Unied Wireless 802.11n Access Point
DWL-8600AP
Product Highlights
Overview
The D-Link® DWL-8600AP is the next generation Unied Access Point supporting the
IEEE 802.11n standard with Plenum-rated metal chassis. Versatile and powerful, this
device can be exibly deployed as a standalone wireless Access Point or as a managed
Access Point (AP) managable from a wireless controller or unied wireless switch.
Businesses can start with an intelligent DWL-8600AP that provides many advanced
Wireless LAN functions, then migrate to a centrally managed system anytime later by
integrating the same DWL-8600AP with a D-Link unied wireless switch or controller.
Blazing Wireless Speeds
IEEE 802.11n oers up to six times increased throughput when compared with
existing 802.11a/g networks. The DWL-8600AP is also fully backwards compatible
with 802.11a/b/g clients. While operating at 802.11n it allows for a 2x2 conguration
with two Tx and Rx streams for each radio. Multiple In Multiple Out (MIMO) and wider
bandwidth channels increase physical transfer rates while using 802.11. MIMO allows
for more information to be coherently resolved by using several antennas instead of a
single antenna. By employing the DWL-8600AP today, you can prepare your business
for the future generation of wireless devices and mobile applications.
