WDAP-C1750

1750Mbps 802.11ac Dual Band Ceiling-mount Enterprise Wireless Access Point

 
 
Ultra-high-speed, Enterprise-class Wireless LAN Solution
To meet enterprise demand, PLANET WDAP-C1750 has enhanced security and management features includingSSID-based VLAN, SNMP, internal RADIUS Server and cost-effective NMS (Network Management System). With 3T3R MIMO IEEE 802.11ac dual-band technology, the WDAP-C1750 provides extreme wireless speed up to450 + 1300Mbps (2.4GHz + 5GHz). The incredible wireless speed makes it ideal for handling multiple HD video streams, VoIPs and data sessions stably at the same time, specifically designed for SMBs, hotels, hospitals or anywhere with high-density network application.
 
 
Central Management with NMS
The WDAP-C1750 with NMS (Network Management System) permits users to monitor and manage their entire operations when in the operation mode. When entering the NMS control platform, the dashboard displays an at-a-glance view of their wireless networks including system information, managed AP, managed AP group and active client list with real-time scanning. The graphical zone plan showing the wireless coverage including heat maps, devices and location can be customized with the floor map you uploaded. With NMS, any WDAP-C1750 can be the controller of a manageable wireless network.
 
 
Secure and Manageable Wireless Network
Besides the WEP/WPA/WPA2 encryption for stations, the WDAP-C1750 is integrated with an internal RADIUS server and MAC-based ACL to authenticate and protect your wireless LAN to prevent unauthorized wireless connections. For management purposes, the WDAP-C1750 enables the system administrator to remotely monitor the wireless network status through the SNMP and the syslog server, and the IEEE 802.1Q tagged VLAN to be mapped to multiple SSIDs (16 sets of SSIDs per radio) to distinguish the wireless access in the Internal VLAN topology. The tagged VLAN also allows to be transmitted across the WDS connection and thus it is the best Wireless LAN solution to enterprises to isolate traffic guests from internal usage.
 
 
T-rail Ceiling-mount Design Perfect for Office
The WDAP-C1750 has an elegant, ultra slim, durable ceiling-mount housing, which provides more flexible deployment options for enterprises. By supporting the standard IEEE 802.3at PoE PD power scheme, the WDAP-C1750 can be powered and networked by a single UTP cable, effectively eliminating the needs of dedicated electrical outlets on the ceiling and reducing the cabling cost. Furthermore, the system administrator is able to arrange PoE schedule by using the managed PoE switch. Besides the standard ceiling-mounting kit, the WDAP-C1750 provides an extra T-rail mounting kit allowing IT engineers to easily hang bulky APs without any construction.
 
 
Multiple Operation Modes for Various Applications
In the aspect of management, the WDAP-C1750 supports AP Controller and Managed AP modes in NMS scheme. The WDAP-C1750 being an AP Controller is able to centrally manage up to 5 WDAP-C1750 units acting as managed APs. As to common wireless application, it supports WDS Bridge PtP, WDS Bridge PtMP and Repeater modes, through which it provides more flexibility for users when wireless network is established. Compared with general wireless access point, the WDAP-C1750 offers more powerful and flexible capability for wireless clients.
