Section 1 - Product Overview
Introduction
Features
IEEE803.3af PSE feature to power on PD device
The DAP-1316-ES Wireless n300 POE Bridge is an 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi PSE Bridge designed with AP/client mode and IEEE803.3af
PSE feature to power on PD device.
High-speed Wireless Performance With Wireless N Technology
Thanks to the latest Wireless N technology, the DAP-1316-ES provides a wireless connection at up to 300 Mbps* with other
802.11n wireless devices. This capability allows users to participate in real-time activities online, such as video streaming, online
gaming, and real-time audio with smooth performance.
Simple Setup
You can quickly and easily connect the DAP-1316-ES to an uplink router by pressingWPS button and manage the administrative
settings.
Compatibility
The DAP-1316-ES is still fully compatible with the IEEE 802.11g/b standards, so it can still connect with your older 802.11g/b
devices.
Latest Wireless Network Security and Encryption
Supports wireless security features to provide secure connection between DAP-1316-ES and uplink router. Support for WPA/
WPA2 standards ensure that you’ll be able to use the best possible encryption methods with your compatible wireless devices.
* Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11n and 802.11g specications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors,
including volume of network trac, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate. Environmental conditions will adversely
aect wireless signal range.

Wireless Installation Factors
The Wireless N300 POE Bridge lets you connect to uplink router wirelessly and provide IEEE802.3af feature to power ron PD
device. Keep in mind, however, that the number, thickness, and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless
signals must pass through, may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF
(radio frequency) noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:
1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the PoE bridge and uplink router to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce
your range by up to 98 feet (30 meters). Position your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized.
2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. At a 45-degree angle, a wall that is 0.5 meters thick (1.5 feet) appears to be
almost 1 meter (3 feet) thick. At a 2-degree angle it can appear over 14 meters (45 feet) thick! Position devices so that the signal
will travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.
3. Building materials make a dierence. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative eect on range. Try to position
access points, wireless routers, and computers so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways. Materials and objects
such as glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (sh tanks), mirrors, le cabinets, brick, and concrete can degrade your
wireless signal.
4. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
5. If you are using 2.4 GHz cordless phones or X-10 (wireless products such as ceiling fans, lights, and home security systems), your
wireless connection may degrade dramatically or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4 GHz phone base is as far away from your
wireless devices as possible. The base transmits a signal even if the phone in not in use.
