TP-Link Tapo H200 Smart Hub

It is basically a smal WiFi hub for the 915 MHz sensors. You have to have it for things like the temperature sensor and i belive door bells (I don't need that, I have a dog). Sub-GHz has better range that 2.4 GHz. It also has a built-in speaker for alarms, door bells etc. Has to be plugged into your router or mesh hub via an ethernet cable. Easy to set up. Seems to have a nice stable communications with my stuff. It is basically a smal WiFi hub for the 915 MHz sensors.

A great, easy to use home automation hub, very easy to set up with the TP-Link Tapo app. Nice to have onboard storage, so cameras can save direct to the hub rather than onto the camera.

Only real complaint is that there isn't an easy way to migrate from the H100 hub to the H200 hub (this model) so all devices have to be reset and added afresh, including all automations.

You must get one of the 2 types of hubs to connect any sensors. Note the range is the same as any wifi even though they advertise Sub-G wifi used in this device as being greater-needs to be quite near a hub and the hub itself needs to be quite near the router or wifi access point. This unit is nearly twice the price of the H100 but has the Ethernet socket to connect to a router or AP if required instead of by wifi.

Perfect for local storage of wireless cctv and connecting other Tapu smart devices at home. Perfect for local storage of wireless cctv and connecting other Tapu smart devices at home.

Reasonably easy to set up on the TAPO app.
I have connected it to several switches and sensors to perform various functions.
Good range, able to work a P100 plug in our detached garage to operate the garden flood lights. Reasonably easy to set up on the TAPO app.
