• Faster wireless networking with the 802.11n standard to provide a maximum wireless signal rate of up to 300
Mbps*.
• Compatible with the 802.11b standard to provide a wireless data rate of up to 11Mbps, allowing you to migrate
your system to the 802.11n and 802.11g standards on your own schedule without sacricing connectivity.
• Compatible with the 802.11g standard to provide a wireless data rate of up to 54Mbps in the 2.4GHz frequency
range.
• Compatible with the 802.11a standard to provide a wireless data rate of up to 54Mbps in the 5GHz frequency range.
• Better security with WPA - The DAP-2553 can securely connect wireless clients on the network using WPA (Wi-Fi
Protected Access) to provide a much higher level of security for your data and communications than its previous
versions.
• AP Manager II management software - The real-time display of the network's topology and AP’s information
