One could easily be disgusted :

 

After several years of patience, product was FINALLY  "Released" ...

 

But from a practical stand point ... NO one can purchase it :

  

Temporarily out of stock   !!!

  @JamesW007,

Sorry to hear that. However, it is not too too surprising just from a US standpoint, as we had seen so many international users looking for the model. If the global supply is managed anything like it is in the US, keep checking for availability as the page should be updated relatively quickly after a new shipment is received.

  @Riley_S 

 

Back to Amazon UK ....

https://www.amazon.co.uk/TP-Link-Deco-Outdoor-X50-Outdoor-Weatherproof/dp/B0BKPRCS6W/ref=sr_1_2?crid=10E91HSZ7OUJ8&keywords=tp+link+deco+x50+outdoor&qid=1684259223&sprefix=tp+link+deco+x%2Caps%2C137&sr=8-2

 

What could explain the price tag of £ 285 or approx. 356 USD .... when the very same unit is available in the States for 130 USD ... ???

  @JamesW007,

No Clue, you would have to check with your local region for details like this. While there could be different requirements or hardware -  it is more likely, especially since it is listed as unavailable now, that it was not being sold through an official TP-Link channel/authorized seller. I recommend always navigating to the Amazon pages from the TP-Link site, and making sure that the device is being sold/shipped by Amazon or TP-Link

  @JamesW007 it's a seller trying to rip people off

 

That is not the usual price (129 I think) this is a common occurrence on Amazon with sellers

  @Riley_S looking forward to adding x50 to my household with it being available. Any chance a POE Wifi 6e or 7 is in the works?

  @PatrickK1,

Keep in mind that we are still at the forefront of Wi-Fi 7, and 6GHz has just become more widely implemented in devices.

 

I have not heard any specifics about PoE functionality, but given the response to this release - I imagine we will begin to see the feature more widely implemented. I will, however, pass the feedback to our product teams that there is already a desire for PoE devices with 6E/7. I am interested to see how PoE would work with the higher power demand of the 6 GHz range.

 

Is there a specific need for PoE that you can think of? Would additional outdoor options or indoor PoE options be more valuable, in your opinion?

  @Riley_S thanks for the prompt response!

 

I was planning on ordering the 3 pack of indoor POE for a near future, residential new build. These seem like a great option for the basement, garage, upstairs office, etc. where the device will be seen but with a clean ceiling mount.    What has held that up is running into interference in my current setup (M9) and wondering if having the 6 GHz range would solve the problem for now. 

 

I'm not sure how important 6e/7 will be in rural outdoor setups, but my understanding is it may provide for more connectivity in suburban or urban areas. I can see it as a "nice to have".  I may still order the outdoor POE for the build whether 6 or 6e/7.
