Description

The TP-Link EAP655-Wall AX3000 Wall Plate WiFi 6 Access Point is designed to provide high-performance wireless networking in modern business and residential environments. Combining WiFi 6 technology, dual-band connectivity and an integrated four-port Gigabit Ethernet switch, it provides a practical networking solution for locations that require reliable wireless access alongside wired device connections.

AX3000 dual-band WiFi 6 connectivity

With support for IEEE 802.11ax WiFi 6, the EAP655-Wall delivers combined theoretical wireless speeds of up to 2976 Mbps. The 2.4 GHz band supports speeds of up to 574 Mbps, while the 5 GHz band provides speeds of up to 2402 Mbps. This dual-band configuration allows compatible wireless devices to connect using the frequency band best suited to their requirements.

WiFi 6 technologies such as OFDMA, 1024-QAM and BSS Coloring help improve network efficiency, particularly in environments where multiple wireless devices share the same network. Beamforming helps direct wireless signals towards connected devices, while band steering can help distribute compatible clients between the available frequency bands.

Four Gigabit Ethernet ports

The access point features four Gigabit Ethernet ports consisting of one uplink port and three downlink ports. This provides additional wired connectivity for devices such as desktop computers, printers, VoIP phones and smart televisions. One of the downlink ports supports PoE pass-through, allowing a compatible device to receive power through its Ethernet connection.

PoE pass-through requires an 802.3at PoE+ input. The maximum PoE pass-through output is 10.5 W for the EU version and 10 W for the US version. This feature can help simplify installations where compatible low-power network devices need to be connected.

Convenient PoE installation

The EAP655-Wall supports IEEE 802.3af/at Power over Ethernet, allowing it to receive power and network connectivity through a single Ethernet cable when connected to a compatible PoE switch or power source. This reduces the need for a separate power connection at the installation point.

Its wall-plate design supports installation with 86 mm, standard EU and standard US wall junction boxes. This makes it suitable for room-by-room wireless deployments in hotels, offices, apartments and other indoor environments.

Centralised Omada SDN management

As part of the TP-Link Omada networking ecosystem, the EAP655-Wall supports centralised management through compatible Omada hardware, software and cloud-based controllers. Network administrators can configure wireless settings, monitor connected clients, manage multiple access points and maintain network settings through a central management platform.

Omada management features include automatic channel assignment, transmission power control, wireless scheduling, load balancing, airtime fairness, band steering and seamless roaming with compatible controllers and devices.

Advanced wireless security

Security features include WPA, WPA2 and WPA3 wireless encryption, 802.1X authentication, VLAN support, access control, wireless client isolation and rogue access point detection. Multiple SSIDs allow administrators to create separate wireless networks for different users and purposes, including guest access and business devices.

The TP-Link EAP655-Wall AX3000 is a suitable choice for businesses and property operators looking for a centrally managed WiFi 6 access point with integrated wired connectivity, PoE installation and professional network management capabilities.
