Increased reliability
TP-Link’s Omada EAP660 HD delivers a powerful business network with higher efficiency, greater security, and increased reliability. The easy to use Omada app provides users with the convenience needed for today, as well as real-time updates on network usage and traffic distribution. Meanwhile, 100% centralised cloud management gives operators control of a whole network from numerous sites. Controlling anywhere at any time from a single interface is completely hassle free.
