Product Overview

Introduction

D-Link, an industry pioneer in wireless networking, introduces a solution for businesses seeking to deploy next generation draft 802.11ac LANs. D-Link
unveils its new DAP-2695, designed specifically for business-class environments such as large or enterprise corporations to provide secure and manageable
dual band wireless LAN options for network administrators.
Versatile Access Point
The DAP-2695 Access Point allows network administrators to deploy a highly manageable and extremely robust dual band wireless network. All six
antennas are detachable and can provide optimal wireless coverage in either 2.4GHz (802.11g and 802.11n) or 5GHz (802.11ac, 802.11a, and 802.11n)
bands. Enclosed in a plenum-rated metal chassis, the DAP-2695 Access Point adheres to strict fire codes for placement in air passageways. For advanced
installations, this new high-speed Access Point has integrated 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, allowing installation of this device in areas where
power outlets are not readily available.
Enhanced Performance
The DAP-2695 delivers reliable wireless performance with maximum wireless signal rates of up to 1750Mbps. This, coupled with support for Wi-Fi Multimedia™
(WMM) Quality of Service features, makes it an ideal access point for audio, video, and voice applications. Additionally, the DAP-2695 supports load balance
features to ensure maximum performance.
Security
To help maintain a secure wireless network, the DAP-2695 provides the latest in wireless security technologies by supporting both Personal and Enterprise
versions of WPA and WPA2 (802.11i) with support for RADIUS server back end. To further protect your wireless network, MAC Address Filtering, Wireless
LAN segmentation, Disable SSID Broadcast, Rogue AP Detection, and Wireless Broadcast Scheduling are also included.
The DAP-2695 includes support for up to 16 VLANs for implementing multiple SSIDs to further help segment users on the network. The DAP-2695 also
includes a wireless client isolation mechanism, which limits direct client-to-client communication.
* Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11ac (draft), 802.11g, 802.11a, and 802.11n specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including
volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate. Environmental conditions will adversely affect wireless signal range.
