TP-Link Omada EAP650 Manual

* When the Locate feature is activated in the Omada Controller, the LED will flash quickly for 10 minutes to help you locate and identify the device. You can disable this feature manually to stop the device from flashing.

Rear Panel

RESET
With the device powered on, press and hold the button for about 5 seconds until the LED flashes quickly, then release the button. The device will restore its factory settings.

Ethernet Port: ETH (PoE)
Connect to a gateway/router or a switch to transmit data, or to a PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment), such as a PoE switch, for both data transmission and Power over Ethernet (PoE) through Ethernet cable.

Notes:

1. For EAPs with 10Gbps port, if you use a Cat 5E cable, the 10Gbps link of the Ethernet port is less than 55m. To achieve a longer transmission distance, use a shielded Cat 6A cable.
2. For ultra-slim products with limited space for Ethernet ports, Cat 7 and Cat 8 network cables may be incompatible due to the lack of a standard buckle design.

Power Port
Connect to a standard electrical wall outlet via a power adapter to power the EAP.

Note: Power adapter is not included in the package contents of certain models. For details, refer to the product specifications or datasheet. For power supply specifications, refer to the product label.

Hardware Installation

The EAP can be mounted to the ceiling, the wall, or in a junction box, using the accessories in the package. Choose a mounting option below.

Note: This product requires heat dissipation through the metal bracket during use. Please be careful not to touch the metal bracket in the heat dissipation.

Option 1: Ceiling Mounting (on a Tile)
Note: Make sure that the ceiling tile is larger than the EAP.

1. Remove a ceiling tile.
   
2. Place the mounting bracket in the center of the ceiling tile. Mark positions for the screw holes and the Ethernet cable hole, then drill holes at the marked positions.
   
3. Secure the mounting bracket to the ceiling tile using pan-head screws, washers, and wing nuts.
   
4. Feed the Ethernet cable through the hole and set the ceiling tile back into place.
   
5. Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the EAP. Attach the EAP to the mounting bracket, then rotate it until it locks into place.
   

Option 2: Ceiling Mounting (on a T-bar)

1. Remove the ceiling tiles next to a T-bar.
   
2. Detach the mounting screw and loosen the set screws of each T-bar mount.
   
3. Place the T-bar mounts against the T-bar and turn clockwise. Tighten the set screws.
   
4. Secure the mounting bracket to the T-bar mounts using the mounting screws.
   
5. Route the Ethernet cable through the square cable hole on the mounting bracket. Set the ceiling tiles back into place.
   
6. Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the EAP. Attach the EAP to the mounting bracket, then rotate it until it locks into place.
   

Option 3: Wall Mounting

1. If your Ethernet cable feeds through the wall, position the mounting bracket below the cable hole. Mark positions for the screw holes, then drill holes at the marked positions.
   
2. Insert the plastic wall anchors into the holes.
   
3. Secure the mounting bracket to the wall by driving the self-tapping screws into the anchors. Make sure that the shoulders of the mounting bracket are on the outside.
   
4. Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the EAP.
   
5. Attach the EAP to the mounting bracket, then rotate it until it locks into place.
   

Safety Information

• Keep the device away from water, fire, humidity or hot environments.
• Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify the device. If you need service, please contact us.
• Do not use the device where wireless devices are not allowed.
• Do not use damaged charger or USB cable to charge the device.
• Do not use any other chargers than those recommended.
• Adapter shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
• The EAP can be powered only by a power adapter or a PSE device (such as a PoE switch) which complies with Power Source Class 2 (PS2) or Limited Power Source (LPS) of IEC 62368-1.

Option 4: Junction Box Mounting
Prepare the cables and the junction box in advance. Ensure that the mounting holes align to your junction box.

1. Route the cables through the square cable hole on the mounting bracket, and secure the mounting bracket to the junction box using screws.
   
2. Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the EAP.
   
3. Attach the EAP to the mounting bracket, then rotate it until it locks into place.
   

Power Supply

Power on the EAP by a power adapter or a PSE device (such as a PoE switch).

Option 1: Via PoE Switch
Connect the EAP to a PoE switch via an Ethernet cable.

Note: For PoE power supply specifications, refer to the product label.

Option 2: Via Power Adapter
Connect the EAP to a standard electrical wall outlet via a power adapter.

Note: Power adapter is not included in the package contents of certain models. For details, refer to the product specifications or datasheet. For power supply specifications, refer to the product label.
