TP-Link CPE220 2.4GHz Outdoor Wireless Access Point

The TP-Link CPE220 is a compact outdoor wireless access point built for long-distance 2.4GHz links. It has a built-in 12dBi directional antenna and delivers up to 300Mbps wireless speed. It suits point-to-point bridges of up to around 1.5Km, depending on line of sight and conditions. If you are looking for a reliable TP-Link access point for outdoor use, this is a practical choice.

The weatherproof enclosure, 15KV ESD protection and 6KV lightning protection help it run in harsh outdoor conditions. It works well for connecting buildings, extending internet to a shop or farm, or setting up a wireless CCTV link without running long cables.

Key Features

• Built-in 12dBi 2x2 dual-polarized directional antenna: focuses the signal in one direction for a stronger, more stable long-distance link.
• Up to 300Mbps wireless rate (40MHz): supports smooth data transfer for browsing, video calls and IP camera streams.
• Point-to-point design for up to 1.5Km: lets you connect two locations wirelessly without trenching cable.
