Product Features
Technical Overview
At its core, the CPE710 leverages the IEEE 802.11a/n/ac wireless standard to achieve efficient 5 GHz communication with minimal interference. The 80 MHz channel bandwidth and 256 QAM modulation work in tandem with the dual-stream MIMO architecture to maximize data rates up to 867 Mbps. The integrated directional antenna system focuses signal energy into a narrow beam, enhancing directivity for extended range and improved noise immunity compared to omnidirectional access points.
Network security is robust, supporting a comprehensive suite of encryption protocols including WPA, WPA2, WPA-PSK, and WPA2-PSK with AES and TKIP algorithms. This ensures secure data transmission for business and institutional applications. The single Gigabit Ethernet port provides a high-speed wired backbone connection, while the integrated PoE PD port accepts power from a compatible injector or switch, eliminating the need for a separate AC power source at the installation site.
Key Product Advantages
The CPE710 stands out in outdoor wireless bridging with its combination of high performance, durability, and manageability. Its focused antenna design and advanced radio technology deliver reliable links over distances where standard Wi-Fi would fail, making it a versatile tool for network expansion.
Long-Range Connectivity
The 23 dBi directional antenna and optimized 5 GHz radio provide excellent beam directivity, reducing latency and improving signal integrity for stable long-distance connections up to several kilometers in clear line-of-sight conditions.
Centralized Management
Included Pharos Control software offers a web-based management interface (PharOS) for centralized configuration, monitoring, and firmware updates across multiple CPE units, streamlining administration for IT professionals.
Rugged Outdoor Design
The IP65 weatherproof housing, along with extensive surge protection, ensures reliable year-round operation in rain, snow, dust, and temperature extremes, reducing maintenance needs and downtime.
Deployment / Use Cases
This wireless bridge is tailored for scenarios requiring reliable outdoor connectivity without the expense and complexity of running fiber or copper cabling. Its pole-mountable form factor and flexible alignment options allow it to be installed on rooftops, towers, or walls with clear sightlines between endpoints.
Typical applications include connecting separate buildings on a corporate campus, providing internet access to remote facilities like barns or guard shacks, establishing temporary network links for events or construction sites, and creating backbone links for wireless ISP (WISP) networks. The CPE710 is also effective for surveillance systems, linking IP cameras back to a central network recorder over long distances.
Campus & Building-to-Building Links
Establish high-speed wireless bridges between offices, warehouses, or educational buildings to unify networks and share resources like internet access and servers.
Remote Area Connectivity
Extend network coverage to outbuildings, rural properties, or temporary sites where trenching cables is cost-prohibitive or impossible, providing reliable broadband connectivity.
Physical Profile
The CPE710 features a compact, aerodynamic design measuring 14.41" wide by 11.02" deep by 8.15" high (366 x 280 x 207 mm), engineered to withstand wind loads and environmental stress. Its snap-lock assembly simplifies field installation, while the included pole mount kits and three-axis adjustment provide precise alignment for optimal signal strength. The sturdy construction ensures stability in windy conditions, and the white exterior helps reflect solar heat to maintain internal component reliability.

User Manual
FAQ
What is the maximum wireless speed of the TP-Link CPE710?
The CPE710 delivers up to 867 Mbps throughput using the IEEE 802.11ac standard on the 5 GHz band. This speed is achieved through a combination of 2×2 MIMO technology, 80 MHz channel bandwidth, and 256 QAM modulation, making it suitable for high-bandwidth applications like video surveillance or inter-building data transfers.
Does this wireless bridge support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
Yes, the CPE710 includes a PoE PD (Powered Device) port. It can be powered by a compatible passive PoE injector or switch (24V 0.5A), allowing both data and power to be delivered over a single Ethernet cable. This simplifies installation in remote or elevated locations where AC power outlets are unavailable.
What type of antenna does the CPE710 use, and what is its gain?
It features an integrated 23 dBi directional 2×2 MIMO antenna. This high-gain antenna focuses the wireless signal into a narrow beam, providing excellent directivity for long-range connections while improving noise immunity and reducing interference compared to standard omnidirectional antennas.
