Powered entirely via a single PoE Ethernet cable — no power outlet required at the mounting point — it can be ceiling-mounted, wall-mounted, or placed on a desk, making it the ideal choice for offices, hospitality venues, schools, and homes where aesthetics and flexibility matter. A 2.5G multi-gigabit port breaks through the 1Gbps wired bottleneck, and AI-driven mesh intelligence ensures seamless roaming across all Deco nodes with a single Wi-Fi name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAX3000 Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax)\u003c\/strong\u003e — Up to 2402Mbps on 5GHz and 574Mbps on 2.4GHz for combined wireless throughput of 3000Mbps — fast enough for 8K streaming, cloud gaming, and dozens of simultaneous devices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoE Powered\u003c\/strong\u003e — Powered via a single Ethernet cable (PoE) from a compatible PoE switch or injector — no power outlet required at the installation point, enabling clean ceiling and wall mounting without visible cabling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2.5G Multi-Gigabit Port\u003c\/strong\u003e — Breaks through the 1Gbps wired bottleneck for backhaul or wired device connections;

The Deco X50-PoE also accepts DC power via the included power adapter if PoE is not available at the installation point. Check the datasheet for the exact power consumption figure to ensure your PoE switch or injector has sufficient budget.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I mix the Deco X50-PoE with other Deco models in the same mesh?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The Deco X50-PoE is compatible with all other TP-Link Deco models. You can mix and match Deco nodes — for example, using a Deco X50-PoE as a ceiling-mounted node in a hallway alongside a standard Deco X50 on a desk in the living room — and they will all operate as a single unified mesh network.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the 2.5G port need to be used for PoE power?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The 2.5G port and the PoE power input are separate. The Deco X50-PoE receives PoE power through its dedicated PoE input port (which also carries data). The 2.5G port can be used independently for wired backhaul to a 2.5G switch or for connecting a wired device at 2.5G speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the Deco X50-PoE suitable for NBN 1000 plans?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Deco X50-PoE’s 2.5G port supports wired backhaul speeds beyond 1Gbps, making it well-suited for NBN 1000 plans when connected via the 2.5G port to a 2.5G-capable modem or switch. Wireless throughput in real-world conditions will vary; for maximum wireless performance on NBN 1000, ensure your client devices support Wi-Fi 6 and are within good range of the node.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan the Deco X50-PoE be used as a standalone access point without a Deco router?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Deco X50-PoE is designed to operate as part of a Deco mesh system. It can function as the primary Deco node (connected directly to your modem) or as a satellite node in an existing Deco mesh. It does not operate as a standalone access point in the traditional sense — a Deco app account and at least one primary Deco node are required for setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs HomeShield free?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBasic HomeShield features including network scanning, simple parental controls, and new device notifications are available at no cost. Advanced features such as detailed content filtering, real-time threat intelligence, and comprehensive usage reports require a HomeShield Pro subscription, managed through the Deco app.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TP-Link","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44385944600805,"sku":"Deco X50-PoE(1-pack)","price":229.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/1554\/1221\/files\/tp-link-deco-x50-poe-ax3000-whole-home-mesh-wifi-6-system.png?v=1779784372","url":"https:\/\/cctvguru.com.au\/products\/tp-link-deco-x50-poe-ax3000-wifi-6-mesh-node-poe-2-5g","provider":"CCTV Guru","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
