Combining premium performance with intelligent control in a travel-ready design, Slate 7 Pro is built for professionals and power users who demand uncompromising networking on the move.

True Tri-band Wi-Fi 7 Performance

Slate 7 Pro supports simultaneous tri-band operation across 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz, delivering high-speed, low-latency connectivity across diverse network environments. Featuring Multi-Link Operation (MLO), enhanced OFDMA, 4KQAM, and preamble puncturing, it maintains high throughput and stable performance even in congested networks, ensuring smooth, reliable connections for work, streaming, and real-time applications.

Intuitive 2.8-inch Touchscreen Control

Slate 7 Pro features a built-in 2.8-inch touchscreen that makes network management simple and intuitive. No need to pull out a phone or laptop to setup Wi-Fi, just tap the screen to monitor connection status in real time, switch VPN profiles instantly, share Wi-Fi via QR code, and complete basic network configuration with ease.

Enhanced VPN Performance

Powered by a high-performance quad-core 2.0 GHz CPU, the Slate 7 Pro delivers faster VPN throughput and enhanced multitasking capabilities. With full support for WireGuard® and OpenVPN (DCO support), it achieves up to 1100 Mbps and 1000 Mbps, respectively. Whether accessing a home lab remotely, transferring large files, or securing the entire local network, it ensures smooth, responsive performance with minimal latency.

Advanced Deep Packet Inspection Protection

Slate 7 Pro leverages DPI technology to proactively identify and block malicious traffic like gambling websites and malware, building a robust security shield for the entire local network. Beyond automated protection, it also enables granular manual controls, allowing you to manage specific applications, domains, or IP addresses for more precise and personalized network governance.

Integrated VPN Obfuscation

Slate 7 Pro features integrated VPN obfuscation that masks VPN traffic patterns to help bypass DPI detection. By concealing VPN signatures, it reduces the risk of throttling, blocking, or network restrictions, maintaining a stable and reliable encrypted connection. Whether operating under strict network controls or seeking greater privacy with uninterrupted access, Slate 7 Pro ensures a discreet and smooth online experience.
