TCL 5G Smart Connected Devices - Enabling 5G for Everything, Everywhere

Furthermore, TCL's launch at MWC 2024 spotlights a series of connected devices that expands TCL's 5G portfolio. Bridging the gap for affordable 5G devices to power everyday IoT use cases and advance 5G adoption are the new TCL LINKKEY dongle series.

The LINKKEY IK511 is one of the world's first dongle based on the 5G RedCap * standard, marking a milestone in making 5G more accessible. 5G RedCap reduces costs and power consumption compared to 5G eMBB which can help users enjoy 5G features with less investment.

TCL also unveiled the TCL LINKHUB HH132 Pro, delivering ultra-fast and reliable connectivity within homes and small business environments. The router's advanced Wi-Fi 6 technology and capacity to support 256 devices concurrently ensure a seamless, buffer-free online experience, while the sophisticated 5GHz 3T3R antenna array extends coverage to eliminate dead zones, enabling speeds up to 600Mbps downlink and 150Mbps uplink.
