The DWL-6610APE Wireless AC1200 Dual-Band Unied Access Point is designed for small
to medium businesses and enterprises, providing unparalleled bandwidth and exibility for
medium to large scale Wi-Fi networks. Featuring the latest 802.11ac technology on its 5 GHz
band, the DWL-6610APE allows you to deploy more devices and provide greater throughput
for your wireless clients.
Greater Reach and Flexibility
The DWL-6610APE provides unparalleled connectivity by using a 2 x 2 antenna implementation
with 4 detachable external omnidirectional antennas, allowing high combined data rates of
1167 Mbps2 (867 Mbps for 802.11ac, and 300 Mbps for 802.11n) over the air. With dual-band
technology, the DWL-6610APE provides high-performance connections over two bands, so
wireless clients can stream media faster and further than before using existing devices.
Centrally Managed
When working in conjunction with D-Link Unied Controllers, the DWL-6610APE can be
centrally managed. This allows for a large number of APs to be deployed and managed
easily and eciently. Once the APs are discovered by the controller, the administrator can
push conguration to them as a group, instead of doing so individually. Additionally, Radio
Frequency (RF) resource management allows wireless coverage to be managed centrally,
proving the best coverage possible for wireless clients.
Self-Conguring Cluster
For small businesses that need to deploy multiple APs but lack the resources for complex
network management, the DWL-6610APE self-conguring cluster allows a small number of
DWL-6610APE access points to be set to form a self-conguring cluster. Once the administrator
congures one access point, the same conguration can then be applied to all remaining APs,
making setting up your wireless business network a breeze.

Performance Upgrade
The DWL-6610APE features an upgraded CPU, providing increased
performance over its predecessor. The 4 external omnidirectional antennas
extend the range of the wireless signal, eliminating dead spots and lling
hard-to-reach places. Band steering technology enables the DWL-6610APE to
balance the load between its two radios rather than forcing all users onto the
2.4 GHz band, allowing for smooth streaming of video, seamless browsing,
and fast downloads for mobile devices. Airtime fairness ensures that equal
airtime is given to each client, providing increased performance even if slower
devices are connected.
Automatic RF Management
When access points are deployed in close proximity to each other, there may
be interference between channels if RF management is not implemented.
When a DWL-6610APE senses a neighbour nearby, it will automatically
select a non-interfering channel. This greatly reduces RF interference and
will allow the administrator to deploy APs more densely. To further minimise
interference, when a nearby AP is on the same channel, the DWL-6610APE
will automatically lower its transmission power1. When, for whatever reason,
the nearby AP is no longer present, the DWL-6610APE will increase its
transmission power to expand coverage.
Quality of Service
The DWL-6610APE supports 802.1p Quality of Service (QoS) for enhanced
throughput and better performance of time-sensitive trac like VoIP and
video streaming. The DWL-6610APE supports Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM), so in
the event of network congestion, time-sensitive trac can be given priority
ahead of other trac. Furthermore, when a number of DWL-6610APE units are
in close proximity to each other, an access point will refuse new association
requests once its resources are fully utilised, allowing the association request
to be picked up by a neighbouring unit, distributing the load over multiple
APs.
