D-LINK DSR-500AC IEEE 802.11ac Ethernet Wireless Router

The D-Link DSR Series Unified Services Routers provide secure, high-performance networking solutions to address the growing needs of small and medium businesses. With integrated high-speed wireless technology, the DSR series routers offer comparable performance to wired networks, but with fewer limitations. Next generation wireless performance is available on the DSR-500AC and DSR-1000AC, which introduces 802.11ac support to the family. Available on the 5 GHz band, the combination of wider Radio Frequency bandwidths take data rates available to clients supporting the wireless AC standard to the next level.

Comprehensive Management Capabilities

The DSR-500/500AC and DSR-1000/1000AC Unified Services Routers include dual WAN Gigabit Ethernet ports to provide high availability for your WAN or Internet connections. Traffic can be load-balanced across the links with Outbound Load Balancing, increasing the performance and availability of business applications. The secondary WAN port can also be used to create a DMZ, isolating servers from your LAN. The DSR series supports mobile broadband networks via an extendable USB modem, such as 3G or 4G dongles. Traffic load balancing can be performed on the mobile data connections, providing an additional layer of redundancy for critical or backup applications.

Web Authentication Capabilities

Captive Portal allows employees and guest users to be easily authenticated and authorized by accessing a customized landing page. Users can be authenticated by a local database, RADIUS, LDAP, Microsoft Windows Active Directory, NT Domain and POP3 server. A maximum of four servers can be configured at any one time.
