The DWL-3600AP is an indoor 802.11n Wi-Fi Access Point designed
specifically for deployment in business environments. Highly manageable and
capable of high data transmission speeds, the DWL-3600AP integrates
seamlessly into existing network infrastructure and can be easily scaled up
to meet future demands.

High Performance
The DWL-3600APs 2x2 MIMO 2.4GHz radio delivers up to 300 Mbps of
network throughput. In addition, the DWL-3600AP features RadioProtect
technology, which ensures all users receive an adequate level of service
even in an environment where many users are accessing the network
through legacy 802.11b and 802.11g devices.

Self-Configuring Cluster
For small businesses that need to deploy multiple Access Points but lack the
resources to tackle the complicated task of network management, the DWL-
3600APs self-configuring cluster feature offers the ideal solution. When a
small number of DWL-3600APs is deployed on the network, they may be
configured to form a self-configuring cluster. Once the administrator
configures the master Access Point, the same configuration can then be
applied to all remaining APs. Up to 16 Access points may be used to form a
cluster.

Unified Management
When deployed in conjunction with D-Links DWC-1000 Wireless Controller,
up to 24 DWL-3600AP units can be centrally managed and provisioned, thus
enabling the administrator to scale up the Wi-Fi network to cover a very large
area.

Security
The DWL-3600AP supports the latest standards in Wi-Fi security, including
WPA, WPA2, and 802.1x. In addition, the DWL-3600AP supports up to 16
Virtual Access Points (VAP), which allows the administrator to assign
different access privileges to different groups of users. When used together
with D-Links Wireless Controller, security can be raised to a new level.
Rogue APs in the network can be easily detected, and the administrator will
be immediately notified of any security threat.

Automatic RF Management
When a number of Access Points are deployed close to each other,
interference may result if proper RF management is not implemented. When
a DWL-3600AP senses a neighbor nearby, it will automatically select a non-
interfering channel. This greatly reduces RF interference and allows the
administrator to deploy APs more densely. To further minimise interference,
when a nearby AP is operating on the same channel, the DWL 3600AP will
automatically lower its transmission power. When, for whatever reason, the
nearby AP is no longer present, the DWL-3600AP will increase its transmit
power to expand coverage.

Quality of Service
The DWL-3600AP is WMM-certified, so in the event of network congestion,
time-sensitive traffic can be given priority ahead of the rest of traffic.
Furthermore, when a number of DWL-3600APs are in close proximity with
each other, an Access Point will refuse new association requests once its
resources are fully utilised. 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.

3rd party support
The DWL-3600AP supports AirMagnet, one of the industrys most accurate
software solutions for planning, designing and troubleshooting wireless
networks for optimal performance, security and compliance. AirMagnet
calculates the ideal quantity, placement and configuration of APs for a
successful WLAN deployment. It also allows IT administrators to test and
diagnose wireless performance issues. Additionally, a RFID-based location
tracking system is supported with Aeroscout technology. Aeroscout
allows tracking of persons, objects and assets by means of RFID tags which
have built-in location capabilities. This is especially useful within healthcare,
manufacturing and security sectors.
