Description

A directional antenna that sends the signal far

The 23 dBi directional antenna focuses the signal into a narrow beam, so the link reaches further than with a typical omnidirectional antenna. The manufacturer highlights strong beam directivity, lower latency and noise cancellation, which is exactly what a stable link between two buildings needs. Snap-lock parts make assembly quick, and the rigid structure keeps the unit steady even in strong winds.

Who this access point is for

Anyone who wants to bring internet to an outbuilding, warehouse, workshop or summer house without digging a cable trench. Internet providers and network administrators will value Pharos Control, which manages many units from one place. Passive PoE carries power over the same cable as the data, so no power socket is needed at the mast.

Questions & answers

How far does the link reach?

The manufacturer does not specify an exact distance. The 23 dBi directional antenna is designed for long distances, but real range depends on line of sight, trees and buildings, and on the device at the other end.

Is the CPE710 suitable for year-round outdoor use?

Yes. The IP65 enclosure protects against dust and water jets, and 15 kV ESD and 6 kV lightning protection reduce the risk of damage from static and storms.

How are the units managed?

With TP-Link Pharos Control, a free centralized management system from which an administrator monitors and configures several CPEs at once.
