TP-Link showed at MWC 2026 its commitment to networks managed with AI for operators and service providers

MWC 2026 in Barcelona was the setting chosen by TP-Link to, in addition to showing its innovations for the end consumer, present its vision of networks in the near future to operators and service providers around the world. The company focused this part of its presence at the congress on your Aginet brandthe division aimed specifically at the professional market, with solutions ranging from wireless access to centralized network management through artificial intelligence.

A 5G router with Wi-Fi 7 and network management with AI

One of the most specific products that TP-Link brought to the congress was the NB815va 5G router with WiFi 7 designed so that operators can offer high-speed connectivity in areas where deploying fiber is not viable or is too expensive. This type of solution, known in the sector as fixed wireless access, allows broadband internet to be brought to homes and businesses using the mobile network as transport, without the need for cables to the home. The device is based on the 3GPP Release 18 standard, the same technical basis of the most advanced 5G developments today.

In parallel, the company presented its cloud management platform, which incorporates artificial intelligence models to proactively detect and resolve connectivity issues. The idea is that operators can identify faults in a customer’s network before the customer calls for service, thus reducing operating costs and improving the end-user experience. The system monitors the home network from end to end and automates diagnoses that until now required human intervention.

An app store for routers and fiber solutions

Another relevant announcement for the professional market was the platform prpl App Storea kind of application store designed for operator routers. The proposal allows service providers to add new functions to the routers they already have deployed in their customers’ homes, such as security tools or parental controls, without having to change the hardware or go through lengthy certification processes. It is an open architecture that seeks to enable operators to launch value-added services in a more agile way.

TP-Link also presented in Barcelona its portfolio of fiber solutions, which ranges from the equipment installed in the operators’ headquarters to the terminals that reach the user’s home, including centralized management platforms. The stated goal is to simplify the deployment of fiber networks and reduce operational complexity for service providers who want to scale their infrastructure.

All of these solutions were available for live demonstration at the TP-Link booth during the four days of the congress, where the company’s team attended to partners and operators interested in exploring collaboration possibilities.
