D-Link AC1200 DAP-2660 User Manual

The DAP-2660 Wireless AC1200 Simultaneous Dual-Band PoE Access Point is designed 
to support small to medium business or enterprise environments by providing network 
administrators with secure and manageable dual-band wireless LAN options, and utilising the 
cutting-edge speed of Wireless AC.

The DAP-2660 delivers reliable, high-speed wireless performance using the latest 802.11ac 
standards with maximum wireless signal rates of up to 300 Mbps over the 2.4 GHz band, and 
867 Mbps over the 5 GHz band

. With band steering, the DAP-2660 detects whether or not 

the wireless client is dual-band capable and if it is, it will push the client to connect to the less 
congested 5 GHz 802.11ac/n network. It does this by actively blocking the client’s attempts 
to associate with the 2.4 GHz network. Band steering can ensure clients on the 5 GHz band 
can achieve their maximum performance without being bottle-necked by legacy 2.4 GHz 
802.11b/g/n clients. This way, you can make the most of Wireless AC technology and at the 
same time ensure backwards compatibility with existing legacy equipment.

This, coupled with support for the Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) Quality of Service (QoS) feature, 
makes it an ideal access point for audio, video, and voice applications. Additionally, the 
DAP-2660 supports load balancing to ensure maximum performance by limiting the maximum 
number of users per access point.

The DAP-2660 allows network administrators to deploy a highly manageable and extremely 
robust simultaneous dual-band wireless network. The DAP-2660 can provide optimal wireless 
coverage over either the 2.4 GHz (802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n) or the 5 GHz (802.11a, 
802.11n, and 802.11ac) band. The DAP-2660 can be ceiling-mounted, wall-mounted, or placed 
on a desktop to meet any wireless demands. For advanced installations, the DAP-2660 has 
integrated 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, allowing this device to be installed in 
areas where power outlets are not readily available.
