Product Highlights

Power over Ethernet

Support for 802.3af allows the access point to be
installed in locations without access to power outlets,
reducing installation costs and maximising flexibility

Versatile Management
Self-configuring cluster mode simplifies deployment
of multiple access points, and Radio Frequency
resource management improves signal coverage

Flexible Deployment
Choice over more universatl 2.4 GHz band or the
less congested 5 GHz wireless depending on your
networks environment

DWL-3610AP
Wireless Selectable Dual-Band Unified Access Point
Features The DWL-3610AP Wireless Selectable Dual-Band Unified Access Point is designed for small
to medium businesses and enterprises, providing unparalleled bandwidth and flexibility for
Ideal for Business medium to large scale Wi-Fi networks. With selectable dual-band support, DWL-3610AP allows
• Self-configuring cluster feature you choose the most suitable band for your network.
• Up to 16 virtual access points may be created
from a single access point Centrally Managed
• Flexible QoS with Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM)
When working in conjunction with D-Link Wireless Controllers and Unified Switches, the
• IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE)
DWL-3610AP can be centrally managed. This allows for a large number of APs to be deployed
High-Performance Connectivity and managed easily and efficiently. Once the APs are discovered by the controller, the
• One Gigabit Ethernet LAN port administrator can push configurations to them as a group, instead of doing so individually.
• Airtime fairness Additionally, Radio Frequency (RF) resource management allows wireless coverage to be
managed centrally, proving the best coverage possible for wireless clients.
Trusted Wireless Security Feature
• WPA/WPA2 Personal Self-Configuring Cluster
• WPA/WPA2 Enterprise
• MAC address filtering For small businesses that need to deploy multiple APs but lack the resources for complex
network management, the DWL-3610AP self-configuring cluster allows a small number of
• Rogue AP detection
DWL-3610AP access points to be set to form a self-configuring cluster. Once the administrator
configures one access point, the same configuration can then be applied to all remaining APs,
making setting up your wireless business network a breeze.

Greater Reach and Flexibility

The internal omnidirectional antenna extends its reach, eliminating dead spots and filling hard-
to-reach places. A selectable radio mode allows the DWL-3610AP to work on either the 2.4 GHz
band or the 5 GHz band2. 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-3610AP 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-3610AP will If the worst should happen to your network you need the very best

D-Link Assist Silver is designed for ‘high availability’ businesses that
require rapid response within regular working hours. It provides a
four hour response service Monday to Friday from 8am to 5pm,
excluding holidays.

D-Link Assist Bronze - for guaranteed response on the

next business day
D-Link Assist Bronze is a highly cost-effective support solution for
less critical environments. Response is guaranteed within eight
business hours Monday to Friday from 8am to 5pm, excluding
holidays.

D-Link Assist can be purchased together with any D-Link business

product. So whether you’re buying switching, wireless, storage,
security or IP Surveillance equipment from D-Link, your peace
of mind is guaranteed. D-Link Assist also offers installation and
configuration services to get your new hardware working quickly
and correctly.
