Model: Deco X50 - PoE  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I'm planning out Smart Home and I was planning to have Kasa switches with Tapo Sockets both with Matter support.

 

My prefference would be to connect everything to Deco X50 - PoE, but currently it doesn't support Matter. Would it ever be possible you think?

Hi, welcome to the community.

Have you purchased Deco X50-POE already?

If not, I think maybe you could have a look at Deco X50/X55_V1 which already support Matter on its latest firmware.

It is also planned to support Matter on other models but the ETA of a specific model is not clear yet.

 

Thank you very much and best regards.

  @David-TP I actually did purchase 3 x TP link devices to test:

  • X50 Outdoor (which is PoE)
  • X50 (that is not PoE). I'm not a big fan of running cabless, but don't seem to have much choice Matter and PoE are not combined in one device
  • Kasa KS225 dimming switch

 

If you have any ideas / suggestions for tests please let me know.

Hi, Thanks for the reply.

May I know the current firmware of your Deco X50(not POE)?

Please also help me check the hardware version of the Deco X50.

How to find the firmware version of Deco

I think you could try to set Deco X50 as the main Deco and check under Deco APP>Smart Home>Add smart devices, there should be an option to add Matter supported devices.

Wait for your reply and best regards.
