D-Link DWL-8710AP/ESG

 Wireless AC1200 Dual-band Outdoor Gigabit PoE Access Point D-Link DWL-8710AP/ESG

-Wireless AC1200 Dual-band Outdoor Gigabit PoE Access Point (IP67, 2.4GHz: 300Mbps & 5GHz: 867Mbps; 5dBi internal antenna for 2.4GHz, 7dBi internal antenna for 5GHz, 802.3at PoE+, PoE injector is NOT included)

Standalone/Managed mode

-The DWL-8710AP/ESG is an outdoor Dual-Band 802.11n/ac Wi-Fi Access Point designed specifically for deployment in business and campus environments. 

-Highly manageable and capable of blazing speeds, the DWL-8710AP/ESG integrates seamlessly into existing network infrastructure and can be easily scaled to meet future demands. 

-The DWL-8710AP/ESG is equipped with two radio transceivers. 

-The first is a 2.4 GHz 2×2 IEEE 802.11n interface that supports up to 300 Mbps of network throughput while the second one is a 5 GHz 2×2 IEEE 802.11ac interface, capable of up to 867 Mbps of network throughput. 

-The DWL-8710AP/ESG also features two Gigabit Ethernet network interfaces, designed to allow the administrator to easily bridge other networking devices into the network, such as a camera or another Wi-Fi access point.

Security and Unified Management

-The DWL-8710AP/ESG supports all the latest in Wi-Fi security, including WPA, WPA2, and 802.1X. 

-In addition, the DWL-8710AP/ESG supports up to 32 Virtual Access Points (VAP), which gives the administrator the flexibility to easily assign access privileges to different classes of users.

-When used together with D-Link’s line of Unified Wireless Switches, security can be taken to a new level. 

-Rogue APs in the network may be easily detected, and the administrator will be immediately notified of any security threat. 

-When deployed in conjunction with D-Link’s line of Unified Wireless Switches, up to 1024 DWL-8710AP/ESG may be centrally managed and provisioned, enabling the administrator to scale the Wi-Fi network to cover larger areas.

Automatic Radio Frequency (RF) Management

-When a number of access points are deployed close to each other, interference may result if proper RF management is not implemented. 

-When a DWL-8710AP/ESG senses a neighbor AP nearby, RF management will make it so that the DWL-8710AP/ESG will automatically select a non-interfering channel.

-This greatly reduces RF interference and makes it possible to deploy APs more densely. -To further minimize interference, the DWL-8710AP/ESG will automatically lower its transmitting power when an adjacent AP is operating on the same channel. 

-If a nearby AP is no longer present, the DWL-8710AP/ESG will dynamically increase its transmitting power again to increase wireless coverage.

Quality of Service

-The DWL-8710AP/ESG supports Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM), which prioritizes time-sensitive traffic in the event of a network data congestion. 

-Furthermore, when a number of DWL-8710AP/ESG are in close proximity with each other, an access point will refuse new association requests once its resources are fully utilized. 

-Instead, the association request will be picked up by a neighboring unit. 

-This feature ensures that a single access point is never overloaded while others remain under utilized. 

-Furthermore, you have the option to limit the bandwidth on a per-user basis, avoiding scenarios where a particular client might use up all the available bandwidth, affecting the performance of other users on the network.

Robust Design and Easy Installation

-The DWL-8710AP/ESG is IP67-compliant and is designed to operate in harsh outdoor environments and temperatures ranging from -22 up to 140˚ F. 

-In addition, all network interfaces are protected against electrical surges, enabling the device to be placed in areas where there is a risk of being struck by lightning.

-For easy installation, it has integrated 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, allowing installation of this device in areas where power outlets are not readily available. -The AP can also be powered by a separately purchased PoE Injector.
