Description
Reliable Long-Range Wireless Bridging for Australian Businesses
The TP-Link Omada Beam Bridge 5 UR Kit delivers high-throughput, low-latency 5 GHz point-to-point wireless connectivity — purpose-built for outdoor deployments where running cable isn't practical. Whether you're linking buildings across a campus, extending network coverage to a remote site, or backhauling CCTV footage over distance, the Beam Bridge 5 UR Kit provides a stable, weatherproof solution that integrates seamlessly into the Omada SDN ecosystem.
Key Features
-
5 GHz Dedicated Backhaul: Operates on the less congested 5 GHz band for cleaner, faster point-to-point links with reduced interference.
-
High-Gain Directional Antennas: Integrated high-gain beam antennas focus signal precisely between two endpoints, maximising range and throughput.
-
Weatherproof IP67 Enclosure: Rated for harsh outdoor environments — dust-tight and protected against water immersion, suitable for Australian conditions.
-
Omada SDN Integration: Centrally managed via Omada Controller (hardware, software, or cloud-based) for unified network visibility and zero-touch provisioning.
-
PoE Powered: Powered over Ethernet — simplifies installation by eliminating the need for a separate power run to each unit.
-
Easy Alignment: Built-in signal strength indicators assist with precise antenna alignment during installation.
-
Gigabit Ethernet Port: Wired LAN port supports full gigabit throughput to connected devices or switches.
Use Cases
-
Building-to-Building Links: Connect separate structures on a business campus, industrial site, or school without trenching fibre or conduit.
-
CCTV Backhaul: Reliably transport high-definition surveillance footage from remote cameras or NVRs back to a central recording location.
-
Remote Site Connectivity: Extend LAN access to warehouses, car parks, outbuildings, or rural facilities.
-
Temporary Network Links: Deploy fast, temporary connectivity for events, construction sites, or pop-up locations.
-
ISP Last-Mile Delivery: Suitable for fixed wireless access deployments where fibre is unavailable.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in the UR Kit?
The UR Kit includes two Beam Bridge 5 units — everything you need for a complete point-to-point wireless link. Each unit comes with a PoE adapter and mounting hardware.
Does the Beam Bridge 5 require an Omada Controller?
The Beam Bridge 5 can be configured in standalone mode via its local web interface, or managed centrally through the Omada Controller (cloud, software, or OC300/OC200 hardware controller). Controller-based management is recommended for multi-site deployments.
What is the maximum link distance?
Maximum range varies by environment and regulatory settings. Under optimal line-of-sight conditions, the Beam Bridge 5 supports links up to several kilometres. Refer to the official datasheet for region-specific range figures.
Is the Beam Bridge 5 UR Kit suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?
Yes. The IP67-rated enclosure protects against dust ingress and water immersion, and the unit is rated to operate between -30°C and 70°C — well suited to Australian climate extremes.
Can I use the Beam Bridge 5 with my existing Omada network?
Yes. The Beam Bridge 5 integrates with the Omada SDN platform alongside Omada switches, routers, and access points for unified management.
