AX3000 PCIe adapter for desktop PCs

The Archer TX55E adds Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 to a desktop computer through a standard PCI Express slot. It delivers up to 3.0 Gbps combined wireless throughput on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. The card requires Windows 11 or Windows 10 64-bit only.

Two antennas low-profile bracket Bluetooth cable

Two high-gain dual-band antennas attach to the rear bracket for broader range. A low-profile bracket is included for slim chassis builds. A standard Bluetooth header cable connects the adapter to the motherboard for Bluetooth 5.2 functionality. A resource CD and quick installation guide complete the bundle.

Check PCIe slot OS and antenna clearance

Verify the motherboard has a free PCI Express slot and an available internal USB 2.0 header for the Bluetooth cable. Confirm the operating system is Windows 11 or Windows 10 64-bit. Ensure the case rear panel has space for the two external antennas and the chosen bracket height.

Questions about this item

Will the two high-gain dual band antennas need replacing over time?

The antennas are detachable and can be swapped if damaged, but no periodic replacement is required under normal indoor use within the 0°C–40°C operating range.

What limits sustained throughput on the 5 GHz band?

The 5 GHz radio tops out at 2402 Mbps and is regulated to 27 dBm (FCC) or 23 dBm (CE) EIRP, so regulatory power caps and the AX3000 PHY ceiling are the first bottlenecks.

How much heat does the card produce when running all day?

The adapter is rated for continuous operation up to 40 °C ambient with 10 %–90 % non-condensing humidity; no active cooling is fitted, so case airflow must keep the slot area within that envelope.
