Product Overview
The TP-Link EAP655-Wall AX3000 Wall Plate Access Point is a compact, wall-mounted enterprise access point designed to provide strong WiFi coverage and wired connectivity directly from a wall outlet. It’s especially ideal for hotels, apartments, dormitories, and office rooms, where clean installation and per-room networking are important.
Powered by WiFi 6 (802.11ax), the EAP655-Wall delivers AX3000 speeds (up to ~2976 Mbps), ensuring fast and stable connections for streaming, video calls, gaming, and multiple connected devices. It uses a dual-band setup, with high-speed 5GHz for performance tasks and 2.4GHz for wider coverage and IoT devices.
What makes this device unique is its wall plate design, which replaces or mounts over a standard Ethernet wall outlet. This allows you to provide both WiFi coverage and wired connections directly inside individual rooms—perfect for structured deployments like hotels or office partitions.
In addition to wireless connectivity, it includes multiple Gigabit Ethernet ports, allowing you to connect devices such as smart TVs, IP phones, desktop PCs, or IPTV boxes directly via cable. One of these ports also supports PoE passthrough, meaning it can power another device like an IP phone without needing an extra power source.
The EAP655-Wall supports PoE (Power over Ethernet) for its own operation, so it only requires a single Ethernet cable for both power and data—keeping installations clean and efficient.
As part of the Omada SDN ecosystem, it can be centrally managed along with other TP-Link devices such as switches and routers. This allows administrators to configure, monitor, and optimize multiple access points from a single dashboard, either locally or via cloud access.
It also supports seamless roaming, ensuring users can move between rooms or areas without losing connection, making it ideal for hospitality and multi-room environments.
Security features include WPA3 encryption, guest networks, VLAN support, and captive portal options, ensuring safe and controlled network access for both private and public users.
