Product Overview

The Cudy AP3000_P is a WiFi 6 ceiling-mount access point built to bring fast, reliable wireless coverage to offices, retail spaces, and larger homes. It combines AX3000-class WiFi 6 speeds with a 2.5Gbps Ethernet port, so your wireless network isn't bottlenecked by the wired connection back to your router or switch.

It can be powered over 802.3af/at PoE, passive PoE, or 12V DC, and this "_P" variant ships with a PoE power adapter included — no separate injector to buy. Multiple management modes (access point, router, range extender, WISP, and client modes) and mesh support with Cudy mesh routers give you flexibility for different site layouts. Supplied through Total Security Equipment.

Key Capabilities

AX3000 WiFi 6

Up to 574Mbps on 2.4GHz and 2402Mbps on 5GHz, with 802.11ax efficiency improvements for busy networks.

2.5Gbps Uplink Port

A multi-gigabit wired port ensures the wired connection keeps pace with WiFi 6 speeds.

Flexible Powering, Adapter Included

Works with 802.3af/at PoE, passive PoE, or 12V DC — and includes a PoE adapter in the box.

Ceiling or Wall Mount

Low-profile round design suits ceiling installs, with a mounting kit included.

Best For

Offices & Retail Spaces

Ceiling-mount coverage suited to open-plan offices, showrooms, and retail floors.

Multi-Gig Networks

The 2.5Gbps port suits networks already running faster-than-Gigabit wired infrastructure.

Larger Homes

A ceiling-mounted AP can cover more of a larger home than a single router.

Why Choose This Access Point

A single router often can't cover a whole office or larger home well. The Cudy AP3000_P adds dedicated, ceiling-mounted WiFi 6 coverage with a 2.5Gbps wired connection, flexible powering options, and an included PoE adapter — a practical way to extend fast, reliable WiFi to more of your space. Available from Total Security Equipment.

Buyer Decision Tips

Client Capacity Figures Vary by Source: Cudy's own documentation gives different numbers for maximum connected devices depending on the source (from around 150 recommended for reliable performance up to a higher theoretical maximum). For accurate planning, tell our team roughly how many devices will be connecting and we'll confirm whether one unit covers your setup or if you need more than one.
Check Current Stock Status: As a newer addition to our range, availability on this item can vary — confirm current stock and expected delivery with our team before you order if timing matters.
A Newer Brand to Our Range: Cudy is a newer addition alongside our established TP-Link and Ruijie networking ranges. If you'd prefer a longer-established brand with a wider Australian support history, ask our team about alternatives.
