Product Overview
Introduction
D-Link, an industry pioneer in wireless networking, introduces a solution for businesses seeking to deploy next generation draft 802.11ac LANs. D-Link
unveils its new DAP-2660, designed specically for business-class environments such as large or enterprise corporations to provide secure and manageable
dual band wireless LAN options for network administrators.
Versatile Access Point
The DAP-2660 Access Point allows network administrators to deploy a highly manageable and extremely robust dual band wireless network. All six
antennas are detachable and can provide optimal wireless coverage in either 2.4GHz (802.11g and 802.11n) or 5GHz (802.11ac, 802.11a, and 802.11n)
bands. Enclosed in a plenum-rated metal chassis, the DAP-2660 Access Point adheres to strict re codes for placement in air passageways. For advanced
installations, this new high-speed Access Point has integrated 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, allowing installation of this device in areas where
power outlets are not readily available.
Enhanced Performance
The DAP-2660 delivers reliable wireless performance with maximum wireless signal rates of up to 1750Mbps. This, coupled with support for Wi-Fi Multimedia™
(WMM) Quality of Service features, makes it an ideal access point for audio, video, and voice applications. Additionally, the DAP-2660 supports load balance
features to ensure maximum performance.
Security
To help maintain a secure wireless network, the DAP-2660 provides the latest in wireless security technologies by supporting both Personal and Enterprise
versions of WPA and WPA2 (802.11i) with support for RADIUS server back end. To further protect your wireless network, MAC Address Filtering, Wireless
LAN segmentation, Disable SSID Broadcast, Rogue AP Detection, and Wireless Broadcast Scheduling are also included.
The DAP-2660 includes support for up to 16 VLANs for implementing multiple SSIDs to further help segment users on the network. The DAP-2660 also
includes a wireless client isolation mechanism, which limits direct client-to-client communication.
* Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11ac (draft), 802.11g, 802.11a, and 802.11n specications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including
volume of network trac, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate. Environmental conditions will adversely aect wireless signal range.

Wireless security is a key concern for any wireless network installed. Unlike any other networking method wireless networks will broadcast it’s presence for
anyone to connect to it. Today, wireless security has advanced to a level where it is virtually impenetrable.
There are mainly two forms of wireless encryption and they are called Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA). WEP was the rst
security method developed. It is a low level encryption but better than now encryption. WPA is the newest encryption standard and with the advanced WPA2
standard wireless networks have nally reach a point where the security is strong enough to give users the peace of mind when installing wireless networks.
WEP provides two variations called Open System and Shared Key.
Open System will send a request to the access point and if the key used matches the one congured on the access point, the access point will return a success
message back to the wireless client. If the key does not match the one congured on the access point, the access point will deny the connection request from
the wireless client.

Access Point Mode (2.4GHz) - Shared Key
Shared Key will send a request to the access point and if the key used matches the one congured on the access point, the access point will send a challenge
to the client. The client will then again send a conrmation of the same key back to the access point where the access point will either return a successful or a
denial packet back to the wireless client.

Access Point Mode (2.4GHz) - WPA Enterprise
WPA-Enterprise (EAP) requires the user to install a RADIUS server on the network for authentication. Comparing WPA-PSK with WPA-EAP, WPAPSK is seen as a weaker authentication but comparing WPA-PSK to WEP, WPA-PSK is far more secure than WEP. WPA-EAP is the highest level of
wireless security a user can use for wireless today. WPA2 is an upgrade of WPA. WPA2 yet again solves some possible security issues found in WPA.
WPA2 has two variations called WPA2-Personal (PSK) and WPA2-Enterprise (EAP) which is the same as found with WPA.
