eero PoE Gateway
eero PoE Gateway is a gateway without built-in Wi-Fi with a 10 Gbps internet port that supports eero mesh.
- 10G WAN
- SQM
At a glance
Derived from the published specs below, not from hands-on testing.
Good fit for
- A 10 Gbps internet port for multi-gig plans
- Growing into mesh later with eero units
- Keeping latency low on a busy connection (Smart Queue Management)
- Wired multi-gig devices (9 LAN ports faster than 1 Gbps)
Keep in mind
- Routing throughput isn't published, so the maker doesn't confirm it routes 10 Gbps
- Needs the manufacturer's app and account to manage
- Paid add-ons: eero Plus (optional, $9.99/month or $99.99/year): advanced security, ad blocking, parental controls and more
- Has no Wi-Fi; pair it with access points

"Not published" means the manufacturer doesn't document it; it doesn't mean the feature is missing. "Not checked yet" means we haven't looked for that figure yet. Coverage, device counts and throughput are the manufacturer's claims under the manufacturer's test conditions; RouterHaus hasn't measured them.
