TRENDnet's high performance AC1200 Dual Band Wireless PoE Access Point, model TEW-821DAP, supports Access Point (AP), Client, Wireless Distribution System (WDS) AP, WDS Bridge, WDS Station, and Repeater modes. It generates concurrent 867 Mbps WiFi AC and 300 Mbps WiFi N networks. The included Windows-based software utility manages multiple TEW-821DAPs and reduces WiFi management and troubleshooting time. It features advanced access control, QoS, traffic management, band steering, and captive portal support. The low profile blends into most environments and a mounting plate eases installation.

*Maximum wireless signal rates are referenced from IEEE 802.11 theoretical specifications. Actual data throughput and coverage will vary depending on interference, network traffic, building materials and other conditions. For maximum performance of up to 867Mbps use with an 867Mbps 802.11ac wireless adapter. For maximum performance of up to 300Mbps, use with a 300Mbps 802.11n wireless adapter.
**Due to regulatory requirements, the wireless channels specified cannot be statically assigned, but will be available within the available wireless channels when set to auto.
