D-Link DWL-8200AP

The DWL-8200AP Managed Dualband Access Point allows network administrators to deploy a highly manageable and extremely robust dualband wireless network. The two detachable high-gain dualband antennas provide optimal wireless coverage in both the 802.11a and 11g bands. Enclosed in a plenum metal chassis, the DWL-8200AP adheres to strict fire codes and ensures complete safety. For advanced installations, this new high-speed Access Point has an integrated 802.3af Power over Ethernet (P) support, allowing installation of this device in areas where power outlets are not readily available. The DWL-8200AP Managed Dualband Access Point delivers concurrent wireless performance with maximum wireless signal rates of up to 54Mbps in both bands simultaneously. With dualband connectivity, two networks are created both running at full bandwidth speeds, offering a significant increase in total network capacity. At the same time, the DWL-8200AP remains fully backward compatible with the IEEE 802.11b standard in the 2.4GHz frequency. Since wireless security remains a strong concern among businesses, the DWL-8200AP provides the latest wireless security technologies by supporting both Personal and Enterprise versions of WPA and WPA2 (also known as 802.11i) with RADIUS support to ensure complete network protection. Other security features included in this Access Point are MAC Address Filtering, Wireless LAN segmentation, Disable SSID Broadcast, and support for Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) Encryption.

The DWL-8200AP also features Multiple SSID support to further help segment users on the network. Adminstrators can create different SSIDs for guests or different departments to limit access. The DWL-8200AP also includes a wireless client isolation mechanism, which limits direct client-to-client communication. To maximize total return on investment, the DWL-8200AP can be configured to optimize network performance based on any one of its multiple operation modes. The DWL-8200AP supports Access Point, Wireless Distribution System (WDS) with Access Point, and WDS to provide network access to clients and/or to serve as the wireless network backbone. With WDS support, network administrators can set up multiple DWL-8200APs throughout the facility and configure them to bridge with one another on one band and provide network access on the other. Network administrators can manage all the DWL-8200AP's settings via its web-based configuration utility or with Telnet. For advanced network management, administrators can use D-Link's AP Manager or D-View SNMP management module to configure and manage multiple access points from a single location. In addition to a streamlined management process, the AP Manager or D-View software provide network administrators with the means of verifying and conducting regular maintenance checks without wasting resources by sending personnel out to physically verify proper operation. With integrated dualband functionality, P support, extensive manageability, versatile operation modes, and solid security enhancements, the new D-Link AirPremier DWL-8200AP Managed Dualband Access Point provides SMB environments with a business-class solution for deploying a wireless network in the workplace.
