3PCS Gigabit Wireless Bridge Kit 5.8G PtP/PtMP - Long Range Bridge

Our review of the 3PCS Gigabit Wireless Bridge Kit finds it best suited for installers and property owners who need a straightforward way to extend a network across open distance without running cable. The kit's single biggest advantage is its simplicity: one-button dialing pairing and included 24V PoE adapters make the set ready to deploy for point-to-2-point links and multi-receiver setups. For surveillance, internet sharing to outbuildings, or connecting remote facilities, this kit delivers predictable throughput and long-range reach with minimal network know-how.

Key Features

• Plug and Play: One-key dialing pairing assigns one unit as the transmitter and two as receivers, reducing setup time and configuration complexity.
• Outdoor Ready: IP65-rated enclosures and mounting hardware let the units be installed on walls, pillars, or poles for reliable outdoor operation.
• 5.8 GHz Band: Operating on 5.8 GHz improves transmission stability for video and voice compared with crowded lower bands.
• Gigabit and Fast Ethernet Ports: The kit includes both 100 Mbps and 1000 Mbps RJ45 ports to support a range of client devices and backhaul needs.
• Long Range Coverage: A 16 dBi directional antenna and optimized radio deliver up to about 3 km (1.9 miles) of outdoor link distance for line-of-sight installations.
• Complete Kit: Package includes three CPE units, three PoE adapters, cables, metal ties and a manual to simplify a one-trip install.

Who It's For

This bridge kit is ideal for small business owners, farm or ranch operators, and homeowners who need to link multiple buildings or remote cameras and want a low-complexity, cost-effective solution. Installers who configure multiple client locations will appreciate the prepackaged components and one-key pairing to speed deployments.

Those who require multi-gigabit backbone links, non-line-of-sight indoor mesh coverage, or must use 48V PoE should look elsewhere; the kit specifically supports 24V PoE only and is intended for outdoor line-of-sight point-to-point or point-to-multipoint uses.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Easy, fast setup with one-key pairing that does not demand deep networking knowledge.
• Good real-world throughput for video and voice, with customers reporting strong speeds and coverage across properties.
• Durable outdoor design and included PoE adapters make it a practical outdoor bridge solution.
• Includes everything needed for typical installs: cables, ties, and mounting options.

Cons

• Supports only 24V PoE; do not use 48V PoE or 48V switches, which limits some enterprise power options.
• Performance depends on clear line of sight; dense obstacles or severe interference will reduce range.

Our Verdict

The 3PCS Gigabit Wireless Bridge Kit is a solid value for anyone who needs to extend a network across outdoor line-of-sight distances without complex configuration. It pairs fast local throughput, simple one-key setup, and a complete accessory pack to make installs straightforward. Buyers who need enterprise 48V PoE or non-line-of-sight indoor mesh should consider other options, but for long-range CCTV and internet sharing this kit performs well for the price.

Frequently Asked Questions
