with Plenum-rated Chassis

For Business-Class

their access area, the client will be automatically brought

back to their permitted network access level.

Overview

The D-Link DAP-2590 AirPremier N Dual Band PoE Access

Point provides businesses with a solution for deploying next

generation draft 802.11n local area networks (LANs). Designed

speciically for business-class environments, such as large or

enterprise corporations, this access point provides secure

and manageable dual band wireless LAN options for network

administrators.

Environments

+ Selectable Dual Band Connectivity for

Increased Network Capacity

+ Rugged Metal Chassis

+ Ideal for Indoor Deployments*

+ Plenum-rated Housing

+ Trafic Control

+ Internal RADIUS Server

Multiple Operation Modes

The DAP-2590 can be conigured to optimize network

performance based on any one of its multiple operation

modes: Access Point, Wireless Distribution System (WDS)

with Access Point, WDS/Bridge (No AP Broadcasting) and

Wireless Client. With WDS support, network administrators

can set up multiple DAP-2590s throughout a facility and

conigure them to bridge with one another while also

providing network access to individual clients. Also included

are advanced features such as Load Balancing, which

optimizes high network trafic volume, and redundancy

for fail-safe wireless connectivity. Spanning Tree Protocol

support allows greater eficiency and avoids broadcast

storms when used in WDS mode.

Versatile Access Point

The DAP-2590 AirPremier N Dual Band PoE Access

Point allows network administrators to arrange a highly

manageable and extremely robust dual band wireless

network. All three detachable dual band antennas supply

optimal wireless coverage in either 2.4GHz (802.11g

and draft 2.0 802.11n) or 5GHz (802.11a and draft 2.0

802.11n) frequency bands. Enclosed in a plenum-rated

metal chassis, the AirPremier N Dual Band PoE Access

Point adheres to strict ire codes for placement in air

passageways. For advanced installations, this 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.

Network Management

Network administrators have multiple options for managing

the AirPremier N Dual Band PoE Access Point including

Web (HTTP), Secure Sockets Later (SSL, which provides

for a secure connection to the Internet), Secure Shell

(SSH, which provides for a secure channel between local

and remote computers), and Telnet (bi-directional, eight-

bit byte oriented communications facility). For advanced

network management, administrators can use the D-Link

AP Manager II or D-View SNMPv3 management module to

conigure and manage multiple access points from a single

location. In addition to a streamlined management process,

the AP Manager II or D-View software provides network

administrators with the means of verifying and conducting

regular maintenance checks without wasting resources by

sending personnel out to physically verify proper operation.

High Performance Connectivity

+ IEEE Draft 802.11n Wireless

+ Up to 300Mbps 1

Enhanced Performance

The DAP-2590 delivers reliable wireless performance with

maximum wireless signal rates of up to 300Mbps in either

the 2.4GHz or 5GHz wireless band. Support for Trafic

Control and the Wi-Fi Multimedia™ (WMM) Quality of

Service feature, makes it an ideal access point for audio,

video, and voice applications. Additionally, this access

point supports load balance features to ensure maximum

performance.

Trusted Security Features

+ WPA2™ - Enterprise/Personal

+ WPA™ - Enterprise/Personal

+ WPA2 - PSK/AES over WDS

+ 64/128-bit WEP Encryption

+ MAC Address Filtering

+ Network Access Protection (NAP)

Security

To help maintain a secure wireless network, the AirPremier

N Dual Band PoE Access Point 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 and a built-in internal RADIUS

server allowing users to create their accounts inside. This

access point also includes MAC Address Filtering, Wireless

LAN segmentation, Disable SSID Broadcast, Rogue AP

Detection, and Wireless Broadcast Scheduling to further

protect your wireless network.

Also available is an AP array, allowing the management

of a set of network devices as a single group for easy

coniguration and deployment. In addition, the DAP-2590

has a Wireless Scheduler feature for power saving.

Convenient Installation

+ Supports 802.3af Power over Ethernet

+ Wall Mounting Brackets Included

With the selectable dual band functionality, PoE support,

plenum-rated chassis, extensive manageability, versatile

operation modes, and solid security enhancements,

the new D-Link DAP-2590 AirPremier N Dual Band

PoE Access Point provides small to medium business

(SMB) environments with a business-class solution for

deploying a wireless network in the workplace.

Easy Management

+ Web Browser (HTTP) & HTTPS

+ Telnet

+ SNMP v1, v2c, and v3

+ AP Manager II

+ SSH

+ D-View 5.1 and 6.0

+ AP Array

The AirPremier N Dual Band PoE Access Point includes

support for up to 8 VLANs for implementing multiple

service set identiiers (SSIDs) to further help segment

users on the network. The DAP-2590 also includes a

wireless client isolation mechanism to limit direct client-

to-client communication.

Additionally, the DAP-2590 supports Network Access

Protection (NAP), which is a feature of Microsoft®

Windows Server 2008. NAP allows network administrators

to deine multiple levels of network access based on the

needs of individual clients. If a client is identiied outside of

D-Link Green

+ Wireless Scheduler

The DAP-2590 is designed for indoor deployment, setting up this device

in an outdoor environment may be in violation of local regulations.
