Wireless AC1750 Wave 2 Dual-Band PoE Access Point
DAP-2680
The DAP-2680 Wireless AC1750 Wave 2 Dual-Band 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, and utilising the cutting-edge
speed of 802.11ac Wave 2.
Blazing Wireless Wave 2 AC Performance
The DAP-2680 delivers reliable, high-speed wireless performance using the latest 802.11ac
Wave 2 standard with maximum wireless signal rates of up to 450 Mbps over the 2.4 GHz
band, and 1300 Mbps over the 5 GHz band

. The DAP-2680 is designed to support MU-MIMO
technology that allows multiple devices to get high-bandwidth Wi-Fi signal at the same time,
distributing data more eciently, giving you the fastest Wi-Fi speeds in the oce. 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-2680
to automatically prioritise network trac according to the level of interactive streaming, such
as HD movies or VoIP. The QoS feature can be adjusted through the DAP-2680 web GUI using
a drop-down menu to select customised priority rules. Additionally, the DAP-2680 supports
load balancing to ensure maximum performance by limiting the maximum number of users
per access point.
Versatile Access Point Functionality
The DAP-2680 allows network administrators to deploy a highly manageable and extremely
robust simultaneous dual-band wireless network. The DAP-2680 can provide optimal wireless
coverage over either the 2.4 GHz (802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n) or the 5 GHz (802.11a,
802.11n, and 802.11ac) bands. The DAP-2680 can be ceiling mounted, wall mounted or placed
on a desktop to meet any wireless demands. For advanced installations, the DAP-2680 has
integrated 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, allowing the device to be installed in
areas where power outlets are not readily available.
