The Challenge

When modernising its warehouse portfolio, a client specialising in paper products decided to invest in smart warehouse technology, incorporating WiFi-enabled fork-lift trucks and touchscreen e-stock management systems. However, maintaining seamless WiFi connections and coverage around a site of over 30,000m² remained a large financial and logistical challenge.

ASUS Solution

An employee who uses ASUS networking devices at home proposed ASUS AiMesh routers to solve the problem. The company tested the ROG Rapture GT-AX11000 tri-band AiMesh routers and found they provided better coverage in several warehouses than common ceiling-mount access points. Thanks to the tri-band, the ROG routers have one dedicated band for AiMesh backhaul while providing stable dual bands for WiFi operation. This solution is perfect for such a large site where Ethernet cable is difficult and expensive to deploy. With high-capacity throughput and a strong signal, data transmission works perfectly, just as though it were an office network environment. The GT-AX11000's adjustable external antennas can also be set at the optimum angle to provide even better WiFi performance.

The customer invested in several ROG Rapture GT-AX11000 routers to build up their smart warehouse network and used their own internal experts to deplay and set them up. The company is now considering implementing the same solution in all their subsidiaries and warehouses.
