Outdoor Wi-Fi 6 access point
The TP-Link EAP603-Outdoor is a dual-band Wi-Fi 6 access point built for exterior environments. It supports up to 250+ concurrent users and delivers AX1800 wireless data rates across 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. The IP65-rated enclosure operates from -30 °C to 70 °C, making it suitable for pole or wall mounting in exposed locations. It is designed for businesses needing reliable outdoor coverage without running separate power lines.
PoE+ power and Omada integration
The unit draws power through a single 10/100/1000M RJ45 port using 802.3at PoE+, consuming 15.8 W at maximum load and 4.8 W idle. Mounting kits for both pole and wall installation are included in the package. Management is handled through the Omada controller platform, which supports cloud, hardware and software deployments for centralised configuration and monitoring.
Capacity and coverage limits
The access point provides up to 1.8 Gbps aggregate throughput and covers an area of up to 3200 ft with its four external omnidirectional antennas. Sixteen SSIDs are available, eight per band, each secured by WPA3, 802.1X or captive-portal authentication. The single gigabit uplink and PoE+ power budget set the practical ceiling for high-density client traffic and backhaul bandwidth.

Questions about this item
Will the external 4 dBi and 5 dBi omnidirectional antennas need periodic replacement?
The antennas are fixed external omnidirectional units rated at 4 dBi for 2.4 GHz and 5 dBi for 5 GHz; they have no moving parts and no replacement interval is defined by the manufacturer.
What limits sustained throughput on the single 10/100/1000M Ethernet port?
The wired link rate is capped at 1 Gbps, so the PoE+ uplink becomes the bottleneck before the AX1800 wireless radios reach their maximum combined 1.8 Gbps data rate.
How much heat and power does the unit draw when running continuously?
Maximum consumption is 15.8 W via 802.3at PoE+ while idle draw falls to 4.8 W; the fanless IP65 enclosure is rated for continuous operation from -30 °C to 70 °C.
