The Linksys EA9500 is a Broadcom BCM4709C0 (1.4 GHz, 2 cores) MU-MIMO Tri-Band WiFi router, which has one 2.4GHz and two 5GHz WiFi Interfaces, making it an interesting choice for wireless backhaul or repeater applications. The radios support MCS 0-9 (up through 1024 QAM) for devices and paths that are compatible with those high-density modulations.

Note: The first 5 GHz radio (BCM4366) is default limited to ch. 48 and below. The second 5 GHz radio (the other BCM4366) is default limited between ch. 100 and 140.

It has eight 1G LAN ports, one 1G WAN port, both USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 interfaces and eight external antennas.

It is powered by an external 12V, 5A power adapter.
