D-Link DAP-2230 Wireless N 2.4 GHz Access Point

D-Link DAP-2230 Access Point

The DAP-2230 Wireless N PoE Access Point is designed to support small to medium business or enterprise environments by providing network administrators with secure and manageable dual-band wireless LAN options. Multiple operating modes, network management tools, and security features give network administrators a wide range of choices for deploying the device, allowing for the addition of wireless network-enabled devices

Fast and Efficient Wireless Performance

The DAP-2230 delivers reliable wireless performance with maximum wireless signal rates of up to 300 Mbps1. This, coupled with support for the Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) Quality of Service (QoS) feature, makes it an ideal access point for audio, video and voice applications. When enabled, QoS allows the DAP-2230 to automatically prioritise network traffic according to the level of interactive streaming, such as HD movies or VoIP. The QoS feature can be adjusted through the DAP-2230’s web GUI using a drop-down menu option to select customised priority rules. Additionally, the DAP-2230 supports load balancing to ensure maximum performance by limiting the number of users per access point.

Versatile Access Point Functionality

The DAP-2230 allows network administrators to deploy a highly manageable and extremely robust wireless network with optimal wireless coverage. The DAP-2230 can be ceiling mounted, wall mounted or placed on a desktop to meet any wireless demands. For advanced installations, the DAP-2230 has integrated 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, allowing this device to be installed in areas where power outlets are not readily available.

Multiple Operation Modes

To maximise total return on investment, the DAP-2230 can be configured to optimise network performance based on any one of its multiple operation modes: access point, wireless distribution system (WDS) with access point, WDS bridge or wireless client. With WDS support, network administrators can set up multiple DAP-2230s throughout a facility and configure them to bridge with one another while also providing network access to individual clients. The DAP-2230 also features advanced features such as load balancing and redundancy, for fail-safe wireless connectivity.
