Key Product Advantages
The TEW-840APBO delivers focused outdoor Wi-Fi coverage with its directional antenna design, optimizing signal strength for targeted areas rather than omnidirectional spread. This makes it ideal for point-to-point links or covering specific outdoor zones without wasteful signal dispersion.
Simplified Power Delivery
PoE support eliminates the need for separate power outlets near the installation site, reducing cabling complexity and enabling placement in hard-to-reach outdoor locations.
- Uses standard Ethernet cable for both data and power
- Compatible with 24V DC passive PoE injectors
- Reduces installation time and material costs
Robust Construction
Built for outdoor durability, this access point withstands environmental factors while maintaining consistent wireless performance in commercial settings.
- Compact, weather-resistant design
- Lightweight at 9.45 oz for easy mounting
- Stable operation across temperature variations
Deployment / Use Cases
The TRENDnet TEW-840APBO is particularly effective in business environments where outdoor Wi-Fi coverage is required but traditional indoor access points fall short. Its directional antenna and PoE capabilities make it a practical solution for extending network boundaries beyond building walls.
Common deployment scenarios include providing wireless connectivity to outdoor seating areas at restaurants and cafes, enabling Wi-Fi for security cameras in parking facilities, establishing temporary network access at construction sites, and creating guest Wi-Fi zones in hotel courtyards or campus quads.
Perimeter Security Integration
Deploy alongside IP cameras and security systems to provide wireless backhaul for surveillance networks, eliminating the need for extensive wired infrastructure in outdoor areas.
Outdoor Workspace Extension
Extend corporate network access to patios, loading docks, and outdoor break areas, supporting employee productivity in facilities with limited indoor space.
Physical Profile
With dimensions of 1.40" × 3.90" × 7.30" (35.56 × 99.06 × 185.42 mm) and a weight of 9.45 oz (268 g), the TEW-840APBO presents a compact footprint suitable for discreet outdoor mounting. The wall and pole mounting options provide installation flexibility, while the lightweight design reduces stress on mounting hardware and structures.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.40" (35.56 mm), 3.90" (99.06 mm), 7.30" (185.42 mm), 9.45 oz (268 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.

User Manual
FAQ
What wireless standards does this access point support?
The TRENDnet TEW-840APBO supports the IEEE 802.11ac wireless standard, which provides faster speeds and better performance compared to previous 802.11n technology. It operates on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands, allowing for flexible channel selection to avoid interference and optimize network performance in different environments.
Does this access point support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
Yes, this access point includes a PoE PD (Powered Device) port that supports Power over Ethernet. This allows the device to receive both data and electrical power over a single Ethernet cable, simplifying installation by eliminating the need for a separate power outlet near the mounting location. The package includes a proprietary/passive PoE injector (24V DC, 0.6A) to provide power from a standard network switch or router.
What type of antenna does this access point use?
This access point features a 14 dBi directional antenna designed specifically for outdoor use. Directional antennas focus wireless signals in a particular direction rather than broadcasting omnidirectionally, making this model ideal for covering specific outdoor areas or establishing point-to-point wireless links. The high gain (14 dBi) provides stronger signal strength over distance compared to standard omnidirectional antennas.
How many Ethernet ports does this access point have?
The TRENDnet TEW-840APBO includes two Gigabit Ethernet ports. These ports support wired network connections at speeds up to 1000 Mbps, providing options for connecting additional network devices or establishing wired backhaul connections. One of these ports supports PoE for both power and data delivery, while both ports maintain Gigabit Ethernet performance for high-speed network traffic.
What mounting options are available for this access point?
This access point supports both wall mounting and pole mounting, providing flexibility for different outdoor installation scenarios. The compact design (1.40" × 3.90" × 7.30") and lightweight construction (9.45 oz) make it suitable for mounting on various surfaces without requiring heavy-duty hardware. The package includes all necessary mounting hardware for immediate installation.
What is included in the package with this access point?
The package contains the 14 dBi WiFi AC867 Outdoor Directional PoE Access Point unit, a quick installation guide for setup assistance, a proprietary/passive PoE injector (24V DC, 0.6A) for power delivery over Ethernet, and all necessary mounting hardware. These components provide everything needed for immediate deployment without requiring additional purchases for basic installation.
