TP-LINK, a global provider of consumer and SMB networking products, today announced the launch of AC1200 Wireless Dual Band Router Archer C50 for seamless HD streaming, online gaming and other bandwidth-intensive tasks. Archer C50 leverages the 802.11ac technology, which helps ensure uninterrupted Wi-Fi connectivity to multiple devices in home and functions as if multiple devices have their own dedicated router.
According to recent research by IDC, digitisation is transforming businesses in every industry. It is opening up a $2.1 trillion global market opportunity by 2019. Keeping the pace with global pace of growth, over the last few years Indian router market has been witnessing significant growth. The growing space of e-tailers is promising huge opportunities for the enterprise infrastructure market in India. On the access side, education, manufacturing and SMBs are likely to remain mainstream in coming quarters as well. Proposed smart cities, tech-savvy campuses, wi-fi enabled stations, broadband highways, wi-fi hotspots are the prospective segments in the direction of the digital infrastructure development and rollouts that will further push the demand for network infrastructure investment.
“IOT is driving significance growth in the emergence and adoption of smart devices that connect to home and business networks to enhance security, productivity and convenience. Market research firm IDC says, the average home has more than eight connected IoT devices, which leads to traffic jam in your home network. Routers that support 802.11ac standard, helps in alleviate these issues by providing more than four times the throughput of 802.11n hardware,” said Lynn Wang – Product Director at TP-LINK India. “Archer C50 provides the wireless networking backbone to users which allows them to enjoy multiple tasks without compromising in speed, range and coverage.”
