D-Link DWL-7130AP - xStack - Wireless Access Point Installation guide

Wireless Access Points for DWS-3200 Series Switches
Designed for the xStack 3200 Series of wireless switches,
the DWL-2130AP, DWL-2230AP, DWL-7130AP, and DWL-7230AP
access points (APs) offer a flexible solution for integration
in various network applications. With options for supporting
802.11a/b/g, 802.11b/g only, and Power over Ethernet
(PoE), these APs are designed to fit virtually any network
topology. When used in conjunction with the xStack 3200
Series wireless switch, these APs unlock the power of
wireless switching and facilitate advanced features such
as centralized AP management, seamless Layer 3 roaming,
tunneling between multiple IP subnets, and rogue AP
detection and jamming.
Overview
The DWL-7130AP is a dual band access point capable of
supporting users on both 802.11a and 802.11g wireless
standards. The DWL-7230AP provides the same dual band
802.11a/g functionality as the DWL-7130AP, but is also 802.3af
PoE compliant. When used with the xStack DXS/DWS-3227P
PoE enabled switch, power can be provided to the AP over
standard CAT5 Ethernet cabling, eliminating the need for
additional wiring.
The DWL-2130AP and DWL-2230AP (PoE capable model) are
a lower cost solution for networks not needing to support
the 802.11a standard. With support for 802.11b and 802.11g,
these wireless APs are compatible with the industry’s most
commonly used wireless network protocol.

1 Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g 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. Environmental factors will adversely
affect wireless signal range.
