D-Lnk DAP-3520 User Manual
Introduction
The DAP-3520 802.11a/n or b/g/n switchable AP increases productivity by allowing you to work faster and more
efficiently. With the DAP-3520, bandwidth-intensive applications like graphics or multimedia will benefit significantly
because large files are now able to move across the network quickly.
The DAP-3520 is capable of operating in one of five different wireless networking modes: access point, WDS (Wireless
Distribution System) with AP, WDS, Wireless Client, or WISP (Wireless Internet Service Provider) Client Router
mode.
Use less wiring, enjoy increased flexibility, save time and money with PoE (Power over Ethernet). With PoE, the DAP-3520
shares power and data over the CAT5 cable, making the setup of your network less expensive and more convenient.
An ideal solution for quickly creating and extending a wireless local area network (WLAN) in offices or other workplaces,
trade shows, and special events, the DAP-3520 provides data transfer rates up to 300Mbps*. (The 802.11n standard is
backwards compatible with 802.11a, 802.11g, and 802.11b devices.)
* Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11g, 802.11a and Draft 802.11n specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and
environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate. Environmental
conditions will adversely affect wireless signal range.
