TP-Link Omada Hardware Controller for 500 Devices and 15,000 Clients

TP-Link Omada Hardware Controller (OC300) - 5 Years Local Warranty

The OC300 is the mid-range Omada hardware controller: a 1U rack appliance with two Gigabit Ethernet ports and a USB 3.0 port, managing up to 500 Omada access points, switches and routers with up to 15,000 clients. It is the controller for a multi-floor office, a school or a hotel — well past what the OC200 covers, without the multi-tenant scale of the OC400.

Five Hundred Devices and Fifteen Thousand Clients

The OC300 manages up to 500 Omada access points, JetStream switches and SafeStream routers with up to 15,000 clients. In practice that covers a large single campus or several branch sites under one roof of management — five times the access point capacity of the OC200 and fifteen times its client count. Multi-site management keeps each location's configuration and reporting separate inside the one appliance.

One Appliance Instead of a Server and a Licence

Running the Omada Software Controller means providing a server, keeping its operating system patched and accepting that the network's management plane depends on that machine. The OC300 replaces all of it with a dedicated 1U appliance that boots into the controller and nothing else, with no per-device licence fee for the devices it manages and no cloud subscription required. For a Singapore business without a virtualisation estate that is usually the cheaper and simpler answer.

Layer 3 and Multi-Site Management

L3 management means the controller can adopt and manage Omada devices across routed subnets rather than only on its own broadcast domain — essential on a segmented network where access points sit in their own VLAN. Combined with multi-site management, one OC300 can hold several sites, each with its own device set, SSIDs, portal configuration and reporting, administered from a single login.

Batch Configuration and Batch Firmware Upgrades

Management features cover automatic device discovery, batch configuration, batch firmware upgrading, intelligent network monitoring, abnormal event warnings, unified configuration, reboot schedules and captive portal configuration. Batch operations are the reason a controller pays for itself: a firmware update or an SSID change applies across every adopted device in one action rather than being repeated per unit.

Cloud Access and the Omada App

The OC300 supports Omada cloud access and the Omada app, so an administrator can check a site, adopt a newly delivered access point or push a configuration change from a phone without a VPN back to the office. Because the controller is on premises, the configuration and client data stay on site while remote access runs through Omada's cloud layer.

Rack-Mountable, Fifty-Degree Rated

The unit measures 294 × 180 × 44 mm and ships with a rackmount kit, an Ethernet cable and a power cord. It runs on 100–240 V at 0.6 A and is rated to a 50 °C operating temperature — ten degrees above most of the Omada range, which matters in an unconditioned Singapore comms room where a rack can sit well above ambient.

Ideal For

Singapore businesses, schools, hotels and managed-service providers building on Omada, and IT teams that want a controller they can adopt, monitor and update centrally rather than box by box. Supplied by SourceIT with local Singapore warranty, GST invoice and project pricing on request.
