Omada adds gateways that record camera footage as well as run the network

Omada, TP-Link's business networking brand, has introduced the Fusion Pro Series Gateways, which combine a network gateway, controller and video management system in one device. The aim is to let small businesses, retailers, hospitality operators and home users manage their network, cameras and recording from a single interface.

The series has two models. The Fusion Pro 2.5G is a 3-in-1 gateway, controller and video manager. The Fusion Pro 2.5G PoE adds a built-in eight-port, 180W PoE+ switch, making it a 4-in-1 that can power cameras and access points directly and avoids buying a separate NVR and PoE switch.

Both models include a built-in controller with licence-free remote cloud access, full-feature VPNs, full mesh SD-WAN, automatic quality of service, content filtering and deep packet inspection. A quad-core processor, multi-WAN load balancing with automatic failover and high-throughput intrusion detection and prevention handle the network side. Each has an NVMe SSD tray, so an optional SSD can be fitted for gateway-based recording, and both work with third-party IP cameras over ONVIF and RTSP.

Ben Allcock, VP of B2B at TP-Link UK&I, said: "The new Omada Fusion Pro Series Gateways delivers a step change by enabling both networking and surveillance systems to be managed from a single unified location".

Omada recommends the PoE model for small deployments. Sites that need more cameras, longer retention or more PoE capacity can pair the plain 2.5G model with an Omada switch, Vigi cameras and Omada access points, or start with gateway-based recording and add a dedicated NVR later. Both models go on sale in the UK from 14 December 2026.
