Overview

The D-Link DWL-7620AP Unifed AC Wave 2 Wireless Access Point is specially designed for small to medium businesses or enterprises, providing unparalleled bandwidth and ?exibility for administrators looking to deploy a medium to large scale Wi-Fi network with manageable dual-band wireless LAN options and utilizing the cutting-edge speed of Wireless AC Wave 2. Not only can it operate in standalone mode, the DWL-7620AP can also be centrally managed by D-Link Unifed Wireless Controllers.

Greater Reach and Flexibility

The DWL-7620AP leverages the full potential of 802.11ac Wave 2 to provide unparalleled connectivity with ultra-high combined data rates. The DWL-7620AP delivers a combined speed of up to 2,134 Mbps and in addition, supports Link Aggregation, which allows two Gigabit Ethernet ports to be linked together and act as a single port to double the available bandwidth and maximize the overall throughput of the access point.

Upgrade to Tri-Band Wi-Fi

The DWL-7620AP features one 2.4 GHz and two 5 GHz wireless bands for the growing number of devices connecting to a single access point. This allows older 802.11b/g/n devices to connect to the 2.4 GHz while two 5 GHz bands can be dedicated to newer, faster wireless AC devices to enjoy seamless bandwidth-intensive applications like HD video conferencing, VoIP and file collaboration. Band steering technology efficiently load balances the clients and traffic between the three wireless bands to ensure your wireless clients have a superior user experience even in high-density environments.

MU-MIMO Efficiency

With support for MU-MIMO (Multi-User Multiple Input Multiple Output), the DWL-7620AP simultaneously communicates with multiple clients using multiple antennas. This allows the access point to utilise the spectrum more efficiently and significantly increase the network capacity. The 2 x 2 MU-MIMO takes full advantage of all streams to serve more wireless clients, dramatically improving wireless performance.

Centrally Manage your Wireless Network

When working in conjunction with D-Link Unified Switch/Controllers, the DWL-7620AP, like other UAPs in the product line, may be centrally managed. This allows a large number of APs to be deployed and managed easily and efficiently. Once the APs are discovered by the switch/controller, the administrator can push specific set of configurations onto them, rather than having to do so one by one. In addition, RF resource management and security are also managed centrally, thus allowing the administrator to pre-emptively identify potential deficiencies and weaknesses in the network.

Self-Configuring Cluster

For small businesses that need to deploy multiple APs but lack the resources to tackle the complicated task of network management, the DWL-7620AP’s self-configuring cluster feature offers the ideal solution. When a small number of DWL-7620APs are deployed on the network, they may be configured to form a self-configuring cluster. Once the administrator configures one access point, the same configuration can then be applied to all remaining APs. Up to 16 APs may be used to form a cluster, making setting up your business wireless network a breeze.

Advanced Wireless Features

802.11k Fast Roaming allows wireless clients to move seamlessly between access points. 802.1p Quality of Service (QoS) provides enhanced throughput and better performance of time-sensitive traffic like VoIP and streaming DSCP. It also supports Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM), so in the event of network congestion, time-sensitive traffic can be prioritised. Airtime Fairness ensures that equal airtime is given to each client, preventing slower devices from monopolising the wireless connection.

Automatic RF Management

When a number of access points are deployed close to each other, interference may result if proper RF management isn’t implemented. When a DWL-7620AP senses a neighbor nearby, it will automatically select a noninterfering channel. This greatly reduces RF interference and will allow the administrator to deploy APs more densely. To further minimize interference, when a nearby AP is operating on the same channel, the DWL-7620AP will automatically lower its transmission power2. When, for whatever reason, the nearby AP is no longer present, the DWL-7620AP will increase its transmission power to expand coverage.

Quality of Service

The DWL-7620AP supports 802.1p Quality of Service (QoS) for enhanced throughput and better performance of time-sensitive traffic like VoIP and streaming DSCP. The DWL-7620AP is WMM-certified, so in the event of network congestion, time-sensitive traffic can be given priority ahead of other traffic. Furthermore, when a number of DWL-7620APs 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 no single AP is overburdened while others nearby sit idle.
