TP-Link Omada 5-Port Gigabit Smart Switch, 1-Port PoE++ In, 4-Port PoE+ Out, Cloud-Managed, Managed L2/L2+, White

TP-Link Omada 5-Port Gigabit Smart Switch – Extended PoE Outdoor Connectivity

Deploying network hardware outdoors can present power challenges, but our TP-Link Omada 5-Port Gigabit Smart Switch, 1-Port PoE++ In, 4-Port PoE+ Out, Cloud-Managed, Managed L2/L2+, White solves this effortlessly. This hardware suits network administrators and site installers needing reliable outdoor expansion without local mains wiring. Because it supports standard PoE passthrough, you can extend power and data transmission distance up to 200 metres.

Weatherproof Construction for Tough Outdoor Deployments

External environments require robust hardware protection. We supply this unit in a resilient weatherproof enclosure rated to IP55 standards. Because of this durable build, the hardware resists harsh outdoor conditions reliably. You can place the unit securely inside external junction boxes or mount it directly to walls and poles using the supplied kits.

Flexible Power Passthrough and Intelligent Budgeting

Eliminate traditional mains access limits completely. The single Gigabit PoE++ input port receives power from upstream sources and distributes it across four Gigabit PoE+ output ports. In practice, the device automatically detects your connected hardware requirements. This smart detection safeguards your non-PoE equipment from potential damage while managing the total power budget effectively.

Centralised Cloud Management via Omada SDN

Maintaining large network deployments requires unified control. This hardware integrates smoothly into the Omada Software Defined Networking platform. Because the system offers 100% centralised cloud management, you can configure and monitor switches, gateways, and access points from a single interface. Such centralisation helps you scale your network effortlessly as site demands grow.

Advanced Layer 2 and Layer 2 Plus Traffic Control

Granular network control keeps data flowing smoothly. The switch supports static routing to direct internal traffic efficiently across your infrastructure. Also, built-in Access Control Lists allow you to enforce strict user-defined security regulations. You can rely on these administrative tools to lock down access and protect sensitive data streams.

Prioritising Latency-Sensitive Traffic

Voice and video applications demand consistent bandwidth. Quality of Service support lets you designate traffic priorities across your connected devices. Because high-priority packets skip congestion bottlenecks, your critical communications remain clear and lag-free. Furthermore, VLAN support helps group physical devices logically to reduce data congestion.

Worth Checking First

• Confirm your upstream switch or injector supports standard PoE++ output to power this unit.
• Confirm your connected devices match the available per-port PoE budget limits.
• Confirm your mounting surface suits the supplied wall or pole installation kits.
