Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Which PoE Injectors / Power Supplies or Ethernet Switch do I need for the TP-Link EAP773?
You need an Ethernet Switch that supports the 802.3at (PoE+) standard. To utilize the full 10-Gbit/s speed of the port, the Ethernet Switch should also have a Multi-Gigabit port (ideally 10 GbE) for your Network.
Can I operate the TP-Link Omada EAP773 without an Omada Controller?
Yes, the WiFi Access Point can be fully configured and managed in standalone mode via its own web user interface. However, functions like Mesh or central roaming require a TP-Link Omada SDN Controller for optimal Network management.
What is the main difference between the EU (BE9300) and US (BE11000) models of this TP-Link WiFi Access Point?
The main difference lies in the maximum speed of the 5 GHz Components band. The US model supports wider 240 MHz channels on 5 GHz, which increases the theoretical speed from 2880 Mbps to 4320 Mbps, enhancing your overall Network performance.
What exactly is the advantage of MLO (Multi-Link Operation) for a modern Network?
MLO is a core feature of WiFi 7. It allows a client to simultaneously send and receive data over the 5 GHz Components and 60 GHz Components bands. This leads to significantly higher overall speed and lower latency within your Network.
Is the TP-Link EAP773 suitable for home use?
Although it technically also works at home, this WiFi Access Point is designed for professional environments. It requires technical knowledge for configuration and the necessity of a PoE Injectors / Power Supplies enabled Ethernet Switch to build a reliable Network.
Does the TP-Link EAP773 support WPA3 encryption?
Yes, the EAP773 supports the latest security standards, including WPA3-Personal and WPA3-Enterprise, to ensure a high level of Network security.
