Flexible Dualband Wireless LAN Connectivity. The small form factor DWL-8220AP
increases wireless LAN secure mobility, supports dualband WLAN connectivity, and provides
client access to the functions of the AirPremier MobileLAN DWS-1008 Wireless Switch. Each
DWL-8220AP continually tunes itself for optimal RF channel and transmit power to provide
all mobile clients with the best wireless signal in both the 802.11aand 802.11g bands.
Sensitive Information Not Stored Locally Individual DWL-8220APs have no local storing of
any data so they can be safely installed in unsecured areas without fear of hacking or theft.
The DWS-1008 Wireless Switch is the hardware that stores vital network and user
information in plain site and is typically stored in a secure location. DWL-8220APs can link to
DWS-1008s directly or through the existing wired network - even across Layer 3 boundaries
and receive Power over Ethernet (PoE) from directly connected DWS-1008s or third-party
PoE injectors.
Self Configuration and Easy Installation. The DWS-1008 Wireless Switch automatically
configures every connected DWL-8220AP so that no configuration is necessary during
installation. If a DWL-8220AP needs to be replaced, the replacement DWL-8220AP
automatically inherits the same configuration, making the replacement process analogous to
changing a light bulb.
These plenum-rated DWL-8220APs intentionally resemble smoke detectors to minimize
visibility. With no protruding antennas and no obvious hallmarks of an AP, DWL-8220APs are
less likely to be tampered with. For added protection, all APs feature a built-in security lock
interface.
Continuous Channel Scanning To Prevent Rogue APs. DWL-8220APs play a key role in
rogue detection they continuously scan both bands and their associated channels to root
out rogues while simultaneously providing wireless connectivity to mobile clients. If a rogue
is detected, the closest DWL-8220AP can launch RF Countermeasures by spoofing 802.11
control messages. This prevents clients from communicating, associating and authenticating
with a rogue.
Increases User Productivity. For important wireless transmissions such as VoIP related
applications, DWL-8220APs also deliver critical user-based services, such as prioritized
delivery of voice traffic. Supporting multiple queues per user, DWL-8220APs always prioritize
expedited traffic such as voice calls

Warning: Installation must be performed by qualified service personnel only.
Please follow all warning notices and instructions marked on the product or
included in the documentation. The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio
or TV interference caused by unauthorized modifications to this equipment.
Such modifications could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
The DWL-8220AP has two RJ-45 10/100TX ports. The DWL-8220AP receives
power and data through the RJ-45 ports. Use a CAT 5 straight-through
Ethernet cable to connect an DWL-8220AP to a DWS-1008 wireless switch or
other device in the network. The DWL-8220AP supports 802.3af, and also can
receive PoE from D-Link switches and D-Link-approved power injectors.
The two RJ-45 ports support dual-homed configurations for redundancy. A
DWL-8220AP uses only one link for booting, configuration, and data transfer. If
the link becomes unavailable, the AP can reboot using the other link. The ports
are identical except for logical numbering (1 or 2). You can use either port to
connect an access point to a DWS-1008 wireless switch. However, an access
point always attempts to boot on port 1 first. Only if the boot attempt on port
1 fails does the access point attempt to boot on port 2. If one port becomes
unavailable, the other port can provide full power to the access point.
Note: The DWL-8220AP does not support daisy-chain configurations. Do not
connect the access point to another access point.
DWL-8220AP Mounting Options
You can mount a DWL-8220AP access point on any of the
following types of surfaces:
• Suspended T-bar ceiling
• Junction box
• Solid surface wall or ceiling
• Tabletop
Note: The solid surface mounting option requires CAT 5 cable
that does not have strain relief. The other mounting options can
use CAT 5 cable with or without strain relief.
Wall Installation Recommendations
If you plan to install an AP on a partial wall or other vertical
surface, orient the top of the access point (the side with the LEDs)
toward the intended coverage area. The radio antennas transmit
through the top of the access point but not through the bottom
(where the bracket is). This recommendation does not apply if
you plan to use external antennas. You can orient the antennas
independently of the AP itself. Orient an external antenna to face
the intended coverage area.
DWS-1008 Wireless Switch Recommendations
D-Link recommends that you install and configure the DWS-1008
wireless switch before installing an access point. If the switch is
already installed and configured for the access point(s), you can
immediately verify the cable connection(s) when you plug the
cable(s) into the access point.
Warning: The DWL-8220AP is designed to receive power only
from an 802.3af-compliant source, a D-Link DWS-1008 wireless
switch, or a D-Link-approved power injector. Connecting an
access point to a Power over Ethernet (PoE) device that is not
approved by D-Link can damage the equipment.
