Wireless AC1750 Dual-Band Unied Access Point
DWL-8610AP
The DWL-8610AP Wireless AC1750 Dual-Band Unied Access Point combines the cutting-
edge wireless speeds of 802.11ac with the unparallelled exibility and scalability of D-Link’s
Unied Wireless Solution. The DWL-8610AP is designed to support small to medium
business or enterprise environments by providing network administrators with secure and
manageable dual-band wireless network options.
Super-fast Wireless AC Performance
The DWL-8610AP delivers reliable, high-speed wireless performance using the latest 802.11ac
standards with maximum wireless signal rates of up to 450 Mbps over the 2.4 GHz band, and
1300 Mbps over the 5 GHz band
1
. With band steering, the DWL-8610AP detects whether or
not the wireless client is dual-band capable and if it is, it will push the client to connect to
the less congested 5 GHz 802.11ac/n network. It does this by actively blocking the client’s
attempts to associate with the 2.4 GHz network. Band steering can ensure clients on the 5
GHz band can achieve their maximum performance without being bottle-necked by legacy
2.4 GHz 802.11b/g/n clients. This way, you can make the most of Wireless AC technology and
at the same time ensure backwards compatibility with existing legacy equipment.
AC SmartBeam™ technology enables the DWL-8610AP to have even greater reach than ever
before. By focusing the wireless signal at connected devices, it guarantees continuous fast
wireless speeds, anywhere in the oce, even under heavy network utilisation or in area that
had bad wireless signal
Self-Conguring Cluster
For small businesses that need to deploy multiple APs but lack the resources to tackle the
complicated task of network management, the DWL-8610AP’s self-conguring cluster
feature oers the ideal solution. When a small number of DWL-8610APs are deployed on the
network, they may be congured to form a self-conguring cluster. Once the administrator
congures one access point, the same conguration can then be applied to all remaining
APs. Up to 16 APs may be used to form a cluster, making setting up your business wireless
network a breeze.
