Key Features and Benefits:
- Higher Efficiency: Features like AI-Driven Technology, Zero-Touch Provisioning, and Auto Channel Selection optimize network performance.
- Higher Security: Offers robust security with features like a powerful firewall, VPN, access control, and advanced WPA3 encryption.
- Higher Reliability: Guarantees 99.99% SLA availability, 24/7 automated fault detection, and geographically isolated backup servers.
Centralized Cloud Management
Manage your entire network from different sites through a single interface, accessible anytime and anywhere. This includes features like centralized cloud management, zero-touch provisioning for efficient deployment, and AI-driven technology for network analysis, warning, and optimization.
Zero-Touch Provisioning
Remotely deploy and configure multi-site networks without needing on-site engineers. The Omada Cloud facilitates efficient deployment with reduced costs. This process involves plugging in devices, enrolling them via the Omada Cloud Dashboard, devices automatically obtaining configuration from the cloud, and enjoying 100% remote provisioning and cloud management.
AI-Driven Technology
Intelligent Network Analysis, Warning, and Optimization: Analyzes potential network problems, provides optimization suggestions, locates faults, and generates solutions to reduce network risk. (Note: This feature was under development and scheduled for release in 2020).
Auto Channel Selection and Power Adjustment: Automatically adjusts channel settings and transmission power levels of neighboring APs to reduce Wi-Fi interference and enhance wireless performance.
Multi-User Privilege Assignment: Allows for flexible network operation and maintenance by enabling multi-person management, multi-level permissions, and the addition of admins as needed.
Easy and Intelligent Network Monitoring
A user-friendly dashboard provides real-time network status, usage, and traffic distribution. It offers network condition logs, abnormal event warnings, notifications, and key data tracking for business insights. Network topology views help administrators quickly identify and troubleshoot connections.
Comprehensive Protection for the Whole Network
Better Protection for Users' Privacy: TP-Link Omada separates network management data from user data, ensuring no user traffic passes through the cloud, thus enhancing user privacy. Management data flows through the cloud, while user traffic is direct.
Abundant Security Functions: Includes High-Security VPN, Powerful Firewall, IP/MAC/URL Filtering, Access Control, Advanced WPA3 Encryption, and Captive Portal.
Multiple Factors Guarantee Higher Reliability
Achieve higher cloud service reliability with 99.99% SLA availability, 24/7 automated fault detection, geographically isolated backup servers, and reliable product quality. The network remains functional even if management traffic is interrupted.
Reliable Connections Even with High-Density Clients
Omada Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 5 APs are equipped with enterprise chipsets, dedicated antennas, advanced RF functions, auto channel selection, and power adjustment. These features provide high concurrency capacities for excellent performance in high-density environments.
