The TP-LINK CPE510 outdoor 300 Mbps CPE device has been created in order to provide an efficient solution for outdoor wireless networks. It employs high-power transmitter with maximum output power of 27 dBm, sensitive receiver and integrated directional MIMO 2x2 antenna with 13 dBi gain. With a central management system, the CPE510 devices are ideal for point-to-point and point-to-multipoint Wi-Fi connections. The professional performance combined with ease of use make them a great choice both for business and home applications.
Key features:
- Built-in directional MIMO 2x2 antenna with 13 dBi gain
- Adjustable transmission power
- Optimization for long-range links
- TP-LINK Pharos MAXtream TDMA platform increases throughput and minimizes latency in point-to-multipoint applications
- Centralized management system - Pharos Control
- Access Point / Client / Repeater / AP Router / WISP operation modes
- The included passive PoE adapter allows for placement of the device up to 60 meters from an AC outlet and for remote reset
Thanks to Qualcomm Atheros chipsets, high-gain antennas, high-quality materials, specially designed enclosure, and PoE technology, the CPE510 AP can reliably operate in most climate zones, from -30℃ to +70℃ . The advanced, high power transmitter (Tx output power up to 27 dBm / 500 mW) and highly sensitive receiver (Rx sensitivity up to -95 dBm) enable users to overcome the range barriers of traditional Wi-Fi networks.

Along with increasing number of wireless devices in the area, the networking parameters worsen, due to the competition and collisions among the devices. To mitigate this problem, CPE510 uses TP-LINK MAXtream TDMA platform.
The specially designed outdoor AP is ideal for long-distance wireless links, even over distances longer than 15 km. Pharos Control software allows the administrator to easily manage all the CPE510 devices in the network from a single PC. The functions of the software include searching of the devices, monitoring of their statuses, firmware upgrading, network maintenance.
