Section 1 - Product Overview
Introduction
D-Link, an industry pioneer in wireless networking, introduces a solution for businesses seeking to deploy next generation draft
802.11n LANs. D-Link unveils its new Wireless AC1200 Concurrent Dual Band Outdoor PoE Access Point (DAP-3662), 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 Wireless AC1200 Concurrent Dual Band Outdoor PoE Access Point allows network administrators to deploy a highly
manageable and extremely robust dual-band wireless network. All new embedded four dual-band antennas design can provide
optimal wireless coverage in either 2.4 GHz (802.11g and 802.11n) or 5 GHz (802.11a, 802.11n, and 802.11ac) bands. Enclosed in a
plenum-rated metal chassis, the DAP-3662 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-3662 delivers reliable wireless performance with maximum wireless signal rates of up to 866 in 5 Ghz and 300 Mbps in
2.4 Ghz wireless band. 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-3662 supports load balance features to ensure maximum
performance.
Security
To help maintain a secure wireless network, the DAP-3662 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 backend. 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 Wireless AC1200 Concurrent Dual Band Outdoor PoE Access Point includes support for up to 16 VLANs for implementing
multiple SSIDs to further help segment users on the network. The DAP-3662 also includes a wireless client isolation mechanism,
which limits direct client-to-client communication.

Features and Benets
• Four dierent operation modes -Capable of operating in one of four dierent operation modes to meet your wireless networking needs:
Access Point(AP), WDS with AP, WDS, or Wireless Client.
• Faster wireless networking with the 802.11ac standard to provide a maximum wireless signal rate of up to 1200 Mbps*.
• Backward compatible with the 802.11a/b/g/n standardto maximum exibility when migrating your network.
• Better security with WPA -The DAP-3662 can securely connect wireless clients on the network using WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) to provide
a much higher level of security for your data and communications than its previous versions.
• Central WiFiManager management software -The real-time display of the network's topology and AP’s information makes network
conguration and management quick and simple.
• SNMP for management - The DAP-3662 is not just fast, but also supports SNMP v1 and v2c for better network management. Superior wireless
AP manager software is bundled with the DAP-3662 for network conguration and rmware upgrade. Systems administrators can also set
up the DAP-3662 easily with the Web-based conguration.
• Utilizes OFDM technology (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing).
• Supports 802.3af Power over Ethernet.
• Includes two 10/100/1000 Ethernet port.
• Operates in the 2.4~2.5 GHz or 5.15~5.85 GHz** frequency ranges.
• Web-based interface for managing and conguring.
*Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 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.
**Please note that operating frequency ranges vary depending on the regulations of individual countries and jurisdictions. The DAP-3662 isn’t supported in the 5.25~5.35 GHz
and 5.47 ~ 5.725 GHz frequency ranges in some regions.

Wireless Basics
D-Link wireless products are based on industry standards to provide high-speed wireless connectivity that is easy to use within your home, business
or public access wireless networks. D-Link wireless products provides you with access to the data you want, whenever and wherever you want it.
Enjoy the freedom that wireless networking can bring to you.
WLAN use is not only increasing in both home and oce environments, but in public areas as well, such as airports, coee shops and universities.
Innovative ways to utilize WLAN technology are allowing people to work and communicate more eciently. Increased mobility and the absence
of cabling and other types of xed infrastructure have proven to be benecial to many users.
Wireless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems support the same protocols as Ethernet adapter cards, allowing wireless users to use
the same applications as those used on a wired network.
People use WLAN technology for many dierent purposes:
Mobility - Productivity increases when people can have access to data in any location within the operating range of their WLAN. Management
decisions based on real-time information can signicantly improve the eciency of a worker.
Low implementation costs - WLANs are easy to set up, manage, change and relocate. Networks that frequently change can benet from WLAN's
ease of implementation. WLANs can operate in locations where installation of wiring may be impractical.
Installation and network expansion - By avoiding the complications of troublesome cables, a WLAN system can be fast and easy during installation,
especially since it can eliminate the need to pull cable through walls and ceilings. Wireless technology provides more versatility by extending the
network beyond the home or oce.
Inexpensive solution - Wireless network devices are as competitively priced as conventional Ethernet network devices. The DAP-3662 saves money
by providing users with multi-functionality congurable in four dierent modes.
Scalability - Congurations can be easily changed and range from Peer-to-Peer networks, suitable for a small number of users to larger Infrastructure
networks to accommodate hundreds or thousands of users, depending on the number of wireless devices deployed.

Installation Considerations
The D-Link wireless device lets you access your network using a wireless connection from virtually anywhere within the operating range of your
wireless network. Keep in mind, however, that the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must
pass through, may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your
home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:
1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the D-Link device and other network devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling
can reduce your adapter’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is
minimized.
2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (.5 meters), at a 45-degree angle appears to be
almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks over 42 feet (14 meters) thick! Position devices so that the signal will
travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.
3. Building materials make a dierence. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative eect on range. Try to position
access points, wireless routers, and computers so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways. Materials and objects
such as glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (sh tanks), mirrors, le cabinets, brick, and concrete will degrade your
wireless signal.
4. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
5. If you are using 2.4 GHz cordless phones or X-10 (wireless products such as ceiling fans, lights, and home security systems), your
wireless connection may degrade dramatically or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4 GHz phone base is as far away from your
wireless devices as possible. The base transmits a signal even if the phone in not in use.
