The EnGenius ECB300 is a 2.4GHz Wireless-N Indoor Access Point / Client Bridge / WDS / Repeater that features high transmit power (up to 29 dBm) for long range Wi-Fi coverage, wireless speeds up to 300Mbps and a Fast Ethernet port for connecting to a switch or router.

This high-powered AP/CB is designed to expand the number of users and devices that can access an existing wireless network within large or multi-story buildings or expansive, client-intensive facilities like hotels, resorts, hospitals, office buildings, universities or other multi-building campus facilities that need to offer employees, guests, staff or students access to network resources like printers, content or the Internet.

The ECB300 can be configured to operate in several modes – as a Wireless-N Access Point, Client Bridge, WDS Access Point, WDS Bridge, Repeater, or AP Router.

The ECB300’s two detachable/upgradeable MIMO (Multiple In/Multiple Out) 5dBi antenna array results in enhanced receive sensitivity and connectivity to access points and wireless clients even in areas where connections have been previously challenging or non-existent.

For deployments on ceilings or in crawlspaces where power outlets may be scarce, the ECB300 is also PoE (Power-over-Ethernet) capable when used with a PoE injector, like the 802.3af compliant EnGenius EPE5818af.

The ECB300 also features industry standard wireless network encryption settings, like WEP, and WPA/WPA2, to protect the network from unauthorized access. For small-to-medium-sized office or larger corporate deployments the ECB300 also can be configured with MAC address filtering so only known and MAC address recognized client devices can access the network and unauthorized client devices can be isolated.

The ECB300 includes EZ Controller Access Point Management software that provides a robust suite of tools for IT managers, installers and network administrators who deploy, manage and maintain wireless networks. With EZ Controller, EnGenius Wireless Indoor and Outdoor Access Points and Client Bridges can be configured, controlled and monitored from one central location.
