Overview
- The TP-Link CPE220 is a high-performance outdoor CPE access point engineered for long-range wireless transmission in challenging outdoor environments. With a 12dBi directional antenna, it achieves reliable connectivity beyond 13km whilst maintaining 300Mbps throughput, making it ideal for point-to-multipoint and WISP applications where traditional access points fall short.
Built-in Pharos MAXtream TDMA technology optimises performance in dense multi-point deployments, reducing latency and improving capacity. The device operates in six different modes—AP, Client, Bridge, Repeater, AP Router, and WISP—providing flexibility for various network topologies. Passive PoE simplifies deployment by eliminating separate power infrastructure, with support for cable runs up to 60 metres.
Durability is engineered in: the CPE220 features IPX5 waterproof protection, 15kV ESD protection, and 6kV lightning protection, ensuring reliable operation in harsh outdoor conditions. The adjustable transmission power (0–30dBm) allows IT professionals to fine-tune coverage and interference characteristics for each deployment.

FAQs
What is the maximum transmission range of the TP-Link CPE220?
The CPE220 supports wireless transmission of 13km or more under ideal conditions with system-level optimisations enabled. Actual range depends on antenna alignment, environmental factors, and interference levels.
Does the CPE220 require external power supply?
No. The CPE220 uses Passive Power over Ethernet (PoE), meaning power is delivered through the Ethernet cable. This eliminates the need for a separate power supply at the device location and supports cable runs up to 60 metres.
What operation modes does the CPE220 support?
The CPE220 supports six operation modes: AP (Access Point), Client, Bridge, Repeater, AP Router, and AP Client Router (WISP). This flexibility allows it to function in various network topologies and deployments.
What is Pharos MAXtream TDMA technology?
Pharos MAXtream TDMA (Time-Division-Multiple-Access) is TP-Link's proprietary technology that improves throughput, capacity, and latency performance in point-to-multipoint applications. It optimises performance when multiple clients connect to the same access point.
Is the CPE220 suitable for outdoor use in harsh weather?
Yes. The CPE220 features IPX5 waterproof certification, 15kV ESD protection, and 6kV lightning protection, making it suitable for outdoor deployment in harsh environmental conditions.
Can I adjust the transmission power on the CPE220?
Yes. The CPE220 supports adjustable transmission power from 0 to 30dBm, allowing you to fine-tune coverage and manage interference in your specific deployment.
What management options are available for the CPE220?
The CPE220 is managed through TP-Link's Pharos Control centralised management system, which provides centralized monitoring and configuration of multiple devices across your network.
What is the power consumption of the CPE220?
The maximum power consumption is 10.8 Watts. Actual consumption will be lower during normal operation depending on configuration and wireless activity.
