D-Link Corporation (TWSE: 2332), a global leader in networking solutions, proudly announces that its latest AQUILA PRO AI M95 BE9500 Wi-Fi 7 Smart Mesh Router has successfully passed the stringent cybersecurity assessment under the EU Radio Equipment Directive (RED) EN 18031 standard. This milestone marks D-Link as the first networking brand in Taiwan to obtain the CE RED Type Examination Certificate (TEC) issued by internationally recognized certification body Nemko, ushering in a new era of cybersecurity compliance in the networking industry.
D-Link CEO and Spokesperson CJ Chang emphasized that this important milestone not only reflects D-Link’s leadership in cybersecurity and compliance with international standards but also reinforces the brand’s global commitment to innovation and high-quality product development. The certified M95 meets rigorous global cybersecurity standards and demonstrates exceptional design, having already earned the prestigious Red Dot Design Award. Combining outstanding security features and MIT-inspired aesthetics, the M95 is positioned to capture market attention.
The EN 18031 series has been officially published in the EU Official Journal (OJ) as a harmonized standard under the RED (Directive 2014/53/EU), clearly outlining essential cybersecurity requirements for IoT and wireless devices. As a long-time industry leader in cybersecurity, D-Link prioritizes security as a foundational element of product development. The collaboration with Nemko and acquisition of the RED TEC certificate confirms that the M95 not only delivers top-tier wireless performance but also complies with the stringent cybersecurity requirements for entry into the EU market.
As D-Link’s flagship Wi-Fi 7 router, the M95 delivers blazing-fast speeds and ultra-low latency with a tri-band (2.4 GHz / 5 GHz / 6 GHz) and 320 MHz channel bandwidth. Built for the next-generation smart home, it features Multi-Link Operation (MLO), AI-powered network optimization, advanced WPA3 encryption, and AI Eco Mode for energy efficiency. Made in Taiwan with trusted quality, the AQUILA PRO AI series includes the R95 model, which features the same high-performance core technology and security capabilities, providing consumers with more reliable options.
In terms of cybersecurity, the M95 supports WPA3 encryption and is among the first in the industry to comply with the latest European cybersecurity standards, including EN 18031, EN 303 645, and IEC 62443-4-1 for secure product development. These certifications confirm the M95’s advanced defenses against hacking and malicious attacks, making it a benchmark product aligned with the EU’s new cybersecurity framework and strengthening D-Link’s competitive position in the global market.
D-Link has a strong track record of working with third-party certification bodies and labs for security testing and certification. In 2023, D-Link became the first Taiwanese networking brand to pass ETSI EN 303 645 and has continued investing in security R&D to meet cybersecurity requirements across major markets. The company has also consistently scored top marks in governance in international ESG assessments by S&P Global, FTSE Russell, and Sustainalytics, demonstrating its ongoing commitment to cybersecurity governance and sustainable business practices.
CJ Chang concluded that D-Link will continue to meet the highest international security and compliance standards to enhance the resilience of digital ecosystems. Through advanced technologies and rigorous management, the company aims to deliver on its brand promise—One Connection • Infinite Possibilities—and provide users worldwide with safer, smarter, and more reliable networking solutions.
