TP-Link was founded in 1996 by two brothers, Zhao Jianjun and Zhao Jiaxing, to produce and market a network card they had developed. The company name was based on the concept of ''twisted pair link'' invented by Alexander Graham Bell, a kind of cabling that reduces electromagnetic interference, hence the ''TP'' in the company name.
TP-Link began its first international expansion in 2005. In 2007, the company moved into its new 100,000-square-meter headquarters and facilities at Shenzhen's Hi-Tech Industry Park. TP-LINK USA was established in 2008.
TP-Link is a global provider of reliable networking devices and accessories, involved in all aspects of everyday life. The company is consistently ranked by analyst firm IDC as the No. 1 provider of Wi-Fi devices, supplying distribution to more than 170 countries and serving billions of people worldwide.
With a proven heritage of stability, performance and value, TP-Link has curated a portfolio of products that meet the networking needs of all individuals. Now, as the connected lifestyle continues to evolve, the company is expanding today to exceed the demands of tomorrow.
