details: AirPremier N Dual Band PoE Access Point
hardware type: Wireless Access Point
date added: 2010-04-20
updated: 2015-10-29
The DAP-2553 is a Dual Band (2.4GHz/ 5GHz) wireless access point. It supports four operation modes: Access Point, Wireless Distribution System (WDS) with Access Point, WDS/Bridge (No AP Broadcasting) and Wireless Client.

The DAP-2553 includes support for up to 4 VLANs for implementing multiple SSIDs to further help segment users on the network. It also includes a wireless client isolation mechanism, which limits direct client-to-client communication.

Supporting PoE, this AP expands installation options by eliminating the need for power adapters and AC outlets. Also included are advanced features such as Load Balancing, which optimizes high network traffic volume, and redundancy for fail-safe wireless connectivity.
