AXE5400 Wi-Fi 6E Bluetooth 5.3 PCIe Adapter / Archer TXE72E
The TP-Link Archer TXE72E is an AXE5400 tri-band Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth PCIe card for desktop PCs. It connects on the 6 GHz, 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz bands, with up to 2402 Mbps on 6 GHz, 2402 Mbps on 5 GHz and 574 Mbps on 2.4 GHz, through two external high-gain tri-band antennas.

Tri-band Wi-Fi 6E with the 6 GHz band: With a Wi-Fi 6E router, the card can use the 6 GHz band, which has more free channels and less interference from older devices than 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz. That helps keep speeds steady in apartments and offices where many networks overlap. The rates listed are maximum link rates; real speed depends on the router and environment.
Windows 11 needed for 6 GHz: The card supports Windows 10 and Windows 11 (64-bit), but TP-Link states that the 6 GHz band currently works on Windows 11 only. On Windows 10 it still works on 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz.

Bluetooth for game controllers and headsets: The card adds Bluetooth to your desktop for controllers, headphones, mice and keyboards. Bluetooth runs through the included Bluetooth header cable (0.3 m), which connects to a USB header on the motherboard.
Two high-gain tri-band antennas and WPA3: The two external antennas can be angled for better reception than small internal antennas. The card supports WPA3 along with WPA/WPA2 for stronger protection when the router supports it.

Good to know
- There are two hardware versions: V1 has Bluetooth 5.2 and V2 has Bluetooth 5.3. The Wi-Fi speeds are the same.
- The 6 GHz band works on Windows 11 only; Windows 64-bit is required.
- Wi-Fi 6E features need a router that also supports Wi-Fi 6E; 160 MHz on 5 GHz may be unavailable in some countries.
- Bluetooth needs the header cable connected to the motherboard. A low-profile bracket is included.
