ASUS PCE-AXE59BT Wi-Fi 6E PCIe Adapter with Magnetic Base

The ASUS PCEAXE59BT is a Wi-Fi 6E PCIe adapter that equips a desktop PC with tri-band wireless networking and Bluetooth 5.2. By adding access to the new 6 GHz band alongside 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz, it can deliver up to 5378 Mb/s of theoretical throughput, keeping 4K streaming, large file transfers, and online gaming smooth and responsive.

The adapter includes two external antennas on a magnetic base, so you can place them on top of the case or another metal surface for a stronger signal. This flexibility helps reduce dropouts in multi-level homes or offices where the computer sits under a desk or inside a cabinet.

Built-in Bluetooth 5.2 connects headsets, controllers, keyboards, and other peripherals without the need for separate USB dongles. WPA3 encryption provides stronger protection against unauthorized access, making the card a solid choice for work and personal use.

Installation is straightforward: slide the card into a spare PCIe x1 slot and select the standard or low-profile bracket that best fits your case. Windows 11 offers full driver support, while Windows 10 operates with limited functionality.
