TP-Link Omada EAP770 — Wi-Fi 7 Ceiling Mount Access Point for Business
The TP-Link Omada EAP770 brings Wi-Fi 7 to the enterprise ceiling mount access point category, delivering BE9300 tri-band speeds, Multi-Link Operation (MLO), and a 2.5G PoE+ uplink in a sleek, low-profile design. Built for high-density business environments — offices, schools, hotels, healthcare facilities, and retail spaces — the EAP770 handles hundreds of simultaneous client connections with the efficiency and reliability that Wi-Fi 7 enables. Managed natively within the Omada SDN platform, it gives IT administrators centralised control over their entire network from a single interface, with no per-device licensing fees.

Advanced Security — WPA3, WPA2-Enterprise, and 802.1X port authentication for secure, standards-compliant wireless access in corporate and education environments.
-
Multiple SSIDs — Supports up to 16 SSIDs (8 per radio) for separating staff, guest, IoT, and management traffic on a single access point.
-
Band Steering & Airtime Fairness — Automatically guides clients to the optimal band and prevents slower devices from monopolising airtime in mixed-device environments.
-
Discreet Ceiling-Mount Design — Low-profile white housing blends into commercial ceilings with a secure tool-assisted mounting bracket.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the EAP770 and the EAP723?
The EAP770 is a Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) access point, while the EAP723 is a Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) access point. The EAP770 adds the 6 GHz band, Multi-Link Operation (MLO), 4K-QAM, and 320 MHz channel support — delivering significantly lower latency and higher peak throughput for Wi-Fi 7-capable client devices. Both share the same 2.5G PoE+ uplink and Omada SDN management platform. The EAP770 is the recommended choice for new deployments where future-proofing and Wi-Fi 7 client support are priorities.
Does the EAP770 require a PoE switch or injector?
Yes. The EAP770 is powered via PoE+ (802.3at, 25.5W) over its 2.5G uplink port. You will need a compatible PoE+ switch port or a standalone PoE+ injector such as the Omada POE5460X. A power adaptor is not included or supported.
Can the EAP770 be managed without the Omada Controller?
Yes. The EAP770 supports standalone mode for single-unit deployments, managed via a local web browser interface. For multi-AP sites, centralised management via the Omada Software Controller, OC300 Hardware Controller, or Omada Cloud is strongly recommended to enable seamless roaming, bulk configuration, and unified monitoring across all access points.
Do existing Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 5 devices benefit from the EAP770?
Yes. The EAP770 is fully backwards compatible with Wi-Fi 6, Wi-Fi 5, and older wireless standards. All existing devices connect and operate normally on the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Wi-Fi 7-specific features such as MLO are only available to Wi-Fi 7-compatible client devices, but all devices benefit from the EAP770’s improved network management, OFDMA efficiency, and reduced congestion.
Does the EAP770 support WPA3 and enterprise security?
Yes. The EAP770 supports WPA3 and WPA2 personal and enterprise security modes, including 802.1X port-based authentication for integration with RADIUS servers in corporate, education, and healthcare environments.
Is the EAP770 compatible with existing Omada network equipment?
Yes. The EAP770 integrates fully with the Omada SDN ecosystem, including Omada routers, switches, and other access points (including Wi-Fi 6 EAPs). It can be managed alongside existing Omada devices from a single controller interface with no additional licensing fees, making it straightforward to introduce Wi-Fi 7 into an existing Omada deployment incrementally.
