Description
The TP-Link Omada Fusion 2.5G PoE Gateway is an advanced integrated networking solution developed for businesses that require high-speed wired connectivity, centralised management and comprehensive network security. It combines the functionality of a business gateway and Omada controller, allowing network administrators to manage compatible Omada networking equipment from a unified management platform.
High-speed 2.5GbE connectivity
The gateway features 9 x 2.5G RJ45 Ethernet ports, consisting of 1 dedicated WAN port and 8 configurable LAN/WAN ports. These multi-gigabit interfaces provide high-speed connectivity for compatible network switches, wireless access points, servers, network storage and other wired devices. The eight configurable WAN/LAN ports also provide flexibility when expanding network connections or implementing multi-WAN configurations.
Integrated PoE+ power delivery
Eight Ethernet ports support Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+), providing a combined power budget of 110W. This allows compatible powered devices, including network access points, to receive both network connectivity and electrical power through a single Ethernet cable. By reducing the need for separate power supplies at connected devices, the gateway helps simplify network installations and cable management.
Advanced multi-WAN networking
With support for up to eight simultaneous WAN connections, the Fusion 2.5G PoE offers flexible internet connectivity for business environments. Multi-WAN load balancing distributes network traffic across available internet connections, while automatic failover helps maintain connectivity when an internet connection becomes unavailable. This functionality is particularly useful for businesses that depend on continuous internet access.
Centralised Omada network management
The integrated Omada controller provides centralised management for compatible Omada networking devices. Administrators can monitor network performance, view connected clients, manage devices and configure network settings through the Omada Network Application and Omada App. Cloud access enables remote management, while Bluetooth-assisted onboarding simplifies initial installation and device adoption.
Advanced network security
Security features include intrusion detection and prevention (IDS/IPS), deep packet inspection (DPI), firewall protection, application-based access control, content filtering, ad blocking, Safe Search, DNS security and ARP inspection. These tools help administrators manage network access, monitor traffic and protect business network environments.
VPN and multi-site connectivity
The gateway supports several VPN technologies, including WireGuard, IPsec, OpenVPN, SSL VPN, L2TP and PPTP, depending on the VPN operating mode. Omada LightLink VPN provides simplified secure remote access, while Full Mesh SD-WAN enables connectivity between multiple business locations. These capabilities make the gateway suitable for businesses with remote employees, branch offices and distributed network infrastructure.
Touchscreen and flexible installation
The integrated 3.69-inch touchscreen provides convenient access to device information and troubleshooting functions without requiring every task to be performed remotely. The compact polycarbonate enclosure supports desktop installation, with optional mounting accessories available for wall-mounted and rack-mounted installations.
The TP-Link Omada Fusion 2.5G PoE Gateway is a comprehensive networking platform for small and medium-sized businesses looking to consolidate routing, PoE power delivery, network management and security into one professional networking device.
