Technical specifications for the TP-Link Deco BE23 list a dual 2.5 Gbps WAN/LAN port configuration, ensuring a high-capacity physical link between nodes. The system is built on a Broadcom-based chipset optimized for thermal stability within a "shaved cylinder" enclosure. While the hardware does not utilize the 6GHz band, it employs Multi-Link Operation (MLO) to facilitate simultaneous data streams across 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies.
Material analysis identifies an internal thermal-finned heatsink designed to mitigate heat accumulation during sustained high-throughput operations. Standardized data indicates an aggregate speed rating of 3.6Gbps. The device functions as a Matter controller, providing local bridge capabilities for compatible smart home hardware via the 802.11be protocol.
- Wired Interface: 2× 2.5 Gbps ports per unit.
- Wireless Protocol: Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be).
- Automation Support: Matter and Handoff Roaming.
Properties of the Deco BE23 3-Pack make it a suitable candidate for wired backhaul deployments where 6GHz spectrum is not a prerequisite. This unit represents a high-efficiency model within the networking gear spectrum.
