Similar Wi-Fi 7 radios; the EAP773 adds a 10 GbE uplink but needs a PoE++ port
Our verdict
Both are Wi-Fi 7 access points with 6 spatial streams and a 140 m² manufacturer coverage rating. The real differences are on the wired side: the TP-Link EAP773 has a 10 GbE uplink but needs an 802.3bt PoE++ port supplying up to 25.94 W, while the U7 Pro runs from a common 802.3at PoE+ port at up to 21 W with a 2.5 GbE uplink. Ecosystem matters as much as hardware: the U7 Pro is managed in UniFi, the EAP773 in TP-Link Omada.
NetworkPicker editorial assessment based on the verified specifications below · reviewed
you use Omada, have 10 GbE PoE++ switch ports available, and want the higher uplink ceiling and 380-client rating.
you run or plan a UniFi network, or your PoE switch only provides 802.3at PoE+ ports.

“Advantage” appears only for directly comparable numeric fields where higher or lower is explicitly preferable. “—” means the manufacturer does not publish that value. Ecosystem, price, availability, and deployment needs still matter.
