# Router

In consumer electronics, thermally conductive materials are used to construct stable, low-thermal-resistance heat conduction paths, efficiently dissipating heat generated by chips (CPU/GPU/SoC), power devices, and power modules to heat sinks or housings.  
   
In devices such as routers, game consoles, laptops, mobile phones, and drones, this can achieve:   
① reducing junction temperature, preventing throttling and crashes;   
② improving overall system reliability and lifespan;   
③ optimizing thermal management in thin and light structures;   
④ improving surface temperature rise and user experience  
⑤ suppressing hotspots, improving system stability and energy efficiency.

Overview

## Router Thermal Interface Materials (TIMs) Solutions

High-throughput routers and gateways generate hotspots at the SoC/CPU, Wi-Fi chipset, RF front-end/PA, and PMICs, which can impact throughput stability and RF performance.

Sheen TIMs—thermal pads (gap fillers), gels/greases, and phase change materials—reduce thermal resistance and move heat to heat sinks or housings for reliable 24/7 operation.

Benefits

## Thermal Materials for Routers & Gateways

**Hotspot Control, Stable Throughput**

Cool the SoC/CPU, Wi-Fi chipset, and RF/PA hotspots—reducing throttling and keeping performance stable under load.

**Gap Filling Fit, Reliable Contact**

Conformable pads and gels bridge uneven stack-ups and tolerance gaps—maintaining low thermal resistance in compact enclosures.

**Long-Life Operation, Better RF Stability**

Stable interfaces over time help protect components and support RF stability during 24/7 operation and temperature cycling.

**Fast Custom Cutting + Engineering Support**

Custom thickness/hardness/size with die-cut parts and quick sampling—speeding design-in and mass production.
