USB 3.0 for full 802.11ac performance

USB 3.0 allows the USB-AC55 to pair with notebooks and desktops using a bandwidth up to ten times that of USB 2.0. It means the full advantage of 802.11ac networking is realized, as the adapter has enough throughput overhead to support much faster network speeds.

The USB-AC55 also includes a desktop cradle with a three-foot cable for more flexible positioning in troublesome Wi-Fi reception areas1.
