TP-Link 5G AX3000 Wi-Fi 6 Outdoor Router with SIM Slot, IP66, 2.5G PoE Port | Archer NX500-Outdoor
The TP-Link Archer NX500-Outdoor is a weatherproof 5G router that mounts outside, on a pole, wall or window, where the mobile signal is strongest. Insert a Nano SIM and it shares a 5G connection of up to 4.67 Gbps download (4G LTE Cat19 up to 1.6 Gbps) over AX3000 dual-band Wi-Fi 6 and a 2.5 Gbps PoE port. The housing is IP66 rated and it operates from -30 °C to 60 °C.
Color: White

Key Features
5G with 4G fallback: Supports 5G NR (up to 4.67 Gbps down / 1.25 Gbps up), 4G LTE Cat19 (up to 1.6 Gbps / 211 Mbps) and 3G. Installing the unit outdoors avoids walls and windows that weaken the mobile signal indoors.
IP66 outdoor housing: The enclosure is dustproof and protected against strong water jets (IP66), with lightning/surge and ESD protection tested per CE. A window, pole and wall mounting kit is included.

AX3000 Wi-Fi 6: Dual-band Wi-Fi 6 at 2402 Mbps (5 GHz) + 574 Mbps (2.4 GHz) covers the garden, terrace or yard directly, and a guest network is available for each band.
One cable for power and data: The 2.5 Gbps WAN/LAN port accepts 802.3at PoE and passive PoE, so a single Ethernet cable from indoors powers the router and carries the internet to your indoor router, switch or mesh. A PoE adapter and a 10-meter flat Ethernet cable are in the box.

EasyMesh and easy management: Works with EasyMesh-compatible devices to build one mesh network, and is managed through the Tether app or a web browser. PPTP, IPSec and OpenVPN server, DDNS and parental controls are supported.
Who it's for / Works with
Homes, farms, chalets and sites with weak indoor mobile coverage or no fixed line, where a SIM-based internet connection is needed and the router can be installed outside to catch a better 5G/4G signal.
Good to know
- A SIM card and data plan are not included. The SIM must be activated and without a PIN lock. Check that your operator uses one of the supported bands listed below; the actual bands may vary slightly by region.
- Mobile speeds are maximum values and depend on network coverage, plan and conditions. Wi-Fi rates are maximum physical rates.
- IP66 does not cover prolonged immersion or high-pressure jets; install following the quick installation guide. The USB-C port is for debugging only.
