Question

Hello Rabbi, can a person who prays at dawn put on tefillin at home? In other words, from what time can one put on tefillin?

Answer

Hello Rabbi 

The time for donning is approximately 50 minutes before sunrise. Some are lenient, allowing it an hour before sunrise. 

Source

Shulchan Aruch, Orach Chaim, Siman 30, סעיף 1
The time for donning in the morning is when one can see his acquaintance at a distance of four cubits and recognize him.

This is the time mentioned in Siman 18, regarding the wrapping of the tallit.
