NCTC, the National Content & Technology Cooperative, and TP-Link have announced an agreement that will provide NCTC’s members with the best possible North American prices and premium access to its inventory of reliable networking devices and accessories. The deal is part of an established partnership that enables communications service providers to offer self-optimizing Wi-Fi, access controls, cyber-security and more.
The agreement, which was featured at The Independent Show 2022, encompasses a wide-range of TP-Link products, including the Deco4ISP and Omada business line solutions. While many are facing supply chain constraints, TP-Link has volume available now that is ready to ship, meaning NCTC’s members can access their products when they need them.
“TP-Link is a terrific NCTC partner. As the IoT, smart home technology and other developments drive an increasingly connected world, our members can use their Deco4ISP and Omada business line products to drive revenue and provide premium, high-speed coverage to virtually any setting or device,” said Steve Beardslee, NCTC VP of Video & Broadband Solutions. “By providing the best pricing on TP-Link products, our partnership better equips NCTC’s members’ customers with the right support and equipment to meet ever-evolving bandwidth needs.”
