Bring reliable WiFi to every room without adding clutter. This video highlights the TRENDnet TEW-W960DAP in-wall WiFi 6 access point and how it supports modern environments with a low-profile design, gigabit pass-through, and cloud management through TRENDnet Hive. Watch the video to see how you can scale connectivity while keeping deployment simple and efficient.
What is the TEW-W960DAP and where is it typically installed?
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.
What WiFi performance and features does the TEW-W960DAP provide?
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.
How is the TEW-W960DAP managed and what is TRENDnet Hive?
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.
