They provide unparalleled bandwidth and ?exibility for administrators looking to deploy a medium to large scale Wi-Fi network with manageable dual-band wireless LAN options and utilizing the cutting-edge speed of Wireless AC Wave 2. They can be centrally managed via D-Link Unified Wireless Controllers or operate in standalone mode.
• Quality of service spells the end of interrupted video calls
  Video conference calls and VoIP are the mainstay of any busy office. At busy times though time-sensitive traffic such as those can struggle with timely delivery. The result: interrupted streaming and calls dropping off. However, with the Quality of Service feature, time-sensitive data is intelligently prioritized over other traffic such as email or web browsing, ensuring seamless calls and video.
• Slash through management time
  Versatile management significantly cuts down configuration and management time, making life easier for IT admins. Paired with a highly capable Unified Wireless Controller – such as the DWC-2000 – they can be managed remotely, with no need for onsite configuration. Roll out new configurations or keep your AP’s firmware up-to-date easily with remote batch configuration, no need to do it one by one.
• Connectivity, come rain or shine
  As an outdoor-ready AP, the DWL-8720AP is designed to meet an IP67 ingress protection rating. This means it is completely protected against harmful dust and exceptionally resistant to water. On top of that, it is highly resilient, being able to operate in unexpectedly high or low temperatures.
• Peak performance and discreet deployment with Power over Ethernet (PoE)
  The DWL-8720AP is designed for rapid deployment, bringing connectivity quickly to where you need it. It is Power over Ethernet (PoE) ready, allowing for external installations where power outlets can be tricky to come across. Furthermore, it can either be pole or wall mounted, so you can quickly deploy it and gain high-speed Wi-Fi connectivity outside, as well as in.
