TP-LINK CAP300 is a sure choice if your priority is to have a secure and stable network at home or in the office. This device works with Auranet wireless controllers and allows you to create scalable solutions that increase your WiFi speed. In terms of security this access point uses effective security protocols such as WEP, WPA or WPA2-Enterprise.
The cover of the CAP controllers allows easy and quick wall or ceiling mounting, and thanks to power over Ethernet (PoE) cable or external 9V source, their placement is flexible and trouble-free. The controllers have an elegant and sophisticated design, ensuring that TP-Link CAP series access points blend discreetly into virtually any interior style.

Beamforming is a signal processing technique. In simple words, it can locate Wi-Fi devices and then amplify the signal in a specific direction from the access point to the client.
With Omni's antenna, the AP transmits the Wi-Fi signal in all directions, which means that no matter where your Wi-Fi devices are located, they all receive the signal with similar strength at the same distance.
With Beamforming technology, the access point will locate your Wi-Fi devices and then amplify the signal in that direction, increasing the Wi-Fi range, reducing unnecessary RF interference and creating stronger, faster and more reliable wireless communication.
What's an SU-MIMO?
Most routers only support SU-MIMO (Single User - Multiple Input Multiple Output), which means that their Wi-Fi can only communicate with one device at a time. With a SU-MIMO router, each Wi-Fi device must wait its turn to send or receive data from the Internet. So the more devices are connected to your home Wi-Fi network, the slower they move.
What's MU-MIMO?
MU-MIMO, short for Multiple User - Multiple Input Multiple Output, is one of the most important features of the 802.11ac Wave 2 standard. MU-MIMO technology can increase the capacity and performance of your home network, allowing Wi-Fi to communicate with multiple devices simultaneously. This reduces the time it takes for each Wi-Fi device to wait to send or receive data from the Internet, improving the quality of your home Wi-Fi network.
Here we take EAP225 V3, for example. When MU-MIMO is enabled, its 5G Wi-Fi can communicate with up to 2 devices at the same time, improving Wi-Fi up to 2x speed / capacity / performance (EAP225 V3 5G Wi-Fi has 2 streams).
Which TP-Link Wi-Fi products support MU-MIMO?
Which Wi-Fi devices can work with TP-Link MU-MIMO products?
All Wi-Fi devices can work with MU-MIMO routers. However, to improve MU-MIMO Wi-Fi, the devices should also support MU-MIMO.
With the development of Wi-Fi technology, in the coming years there will be more Wi-Fi devices that support MU-MIMO technology.
Fast roaming is a feature that allows Wi-Fi customers to quickly switch from one access point to another for a stronger Wi-Fi signal, improving the Wi-Fi experience and optimising the load on each access point by adjusting the number of customers connected to them.
802.11k, 802.11v and 802.11r are all standards designed to provide smoother roaming for wireless clients.
Note:
The 802.11k / v / r standard only works if wireless clients also support 802.11k / v / r standard.
Now we can enable/disable fast roaming via the controller and the application. If the controller accidentally turns off, the quick roaming will not work.
