The DWL-1000AP+ is an enterprise wireless access point featuring advanced silicon chip design from Texas Instruments, utilizing their patented Digital Signal Processing� technology providing more secure wireless connectivity and expansion for emerging enterprises.

The DWL-1000AP+ can be configured to perform in any one of five modes as wireless access point, as a point-to-point bridge with another DWL-1000AP+, as a point-to-multi-point wireless bridge, as a wireless client, or as a wireless repeater.

In access point mode, the DWL-1000AP+ offers a load-balancing feature that maximizes the wireless bandwidth available to wireless clients by sharing the load within a group of access points. Additionally, the DWL-1000AP+ provides a redundancy feature to allow it to be configured to backup a primary access point. These advanced features along with 802.1x support makes the DWL-1000AP+ an ideal solution for hotspot deployments, for creating and extending wireless local networks in offices or other workplaces where wireless security is required.

The DWL-1000AP+ is fully compatible with the IEEE 802.11b standard making it interoperable with all existing 802.11b compliant devices. When the wireless network is comprised of other D-Link products such as the AirPlus DWL-520+ Wireless PCI Adapter, DWL-650+ Wireless Cardbus Adapter, transfer rates can be a high as 22Mbps^*!

* Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11b specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate.
