Notes

FCC info

"ASUS RT-AC42U REV 1.10" is silkscreened on the board in the FCC photos.

A sticker on the flash chip suggests the Arcadyan WG911DAAC24-ASU model.

Documents on the FCC claim that the RT-ACRH17 and RT-AC1700 are identical.

• FCC ID: MSQ-RTHD00 (2017-08-02)

Equipment: Wireless-AC1700 Dual Band Gigabit Router

Brand Name: ASUS; Model No.: FCC Report

• ASUS RT-ACRH17 (US) • ASUS RT-AC42U (EU)
• ASUS RT-AC1700 • (RT-ACRHD00)

Default settings are per the FCC Label Sample.

• CMIIT ID: CMIIT-ID-2017AJ4019 (2017-06-27)

Despite having hardware capable of implementing three radios, this device

appears to only use the 2.4GHz radio of the IPQ4019 configured as 2x2.

User Manual says, "wireless-AC speeds up to 1400Mbps on the 5GHz band

& 300Mbps on the 2.4GHz band concurrently". This is likely inaccurate.

RF Exposure document shows that :

• two antennas are used for the 2.4GHz radio (ANT 0+1) and
• four antennas are used for the 5GHz radio (ANT 0+1+2+3).
