With its Deco M5 Whole-Home Wi-Fi System, TP-Link
addresses major concerns of modern householders who
want their homes to be as smart and up-to-date as they
are. At Pepcom’s Holiday Spectacular in San Francisco
on October 28 TP-Link showcased an array of solutions
for making the connected life easier, safer, and more e
njoyable.

The Deco M5 is a mesh networking solution that provides
seamless wireless internet coverage and comprehensive
security via TP-Link HomeCare. With built-in antivirus and
malware protection powered by Trend Micro*, Deco M5
provides a truly secure whole-home Wi-Fi system. TP-Link
HomeCare provides exploit and malware protection, powered
by TrendMicro*, along with an SPI firewall, device access control.
The TP-Link Deco mobile app enables remote access and
secure remote control of the network.  

Integration of the TP-Link control system with Google Assistant
on Google Home, Google Pixel, and compatible Android phones
means that voice control of any TP-Link product, including the
Deco M5, is easy and accessible. The Smart Plug Mini has been
compatible with Alexa for a year. Devices plugged into a TP-Link
Smart Plug can be controlled through the Kasa app.

Alexa and Google Home can also control the TP-Link smart bulbs.
Not just a lightbulb, but one that can change colors, making the
light in a room warmer or cooler, softer or brighter, as well as blue
or orange, or pink or green. TP-Link continues it’s 20+ year l
eadership in networking products for enterprise and home.
