The TRENDnet TEW-W960DAP is an AX1800 Dual Band WiFi 6 PoE In-Wall Access Point designed to bring modern wireless coverage directly into individual rooms or workspaces. It’s built to fit into a **standard 1-gang wall box**, and it comes with **included wall plates** for a clean, discreet look. This makes it a good fit for: - Hotel rooms and hospitality spaces - Offices and meeting rooms - Dorms, classrooms, or multi-tenant units - Any environment where you want WiFi to blend into the wall rather than use a ceiling-mounted AP Because it’s powered via **PoE (Power over Ethernet)**, you only need a single Ethernet cable for both data and power, simplifying installation and reducing visible cabling.

The TEW-W960DAP is an **AX1800 Dual Band WiFi 6** access point, which means it uses two concurrent WiFi bands and WiFi 6 features to improve performance and efficiency. Key performance details: - **5GHz band:** up to **1201Mbps** - **2.4GHz band:** up to **573Mbps** - Combined AX1800-class throughput Core WiFi 6 technologies included: - **1024-QAM** to increase data throughput over the air - **OFDMA** to make more efficient use of available spectrum, especially with many clients - **MU-MIMO** to handle **multiple data streams simultaneously**, improving real-time performance when many devices are connected Additional features that help optimize the user experience: - **Band steering** to guide devices to the most appropriate band (2.4GHz vs 5GHz) - **Bandwidth control** to manage and allocate available capacity - **Access control** to help you manage who can connect The unit also includes a **gigabit pass-through port**, allowing you to connect a wired device (such as a desk phone, PC, or IPTV box) directly through the in-wall AP while still providing WiFi coverage.

You can manage and configure the TEW-W960DAP locally, but it’s also designed to be easily administered at scale through **TRENDnet Hive**, TRENDnet’s remote network cloud manager. With **TRENDnet Hive**, you can: - Configure and monitor TEW-W960DAP units **remotely** - Centralize management for multiple access points across different locations - Reduce on-site visits and manual configuration time A key benefit is that **no additional hardware, server, or personal cloud is required**. The TEW-W960DAP connects to TRENDnet’s cloud service, so you can reimagine how you deploy and manage in-wall WiFi by using a cloud-based approach instead of building and maintaining your own management infrastructure.
