The DWL-2100AP is a powerful wireless access point for business-class enterpris environments. Designed for indoor installation, this access point provides advanced functionsincluding 108Mbps Turbo speed, security and Quality of Service (QoS) and flexible operation modes for network administrators to deploy a highly manageable and robust wireless network Up to 108Mbps Wireless Speed. (...) Complying with the 802.11g WLAN standard, the DWL-2100AP provides speeds of up to 54Mbps when used with other 802.11g wireless products, and 108Mbps when operating with other D-Link wireless devices supporting this Turbo mode.
Delivering throughput capable of handling heavy data payloads, this device is an ideal solution for bandwidth intensive applications. It is backward compatible with 802.11b wireless devices and provides seamless interoperability with the earlier standard equipment.
Advanced Network Security. The DWL-2100AP supports 64/128-bit WEP data encryption and WPA/WPA2 security functions. In addition, it provides MAC Address Filtering to control user access, and the Disable SSID Broadcast function to limit outsiders' access to the internal network.Increased Network Flexibility and Efficiency. The DWL-2100AP can be configured to operate as an access point (AP), an AP client, a bridge (Wireless Distribution System or WDS), a WDS with AP, or a repeater. It supports up to 8 SSID, allowing the administrators to logically divide the access point into several virtual access points all within a single hardware platform. Rather than having two separate networks with two access points, administrators can deploy one single AP to support more than one application, such as public Internet access and internal network control to increase flexibility and keep costs down. The DWL-2100AP supports 802.1Q VLAN Tagging, operating with multiple SSID to segment traffic to enhance performance and security. For Quality of Service (QoS), the DWL-2100AP is WMM (Wi-FiTM Multimedia) certified.
The DWL-2100AP provides WLAN STA partitioning, a function useful for deployments like at hotspots. With station-to-station partitioning enabled, security is enhanced, since wireless users cannot peek at each other, and the possibility for data thievery is reduced. Administrators can, however, disable this function, so wireless users at an office can share hard disks and information, and peripherals such as wireless printers. The DWL-2100AP also supports AP grouping, allowing several access points to balance wireless network traffic and wireless clients among the AP with the same SSID and different non-overlapping frequency channels.
Advanced Network Management. Network administrators can manage DWL-2100AP's settings via web-based configuration or Telnet. Administrators can use a Windows-based utility called AP Manager to automatically discover all wireless devices installed on the network and do bulk configuration of multiple AP to save time and effort. Strict protection is provided by limiting management access to two pre-set administrator IP addresses and by implementing SSL/SSH protocol-based security.
