Simplified Network Management for SMBs
Unlike cloud-only solutions or complex enterprise controllers, the DNH-100 offers the perfect balance between simplicity and capability. The built-in Nuclias Connect software provides a web-based dashboard that makes network monitoring, configuration, and troubleshooting straightforward - even for IT teams with limited resources. Create multiple SSIDs, configure VLANs, set time-based access rules, manage bandwidth allocation, and monitor real-time network health across all your locations. The controller supports multi-tenancy and role-based access, allowing you to delegate management authority to regional offices or departments while maintaining centralised oversight.
Advanced Network Analytics & Insights
Gain deep visibility into your wireless network with comprehensive traffic analytics and status reports. The DNH-100 delivers actionable intelligence through real-time usage data, helping you identify network bottlenecks, plan capacity upgrades, and troubleshoot connectivity issues. View network traffic at a glance across all devices or drill down to individual access points. The platform also supports captive portal authentication, payment gateway integration, and front desk ticket management - ideal for guest Wi-Fi in retail, hospitality, and education environments.
Compact, Rack-Mountable Design
Despite its powerful capabilities, the DNH-100 has a compact footprint of just 190 × 100 × 31 mm and weighs only 529 grams. The controller is fully equipped with a Gigabit Ethernet port, USB 3.0 port, Micro SD slot, and console port, providing all the connectivity you need for network integration and local management. It ships with a rack-mounting kit for professional installation in standard 19-inch racks, or can be deployed on a desktop in smaller environments.
Self-Healing & Self-Optimising Network
The DNH-100 features intelligent self-organising and self-optimising capabilities including interval-based radio scanning, automatic radio frequency management, and L2/L3 access point discovery. These self-healing features ensure your network maintains stability and optimal performance even during peak usage times, reducing the need for manual intervention and minimising downtime.
Easy Remote & Multi-Site Management
Manage your network from anywhere with optional remote access at no additional charge. The free Nuclias Connect mobile app lets you monitor network health, push configuration updates, and troubleshoot issues on the go from your smartphone or tablet. For businesses with multiple locations, you can manage multiple DNH-100 controllers through a Single Sign-On (SSO) portal, providing unified oversight across distributed networks. Pre-configure devices before shipping them to branch offices for foolproof deployments and easy scaling.
