Features

Overview: The eero PoE 6 is a dual-band Wi-Fi 6 Power over Ethernet (PoE) Access Point that can provide up to 2000 sq. ft. of coverage area and support 100+ connected devices. The PoE 6 connects to your ISP cable, fiber, or DSL modem via an Ethernet connection, providing dual-band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless coverage for your eero mesh system.

Compatibility: The eero PoE 6 Access Point is compatible with current and previous generation eero products including Wi-Fi 5 eero devices. The PoE 6 can also be used with non-eero PoE devices.

TrueMesh Technology: The eero PoE 6 uses TrueMesh technology to ensure your traffic is always moving efficiently throughout your network. This means your devices stay connected no matter where you are at home while getting the necessary speeds to deliver the same great experience. Multiple eero devices can setup throughout your home and function together as a self-sufficient WiFi system.

WiFi 6 & 160Mhz Channel Support: The eero PoE 6 uses the power of WiFi 6 (802.11ax) to deliver faster speeds, increase your internet\’s efficiency, and reduce network congestion. WiFi 6 technology can delivering faster speeds, higher performance, and better support for simultaneous device usage throughout the home. WiFi 6 supports 802.11ax, 802.11ac, 802.11n, 802.11g, 802.11b, and 802.11a. The PoE 6 supports 160MHz channel width in the 5 GHz band.

• Dual-Band WiFi: Simultaneous dual-band WiFi supports separate WiFi networks:
  • 2.4GHz Band: Up to 574Mbps
  • 5GHz Band: Up to 2402Mbps
• MU-MIMO: MU-MIMO (Multi-User, Multiple-Input, Multiple-Output) is the latest advancement towards uninterrupted, simultaneous WiFi connections. Devices such as 4K TVs, HD streaming media players, tablets, game consoles, and many more use a lot of bandwidth, and with MU-MIMO (Multi-User, Multiple-Input, Multiple-Output) technology, the eero system sends WiFi to multiple devices at the same time and same speed. Your whole family can play, stream, and work at once, without experiencing lag or buffering.
• Beamforming: Beamforming technology helps improve the quality of voice, streaming of video and other bandwidth and latency sensitive transmissions. Beamforming will direct WiFi signals to each of your mobile devices to increase signal strength and coverage. Play video games, listen to music, check emails, shop online, stream HD movies, and more, without having to worry about dropped signals.
• OFDMA: The PoE 6 uses OFDMA technology to clear up any congestion. A single transmission sends data to multiple users in parallel and better fills the WiFi channel. This leads to more efficient use of the channel and lower wait times for users to get their data.

Power: The eero PoE 6 receives power over Ethernet from a connected PoE (802.3af) compatible router (sold separately), and consumes approximately 15W of power. A USB-C port on the PoE 6 also lets you power the access point from an optional USB-C power supply (sold separately).

Processor, Memory, & Storage: The eero PoE 6 is outfitted with a 1 GHz dual-core processor, 512 MB of RAM, and 4 GB of flash storage.

Dual Gigabit Ethernet Ports: The eero PoE 6 has two auto-detecting Ethernet ports – one 2.5 GHz PoE capable Ethernet port and one gigabit Ethernet port.

Mounting: The eero PoE 6 includes a bracket and hardware for wall- or ceiling-mounting the access point.
