MODEL- DWL-8200AP VENDOR- D-LINK

FEATURES- AirPremier Managed Dualband Access Point
D-Link unveils its AirPremier DWL-8200AP 802.11a/g Managed Dualband
Access Point, designed specifically for business-class environments
such as large or enterprise corporations, to provide secure and
manageable dualband wireless LAN options for network
administrators.
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 high-speed Access Point has an
integrated 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) 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.
For additional network access security, if the DWL-8200AP is
connected to a switch that supports VLAN tagging (802.1q), the VLAN
enabled DWL-8200AP can appropriately provide internal and guest
network access options. Based on VLAN tagging infrastructure, the
DWL-8200AP also features Multiple SSID support to further help
segment users on the network. 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-8200APs settings via
its web-based configuration utility or with Telnet. For advanced
network management, administrators can use D-Links AP Manager or
D-View SNMP management module to configure and manage multiple
access points from a single location. In addition to a streamli
