DrayTek VigorAP 912C 802.11ac Wave2 Dual-Band Ceiling-Mount Wireless Access Point (VAP912C-K)
DrayTek VigorAP 912C 802.11ac Wave2 Dual-Band Ceiling-Mount Wireless Access Point (VAP912C-K)
The DrayTek VigorAP 912C is a high-performance Mesh Wireless solution, designed to expand the wireless coverage, eliminate WiFi dead zones and significantly reduce the cost of network deployments. It can also be used as a traditional access point either managed or stand alone so has the flexibility to be used how you need it.
DrayTek VigorAP 912C Key Features
- Ceiling-mount Mesh Wireless Access Point and Range Extender
- AC1200 - 11ac ‘Wave 2’ Dual Band Wireless
- Power through 802.3af PoE or DC power adapter
- Multi-SSID over Mesh – Separate internal and Guest networks over Mesh
- Centrally Managed or Standalone operation
- Advanced Access Control with Mobile Device Management and Station Control
The VigorAP 912C is a dual-band 802.11ac Wave 2 Mesh Wireless solution, designed to eliminate wireless drop outs, stuttering videos, slow download speeds, poor signal and WiFi dead zones. One access point acts as the controller (Mesh root) and in total up to 8 access points create an easy to manage wireless mesh. Extend coverage without running expensive cabling.
Mesh Wireless
DrayTek’s Mesh system connects and intelligently manages a group of VigorAPs over wireless. The Self-Optimising Mesh ensures your wireless network nodes are always using the fastest path to the Mesh Root.
Auto-Optimisation
Mesh Nodes identify the best next hop and connect with it automatically. In case of a Mesh Node failure, the surrounding nodes automatically re-connect and resume service without downtime.
Gigabit Power Over Ethernet
The VigorAP 912C can be powered through its Gigabit Ethernet interface with standard IEEE 802.3af PoE, for a tidier and more convenient installation.
Easy to Configure and Manage
The DrayTek Wireless app simplifies setting up your network. Optionally configure and monitor through one of DrayTek’s management platforms - VigorACS cloud, VigorConnect, Router AP Management, or directly via the AP’s Web Interface.
Ceiling Mounting
The VigorAP 912C shape blends well with most home or office interior. Its adaptable deployment options include ceilings and wall mounting. Includes secure ceiling mounting plate and easy to install mounting clips for suspended ceilings.
