TP-Link RE405BE BE6500 Dual-Band Wi-Fi 7 Range Extender
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
TP-Link BE6500 Dual-Band Wi-Fi 7 Range Extender (RE405BE) - 3 Years Local Warranty
The RE405BE is a dual-band Wi-Fi 7 wall-plug extender rated 5764 Mbps on 5 GHz and 688 Mbps on 2.4 GHz, with Multi-Link Operation, 160 MHz channels, 4K-QAM, four external antennas and a 2.5 Gbps Ethernet port. It runs as a range extender or access point and is EasyMesh-compatible.
Wi-Fi 7 on 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz
Without a 6 GHz radio, the RE405BE puts its capacity into a 5764 Mbps 5 GHz band plus 688 Mbps on 2.4 GHz. That suits homes where the router is dual-band Wi-Fi 7, or where 6 GHz clients are few. TP-Link notes the 160 MHz bandwidth on 5 GHz may be restricted in some regions.
Multi-Link Operation
MLO lets a Wi-Fi 7 client use the 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz links together, which TP-Link says increases throughput, reduces latency and improves reliability. MLO, 4K-QAM and Multi-RUs require Wi-Fi 7 client devices.
2.5 Gbps Ethernet Port
One 2.5 Gbps port can wire a PC, console or TV to the extended network, or backhaul the RE405BE to the router by cable in Access Point mode.
EasyMesh, Smart Roaming and Easy Setup
EasyMesh compatibility lets it join an EasyMesh router's network as one system; Smart Roaming keeps 802.11k/v clients on the best node. Setup is by WPS button or the Tether app.
Ideal For
Homes and small offices with a dual-band Wi-Fi 7 router that want high-speed coverage in far rooms plus a multi-gig wired port. Supplied by SourceIT with local Singapore warranty and GST invoice.

TP-Link notes that EasyMesh-compatible products can network with other EasyMesh devices, but failed connections may be due to firmware conflicts between vendors, and unified management is not guaranteed for other vendors' devices. Wi-Fi 7 features such as MLO, 4K-QAM and Multi-RUs require client devices that also support them. The extender may not be compatible with routers or gateways running altered, open-source-based, non-standard or outdated firmware.

Frequently Asked Questions — RE405BE
Does it have a 6 GHz band?
No. The RE405BE is dual-band, 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz. For 6 GHz, TP-Link's tri-band RE655BE is the step up.
Does it need a Wi-Fi 7 router?
No. TP-Link states it works with all Wi-Fi generations; MLO, 4K-QAM and Multi-RUs need Wi-Fi 7 clients to be used.
Can it be wired back to the router?
Yes. Access Point mode uses the 2.5 Gbps Ethernet port as the uplink.
What warranty does SourceIT provide?
Three years local Singapore warranty, under TP-Link's published replacement warranty terms, with a GST invoice.
