TP-Link India, part of TP-Link Systems Inc., on Monday announced the commencement of local manufacturing of its Wi-Fi 7 product portfolio in India, making it one of the first global networking brands to localise Wi-Fi 7 production following the Department of Telecommunications’ January 2026 notification delicensing the lower 6 GHz spectrum band.

The company will begin manufacturing with the Omada EAP770 enterprise access point and plans to progressively expand localisation across its broader Wi-Fi 7 portfolio in a phased manner to cater to domestic demand and, eventually, select international markets.

The government’s decision to delicence the lower 6 GHz spectrum enables the deployment of Wi-Fi 7 solutions for both enterprise and home users across India.

Currently, nearly 92 per cent of TP-Link India’s product portfolio sold in the country is already manufactured locally through Indian EMS partners. The company is targeting a localisation level of 96–97 per cent over the next three years.

The DoT notification unlocks 500 MHz of spectrum in the 5925–6425 MHz band for licence-exempt usage, paving the way for the nationwide adoption of Wi-Fi 7 technology.
