D-Link DLA-X301 AX3000 Wi-Fi 6 D-Lite Cloud Access Point

Business Wi-Fi That Is Easier to Manage Create a consistent indoor wireless service with the D-Link DLA-X301. This AX3000 dual-band Wi-Fi 6 access point combines two Gigabit Ethernet ports, PoE power and flexible ceiling, wall or horizontal desktop placement. It suits offices, shops and other business spaces that need practical Wi-Fi administration without a complicated on-site controller installation. D-Lite cloud management centralises configuration and monitoring with no recurring cloud-management subscription. Guest access, multiple SSIDs, radio controls and authentication options let you shape the network around different users, while web and mobile access make routine maintenance easier across one or several sites. Highlights Wireless Access AX3000 Wi-Fi 6 on 2.4GHz and 5GHz. Up to 574 Mbps on 2.4GHz and 2,402 Mbps on 5GHz. Up to 16 SSIDs, with up to eight per wireless band. Deployment and Control Two Gigabit RJ45 ports; IEEE 802.3at PoE input on LAN1. Ceiling, wall or horizontal desktop placement. Subscription-free D-Lite cloud management, RADIUS authentication and captive portal support. Key Features Dual-Band Wi-Fi 6 for Everyday Business The DLA-X301 provides AX3000-class wireless with up to 574 Mbps on 2.4GHz and 2,402 Mbps on 5GHz. MU-MIMO and band steering help manage a mix of connected devices. Use the 5GHz band for suitable higher-throughput clients while retaining 2.4GHz connectivity for compatible devices that need it. Actual performance depends on the radio environment and network design. Cloud Management Without a Recurring Fee D-Lite brings supported devices into a central cloud interface for configuration, monitoring and maintenance. The mobile app provides another way to check the network when you are away from the desk. An active D-Lite account and internet access are required for cloud functions, with no recurring cloud-management subscription to budget for. Power and Data Over One Cable LAN1 supports IEEE 802.3at PoE, allowing a compatible switch or injector to deliver power and data through Ethernet cabling. A 12V DC 1.5A input is also supported. Both Ethernet ports operate at up to Gigabit speed, and the manufacturer specifies consumption below 12W for PoE or adapter operation. Separate Wireless Services for Different Users Support for up to 16 SSIDs, with up to eight per band, gives you room to organise staff and guest access. RADIUS authentication, captive portal support, guest isolation and station isolation provide additional control. Match the chosen security method to your client devices, authentication services and internal network policy. Controls for a Consistent WLAN Automatic channel management, band steering and 802.11k/v/r support help tune a multi-access-point network. These tools work best with considered placement and suitable client support. Pre-configured deployment and remote management can reduce repetitive setup work, while diagnostic and monitoring functions help identify issues after installation. Installation That Fits the Space A discreet enclosure with internal antennas supports ceiling or wall mounting as well as horizontal desktop use. The access point measures 200.6 × 200.6 × 40 mm and weighs 491 g without its mount. Place it indoors within the 0–40 °C operating range, with access for cabling and maintenance and a location selected around the intended coverage. Summary The D-Link DLA-X301 combines AX3000 Wi-Fi 6, Gigabit Ethernet, PoE and subscription-free D-Lite cloud management for indoor business networks. Its flexible mounting, multiple SSIDs and authentication options make it a practical access point for organisations seeking a consistent, manageable wireless service across their premises. Frequently Asked Questions Does D-Lite cloud management require a subscription?ExpandCollapse D-Lite cloud management has no recurring subscription charge. An active D-Lite account and an internet connection are required for cloud access. You can use the cloud interface and mobile app to configure and monitor supported devices across sites without installing a dedicated on-site hardware controller. Does the DLA-X301 support 6GHz or Wi-Fi 7?ExpandCollapse No. It is a dual-band Wi-Fi 6 access point using 2.4GHz and 5GHz. It supports earlier compatible Wi-Fi devices, but it does not provide a 6GHz radio or Wi-Fi 7 features such as MLO. What power source does it need?ExpandCollapse Use an IEEE 802.3at-compatible PoE source on LAN1 or a suitable 12V DC 1.5A power supply. The manufacturer specifies consumption below 12W. Confirm the power accessories supplied with your order and ensure the switch or injector has sufficient power budget for the complete installation. Can staff and guests have separate Wi-Fi networks?ExpandCollapse Yes. The access point supports up to 16 SSIDs, with up to eight per wireless band, alongside guest isolation, station isolation, RADIUS authentication and captive portal support. Configure the access policies and upstream network to suit your security requirements. Can it be mounted on a wall or used on a desk?ExpandCollapse Yes. The manufacturer supports ceiling mounting, wall mounting and horizontal desktop placement. Choose the position around the floor plan, cabling and intended coverage, and verify the mounting accessories required for your installation. How many users can one access point serve comfortably?ExpandCollapse Practical capacity depends on active traffic, application types, radio conditions and the available uplink. A network carrying video calls or large transfers needs a different design from one serving occasional browsing. Plan around the workload and a site survey rather than a maximum connection count alone. 続きを読む
