This page covers TP-Link Deco BE85 exactly: Deco BE85, marketed as Deco 7 Elite BE22000; each unit includes copper and fiber-capable multi-gig interfaces. Wi-Fi 7, BE22000 class simultaneous 2.4GHz, 5GHz and 6GHz bands; twelve streams total with published rates of 1376Mbps, 8640Mbps and 11520Mbps plus 320MHz and MLO. One 10GbE RJ45/SFP+ combo WAN/LAN, one 10GbE RJ45 WAN/LAN, two 2.5GbE WAN/LAN and one USB 3.0 port per unit. The package provides a high-output external adapter per unit; match the exact BE85 label and regional connector rather than using wattage or barrel fit alone.

Onboard and manage the system in the TP-Link Deco mobile app with a TP-Link ID. connect one unit to the modem or upstream gateway, wait for its setup LED state and complete the guided flow in the Deco app before adding satellites. Each unit can lead a Deco network in router mode or operate as an access point/satellite; any auto-sensing port may become WAN on the main unit. TP-Link states that Deco models can share one mesh; features depend on the main Deco, while radio, port and hardware-version limits remain model-specific. TP-Link permits mixed Deco networks, but it recommends using the most capable unit as the main Deco and placing nodes so that wireless or Ethernet backhaul matches the available hardware.

If a unit cannot join or drops offline, verify modem service, the selected main unit, WAN cabling and the app-reported LED state, then reboot before resetting; add a satellite in the app before wiring Ethernet backhaul. TP-Link's Deco reset guidance uses the app's Remove action or a one-second press of the powered unit's reset control; reset erases that unit's configuration. The combo cage accepts either its RJ45 or supported SFP+ path, not two additional independent 10GbE links. 6GHz/320MHz/MLO are region- and client-dependent. The exact-model TP-Link download page is the authority for hardware-version and regional firmware; available revisions, radio channels and services vary by market. Hardware versions and regional firmware can differ under one retail name. Read the version and power label on the underside before choosing a replacement adapter or applying a download intended for another market.
