Most GPON CPEs are ISP-provisioned gateway devices. The EAP610GP-Desktop is something different — it’s an Omada business-class access point that happens to include a GPON ONU, positioning it for managed multi-tenant and hospitality deployments rather than simple home or SOHO use. One fibre connection carries wired, wireless, voice, VoIP, data, and HD video services to a single unit per room or space, with the whole fleet managed centrally via Omada SDN controllers. The GPON port is SC-APC, conforming to ITU-984.x and G.988, Class B+.

GPON Specifications

The GPON port uses an SC-APC connector on 9/125 µm single-mode fibre, compliant with ITU-984.x, G.988, and Class B+, delivering 2.488 Gbps downstream and 1.244 Gbps upstream at Tx 1310 nm / Rx 1490 nm, with a transmit power of 0.5–5 dBm, receiver sensitivity of −27 dBm, and a maximum cable length of 20 km.

AX1800 Wi-Fi 6

Wireless runs 802.11ax dual-band with 574 Mbps on 2.4 GHz and 1201 Mbps on 5 GHz via 2×2 MU-MIMO, with UL/DL OFDMA, Beamforming, Band Steering, Airtime Fairness, and up to 16 SSIDs (8 per band). Wireless security spans WPA/WPA2/WPA3 in both Personal and Enterprise modes, with 802.1X support and RADIUS Accounting — enterprise-grade security appropriate for managed deployments. Client capacity is rated at 100+ per unit.

Ports — Wired, VoIP, and PoE Out

Interfaces comprise 1× GPON SC-APC port, 4× Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports, and 1× RJ11 FXS port for analogue phone. One of the four LAN ports supports 802.3af PoE out, useful for powering a small IP phone or a PoE camera at the endpoint without an additional injector. Maximum power consumption is 17.3 W with PoE out disabled.

PoE out limited to 802.3af (up to 15.4W). The maximum PoE out is 13W (EU) or 12W (US) based on lab testing. Not suitable for powering 802.3at (PoE+) devices.

Omada SDN Management

The EAP610GP-Desktop is fully supported by Omada Software Controller, Hardware Controller (OC200/OC300), Cloud-Based Controller, and the Omada app. This means it slots directly into an existing Omada deployment alongside Omada switches and routers — unified management, PPSK (Private Pre-Shared Keys for per-client credentials), multiple captive portal types, seamless 802.11k/v/r roaming, Omada Mesh, and zero-touch provisioning via the cloud controller.

Omada Mesh, Seamless Roaming, and Captive Portal require an Omada SDN controller (hardware or software). These features are not available in standalone mode.
