Section 1 - Product Overview
Introduction
The D-Link DAP-2230 Wireless N PoE Access Point is an 802.11n compliant device that delivers real world performance of up to
300 Mbps
*
while still maintaining backwards compatibility with slower 802.11g and 802.11b devices. The DAP-2230 increases
productivity by allowing you to work faster and more eciently. With the DAP-2230, bandwidth-intensive applications like
graphics or multimedia will benet signicantly because large les are now able to move across the network more quickly.
Create a secure wireless network to share photos, les, music, video, printers, and network storage outside of your normal
internal networking environment. Built to withstand harsh environments, the DAP-2230 also excels in connecting separate
networks that cannot be joined physically using a traditional medium. The built-in omni-directional 3 dBi antenna is designed
to deliver high performance, ensuring that wireless coverage will cover even hard to reach locations. The DAP-2230 is an ideal
solution for quickly creating and extending a wireless local area network (WLAN) in oces or other workplaces, hotels, resorts,
trade shows, and special events.
The DAP-2230 features four dierent operation modes: Access Point, Wireless Distribution System (WDS), WDS with AP, and
Wireless Client mode, allowing it to adapt to many situations. As a standard wireless Access Point (AP) the DAP-2230 can connect
to a wide range of devices that are 802.11 n/g/b compliant. In WDS mode it can expand current wireless coverage without the
need for a wired backbone link. As a wireless client it can connect to an existing AP, and expand the network physically with
the built-in 10/100 Ethernet port.
The DAP-2230 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 unauthorized access to the internal network.
Network administrators have multiple options for managing the DAP-2230, including Web (HTTP) or Secured Web (HTTPS).
For advanced network management, administrators can use SNMP v1, v2c, v3 to congure and manage access points.
*Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11n and 802.11g specications. Actual data throughput may vary. Network conditions
and environmental factors, including volume of network trac, building materials and construction, and network overhead can lower actual data
throughout rate.
