use a Thunderbolt™ hub or dock to consolidate all accessories into a single connection to your Thunderbolt™ computer.
Thunderbolt™ lets gamers play large file-sized games directly from an external drive, freeing up computer storage. Creators can quickly back up large video and photo files for peace of mind. With 40 Gbps bandwidth, Thunderbolt™ efficiently handles data and video, ideal for heavy workloads and fast file transfers.
Rich display options: Up to two 4K 60 Hz displays or one 8K 60 Hz display on a single connection.
Ready for the Future - Thunderbolt 5 Ready
Delivers up to 160 Gbps of total bandwidth transmission for the latest super-speed devices and drives. The ports can be employed for up to multiple external 8K displays, and support up to 27W of rapid power delivery charging.
