The 2.5GbE port allows the access point to pass up to 2.5Gbps of traffic to the upstream switch, eliminating this bottleneck. To take full advantage, your upstream switch must also have a 2.5GbE port (e.g. TP-Link TL-SG105-M2 or a multi-gig switch).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is Omada SDN and do I need a controller?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOmada SDN is TP-Link's centralised network management platform. The EAP660 HD can be managed via the Omada cloud (no hardware controller required), a hardware Omada controller (OC300\/OC200), or a software controller on a local server or Raspberry Pi. Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP) allows the AP to be pre-configured in the cloud and automatically download its configuration when connected on site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat PoE switch is required to power the EAP660 HD?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EAP660 HD requires 802.3at PoE+ (up to 21.5W). Ensure your PoE switch supports 802.3at on the connected port. Standard 802.3af (15.4W) PoE is insufficient. For the 2.5GbE port to operate at full speed, the switch port must also support 2.5GbE — otherwise it will negotiate down to 1Gbps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow many users can the EAP660 HD support simultaneously?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EAP660 HD is designed for high-density environments and can support a large number of concurrent users thanks to Wi-Fi 6 OFDMA and MU-MIMO technology. TP-Link rates it for 4× increased capacity compared to Wi-Fi 5. Practical concurrent user counts depend on usage patterns, but it is well-suited for venues with 50–100+ simultaneous connected devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it support seamless roaming between multiple access points?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. When managed via Omada SDN, multiple EAP660 HD units (or other Omada APs) form a unified wireless network with seamless roaming. Devices automatically hand off between access points as users move through the venue without dropping connections — video streams and voice calls remain uninterrupted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I set up a guest Wi-Fi network with a captive portal?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The EAP660 HD supports guest network isolation and multiple captive portal authentication methods including SMS verification, Facebook Wi-Fi, and voucher-based access — all configurable via the Omada controller or cloud. This is ideal for hotels, cafes, retail stores, and any venue offering public Wi-Fi.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TP-Link","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43198351409381,"sku":"EAP660 HD","price":361.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/1554\/1221\/files\/p-link-omada-eap660-hd-ax3600-ceiling-mount-access-point.webp?v=1779692638","url":"https:\/\/cctvguru.com.au\/products\/tp-link-eap660-hd-ax3600-wifi-6-ceiling-mount-access-point","provider":"CCTV Guru","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
