  • Page 6: Introduction

    Section 1 - Product Overview Introduction D-Link, an industry leader in networking, introduces the new D-Link DAP-3315 Wireless N Exterior Access Point. With the ability to transfer files with a maximum wireless signal rate of up to 300 Mbps , the DAP-3315 gives you ability to add high-speed wireless network access to places outside of your internal networking environment.
  • Page 7 Section 1 - Product Overview Ultimate Performance The D-Link Wireless N Exterior Access Point (DAP-3315) is an 802.11n compliant device that delivers real world performance of up to 300 Mbps , much faster than an 802.11g wireless connection (also faster than a 100 Mbps wired Ethernet connection). Create a secure wireless network to share photos, files, music, video, printers, and network storage outside of your normal internal networking environment.

  • Page 8: Features

    • Compatible with IEEE802.11g Devices - The DAP-3315 is still fully compatible with the 802.11g standards, so it can connect with existing 802.11g adapters. • Built-in High Gain Sector Antenna - The DAP-3315 comes equipped with a high powered 12 dBi antenna that helps to provide better wireless coverage and increases signal strength.

  • Page 9: Hardware Overview

    Note: The DAP-3315 uses a proprietary PoE injector which is needed to function correctly. Only use the included PoE injector as other power sources such as 3rd party PoE injectors or PoE switches or hubs may damage the DAP-3315 or cause it to operate unreliably, and will also void the warranty.
