TP-Link EAP100-Bridge KIT 2.4GHz Wireless Bridge – 300Mbps Point-to-Point

TP-Link EAP100-Bridge KIT 2.4GHz Point-to-Point Wireless Bridge

The TP-Link EAP100-Bridge KIT provides a convenient way to connect separate locations wirelessly when installing Ethernet or fibre cabling isn't practical. Operating on the 2.4GHz band with wireless speeds of up to 300Mbps, the bridge is designed for point-to-point connections over distances of up to 500 metres under suitable line-of-sight conditions.

With a preconfigured two-unit design, the EAP100-Bridge KIT is built to make deployment straightforward. Automatic pairing and signal indicators help simplify installation, while app-guided alignment can assist with positioning the units for a suitable wireless connection.

Each bridge provides three 10/100Mbps Ethernet ports, allowing compatible cameras, switches and other network devices to be connected directly. Its IP65-rated enclosure and 6kV lightning protection also make it suitable for appropriate outdoor networking installations.

Key Features

• Preconfigured Bridge Kit – Designed for easier deployment between two locations.

• Automatic Pairing – Helps establish the bridge connection with minimal setup.

• LED Signal Indicators – Assists with wireless positioning and alignment.

• App-Guided Alignment – Helps installers optimise the wireless link during deployment.

• 3 × Fast Ethernet Ports – Each unit provides three 10/100Mbps RJ45 ports for wired devices.

• Multiple Power Options – Supports 802.3af PoE, 24V passive PoE and 12V DC.

• IP65 Outdoor Protection – Designed for suitable outdoor installations.

• 6kV Lightning Protection – Provides additional protection for outdoor deployments.

• Wide Operating Temperature Range – Supports operation from -40°C to +70°C.

• Omada Management Support – Can operate independently or be managed through compatible Omada solutions.

Wireless Connectivity Between Separate Locations

The EAP100-Bridge KIT is designed for situations where you need to extend a network from one location to another without installing a long physical cable.

Install one bridge at each end of the connection to create a wireless point-to-point link. This makes the system suitable for applications such as:

• Connecting buildings and outbuildings

• Remote CCTV installations

• Farm and rural property networking

• Warehouse and industrial sites

• Car park surveillance

• Outdoor sensors and network devices

• Temporary network installations

• Remote equipment connections

Simple Deployment

The two bridge units are supplied as a preconfigured kit, helping reduce the amount of setup required before installation.

Automatic pairing allows the units to establish their wireless connection, while the built-in LED indicators can assist installers when positioning and aligning the bridge units.

The compatible mobile app can also provide guided alignment and speed testing, helping verify the connection during installation.

Up to 500m Wireless Link

Operating at 2.4GHz, the EAP100-Bridge supports wireless speeds of up to 300Mbps and a stated point-to-point range of up to 500 metres under suitable line-of-sight conditions.

The actual range and throughput will depend on factors such as distance, antenna alignment, obstructions, interference, environmental conditions and network traffic.

Three Ethernet Ports Per Unit

Each bridge unit includes 3 × 10/100Mbps Ethernet ports, providing convenient wired connectivity for equipment at either end of the wireless link.

This allows compatible devices such as the following to be connected directly:

• IP cameras

• Network switches

• Computers

• Network sensors

• Other Ethernet-enabled devices

The additional Ethernet ports can be particularly useful for CCTV and remote networking installations where several devices need to share the wireless connection.

Flexible Power Options

The EAP100-Bridge supports multiple power methods, providing flexibility when planning different types of installations.

Supported options include:

• 802.3af PoE

• 24V passive PoE

• 12V DC

This flexibility can be useful for installations where conventional power access is limited or where compatible alternative power arrangements are required.

Built for Outdoor Environments

The IP65-rated enclosure is designed to provide protection against dust and water ingress for suitable outdoor deployments.

The bridge also includes 6kV lightning protection and supports an operating temperature range of -40°C to +70°C, making it suitable for a wide range of environmental conditions when correctly installed.

Pole- and wall-mounting hardware is included to provide flexible installation options.

Omada Management

The EAP100-Bridge KIT can be used in Standalone mode or integrated with compatible Omada SDN management solutions.

Depending on the deployment, administrators can use supported web, mobile app or Omada controller-based management options for configuration and monitoring.

Important Information

*The 500m range is a maximum stated distance under suitable line-of-sight conditions. Actual wireless range and performance can vary depending on installation height, obstructions, antenna alignment, interference, environmental conditions and network configuration.

The 300Mbps figure represents the maximum theoretical wireless link rate. Actual data throughput will vary depending on signal conditions, connected equipment, network traffic and other environmental factors.

For best results, both bridge units should be installed with a suitable clear line of sight and correctly aligned toward each other.
