AirPremier N Dual Band Plenum-rated PoE Access Point powered by CloudCommand

The D-Link^® AirPremier^® N Dual Band Plenum-rated PoE Access Point powered by CloudCommand™ (DAP-2565) with Cloud service is the foundation of the next generation of Wi-Fi networks for business. It leverages a pioneering cloud architecture that makes deploying, configuring, securing, and managing Access Points an easy task that can be completed securely from anywhere with Internet access. This Access Point is designed for Plenum-rated deployments in support of small and medium businesses to bridge the gap between easy-to-use consumer-grade hardware that scales poorly and prohibitively expensive and complex enterprise-grade solutions that are difficult to manage.

With the AirPremier^® N Dual Band Plenum-rated PoE Access Point powered by CloudCommand™ you can enjoy a secure, business-grade Wi-Fi network that is reliable and easy to use at a fraction of the cost of a traditional enterprise solution.

Easy Setup

The AirPremier^® N Dual Band Plenum-rated PoE Access Point powered by CloudCommand™ is simple to set up (individually or in groups) using a web browser and an Internet connection. There is no need to install software from a CD or to log into product configuration pages. Unlike traditional models, once these access points connect to your local area network (LAN) they automatically retrieve their configuration settings from the Internet and are ready for use in minutes. The only task remaining is their physical installation.

Versatile Access Point

The DAP-2565 allows network administrators to deploy a highly manageable and extremely robust Dual Band business-class wireless network. The DAP-2565 can provide optimal wireless coverage in either 2.4GHz or 5GHz bands (selectable) with maximum wireless signal rates of up to 300Mbps¹.

For advanced installations, this new high-speed Access Point has integrated 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE)6 support, allowing installation of this device in areas where power outlets are not readily available.

Administer Anywhere

The DAP-2565 gives users the power to administer the entire Wi-Fi network from anywhere through the cloud portal, even if the APs are distributed across multiple locations. Save time and resources by making changes to all the APs simultaneously. Or, you can adjust their settings individually. Access is as simple as opening a web browser and logging into your online account at dlink.cloudcommand.com.

Make security changes, add and remove individual network users, view graphical reports and much more – all from your office or while on the road. You can receive alerts via email or by text message.

Powerful, Complete Coverage

Thanks to CloudCommand technology, these affordable business-grade Access Points can be easily and cost effectively deployed in groups. This allows for a higher density of access options, ensuring more complete coverage, well-balanced bandwidth loads and superior speed. What that delivers to the end user is an overall seamless and high-quality experience.

Secure Access

In addition to the traditional WPA2™ encryption standard for secure access, the DAP-2565 offers Individual Device Authentication (IDA) technology. This technology automatically identifies and secures each connected device on an individual basis. The security setup is as simple as sending a text message.

IDA allows for easier management of network access privileges and gives administrators the ability to quickly add and remove users without having to constantly change security keys (a common challenge that any wireless solutions have today). Administrators can also choose to send individual network keys to users by email or text message.

Reduce Cost of Ownership

The DAP-2565 provides everything an administrator needs to remotely manage Wi-Fi networks, reducing the hassle of maintaining costly on-site IT support. By leveraging the Internet, the DAP-2565 has made management of APs through physical controllers an obsolete concept, reducing network infrastructure costs and simplifying both deployment and management. Prepare to save money and resources by implementing a DAP-2565-based Wi-Fi network in your business.

Plenum Space Installation

Ideal for plenum space installation, the DAP-2565 complies with requirements for electrical devices mounted above ceiling tiles.

Includes two removable dual-band omnidirectional antennae.
