Simple and clean installation, anywhere.
It can be ceiling-mounted, wall-mounted, or placed on a desk. The DAP-X2850’s PoE function allows for easy installation with a single cable. Perfect for advanced installations in areas where power outlets are not readily available.

Advanced and customisable on‑premise network management.
Nuclias is a unified network management tool with cost-effective scalability, customisable controls, and is designed as a solution for every type of business.

Efficient multi‑site management.
Manage multiple sites easily by setting authority levels for head and branch-level offices and setting different configurations. Network devices can be pre-configured before being dispatched to regional offices, allowing faster and more efficient deployments.

Manage your business network, like never before.
Nuclias Connect enables you to manage and control your network from anywhere with an Internet connection. It provides an extensive understanding of your network and its users through traffic analytics and status reports, which can be viewed at a glance through the intuitive interface via a browser or the app. Insights derived from this traffic data can be used to create business value, and traffic can be viewed across the entire network, and to the level of a single AP.

Your Guests Online in No Time with a Captive Portal.
Get your guests online quickly and easily with a captive portal. Not only can you let them connect using just their email address, Facebook or Google account, it also gives your business the opportunity to increase brand awareness and advertise promotions. At the same time, it can provide user insights that allow businesses to better understand their customers.

Scale your Wi‑Fi alongside your business.
Nuclias Connect gives you the financial and technical flexibility to expand from a small network to up to 1,000 Access Points while retaining a robust and centralised management system.

Dedicated controller to manage your network.
The Nuclias Connect Hub (DNH-100) is an optional but efficient hardware controller that’s dedicated to provide an inexpensive, maintenance-free and ready-made solution for configuring and managing your network. Simply plug in and power on.

How to use

Mount the access point on a ceiling, wall or place it on a desk and connect it to your wired network using the Ethernet ports. If PoE is available, a single PoE cable can provide both power and data to simplify installation. Use Nuclias Connect software or the mobile app to discover the AP, apply configurations, set SSIDs and security (WPA3/WPA2), and assign user and role-based permissions. Optionally, deploy the Nuclias Connect Hub as a local hardware controller for on-premises management.

Recommendations

For optimal performance in dense deployments enable band steering, airtime fairness and MU‑MIMO; place APs to avoid physical obstructions and use the 2.5G uplink where available to prevent backhaul bottlenecks. Use the captive portal for guest access and Nuclias analytics to monitor traffic and plan capacity.
