Detailed Specifications
TRENDnet TEW-821DAP - AC1200 Dual-Band PoE AP
Overview :
The TRENDnet TEW-821DAP is a ceiling-or-wall mountable indoor access point built for dense office or enterprise deployments. It supports both 2.4 GHz (300 Mbps) and 5 GHz (867 Mbps) bands concurrently, offering AC1200 throughput for mixed-device environments. With multiple operating modes × including Access Point, Client, WDS Bridge/AP/Station, and Repeater × it adapts to a variety of networking topologies and legacy infrastructure. Power over Ethernet (PoE) simplifies installation, eliminating the need for a separate power source in ceilings or remote locations. The low-profile housing blends into professional environments, and a mounting plate with cable-guard helps secure cabling neatly. For management, TRENDnet provides a Windows-based utility to configure and monitor multiple units, easing large-scale deployments. Additional features include advanced access control, QoS, band steering, captive portal support, and IPv6 compatibility, making it suitable for enterprise Wi-Fi, hotspot, or managed service deployments.
