Description

Overview

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. The DAP-2680 delivers maximum combined wireless signal rates of up to 1750 Mbps and supports MU-MIMO technology that allows multiple devices to get high-bandwidth Wi-Fi signal at the same time, distributing data more efficiently. To maximise total return on investment, the DAP-2680 can be configured to optimise network performance based on any one of its multiple operation modes.

For centralise network management, administrators can use D-Link’s free Nuclias Connect software or Nuclias Connect Hub (DNH-100)5 to configure and manage multiple access points. In addition to streamlining the management process, Nuclias Connect provides network administrators with the means to verify and conduct regular maintenance checks remotely, eliminating the need to send personnel out to physically verify proper operation

Flexibility to Meet Your Needs

Through software-based monitoring and remote management of all wireless APs on your network, Nuclias Connect offers tremendous flexibility compared to traditional hardware-based management systems. Configuration can be done remotely. Management software is customisable, and enables control and analytics of a broad or fine granularity, presentable in a variety of formats. Additionally, admins can provide and manage a variety of distributed deployments, including the option to configure settings and admin accounts in a specific manner for each deployment. Nuclias Connect gives you the financial and technical flexibility to expand from a small network to a larger one (up to 1,000 APs), while retaining a robust and centralised management system.

Insights at a Glance

Gain an extensive understanding of your network through usage analytics and status reports which can be viewed at a glance. Insights derived from traffic data can create business value. Traffic can be viewed across the entire network, to the level of a single AP.

Network Security & Data Privacy

Nuclias Connect balances the need for access convenience with the need for security. All communications over the system are encrypted, with your user data never leaving your possession. Additional security measures (such as firewalls) can also be added to your network, without undue technical difficulty.
