Section 1 - Product Overview
Introduction
The DKT-883 Covr Wi-Fi System is a revolutionary wireless networking solution comprised of the DIR-883 AC2600 Wi-Fi Router and DAP-1655
AC1300 Wi-Fi Range Extender. Covr builds a small-scale mesh-like wireless network which blankets your home or small office in high-speed wireless
coverage, without dead spots or service interruptions. D-Link created the Covr Wi-Fi System to overcome the limitations of wireless technology
and to satisfy the demand for Wi-Fi everywhere. Until now, most home networks have been dominated by a single device providing all Internet
connectivity and wireless coverage. For larger homes and offices this is inadequate, leading to dead spots, poor reception, and slow speeds. The
Covr Wi-Fi System eliminates these problems with multiple devices to share Internet and provide seamless wireless using technology never seen
before in the consumer realm.
The Covr Wi-Fi System continually monitors your device's wireless signal strength to each Covr device, automatically connecting to the strongest
signal available. Thanks to revolutionary technology, the Covr Wi-Fi System handles the transfer seamlessly, allowing you to walk from room to room
without dropping phone calls or freezing streaming video. Plus, each Covr device is equipped with dual-band radios and intelligent band steering,
automatically placing your device on the optimal wireless band depending on network traffic conditions. With Covr all this happens automatically,
without bothering you to change networks or enter passwords.
The Covr DIR-883 AC2600 Wi-Fi Router shares your Internet connection over a blazing-fast Gigabit Wireless AC connection of up to 2600 Mbps (Up
to 1766 Mbps 5 GHz Wireless AC and up to 800 Mbps 2.4 GHz Wireless N)

to each DAP-1655 AC1300 Wi-Fi Range Extender at up to1300 Mbps (Up
to 866 Mbps 5 GHz Wireless AC and up to 400 Mbps 2.4 GHz Wireless N)

using advanced AC beamforming technology to significantly outperform
802.11n and other 802.11ac devices. The DIR-883 is equipped with one Gigabit WAN/Internet port and four Gigabit LAN ports to provide speeds
up to 10 times faster than standard 10/100 ports and the DAP-1655 has two Gigabit LAN ports allowing you to connect Ethernet devices or link to
the DIR-883 as an access point.
The Covr Wi-Fi System is stylish and designed to fit a modern household. The DIR-883 features a slim and sleek design, with a minimal number of
indicator LEDs to not draw attention. The DAP-1655 is small and unobtrusive, using internal antennas allowing it hide in plain sight while providing
high-speed wireless connectivity. They connect to each other using wireless or wired Ethernet to provide approximately 280 square meters (3,000
square feet) of wireless coverage. The Covr Wi-Fi System creates the best networking experience to date. The DIR-883 prepares your home to become
a Connected Home by bringing Wi-Fi to places your old signal can't reach. A stronger Wi-Fi signal means you can install more wireless surveillance
cameras, baby monitors, sensors, and alarms in the places where you need them.
The DIR-883's Smart Connect Technology makes connecting to wireless networks easy by eliminating the confusion of multiple networks. Ever since
the introduction of 5 GHz multi-band wireless technology, users have had to guess whether the 5 GHz or 2.4 GHz band network would provide
them with better range and speed. Smart Connect simplifies this by only presenting a single wireless network for you to connect to. Behind the
scenes, when a connection is initiated, the DIR-883's advanced algorithms determine the best band for your device to connect to, automatically
distributing devices to the optimal band, thereby ensuring a faster, more reliable, and hassle-free experience for all of your users and devices.
