EnGenius ECB1750
High-Powered, Long-Range Dual band Wireless AC1750 Indoor AP / Client Bridge

Overview:

The ECB1750 marks a new speed and performance breakthrough for users with 802.11ac laptops and other devices, who need to wirelessly stream HD video or transfer large files. The ECB1750 is an 802.11ac 3x3 Dual Band Indoor Access Point and Client Bridge. This desktop or wall mount Dual Band Access Point features speeds up to 1300 Mbps on the 5 GHz band when associated with AC client devices and up to 450 Mbps on the 2.4 GHz band. It can be configured as an Access Point, Client Bridge, or WDS (AP, Station, & Bridge) and features a high transmit RF power of 29 dBm on both frequency bands for long range connectivity. The ECB1750 is a cost-effective solution for hotels, multi-floor corporate offices, schools and universities, small-to-medium sized companies and even larger homes.

When set to Client Bridge mode, Ethernet-enabled devices such as printers and copiers can join a business’s existing wireless network when they are connected to the ECB1750’s Gigabit Ethernet port, making applications like printing from wireless laptops or tablets even easier. In WDS mode, the ECB1750 enables a company’s wireless network to be expanded without a wired connection between devices.

The ECB1750 also features Band Steering that shifts wireless traffic for Dual Band-capable clients to the 5 GHz band from the 2.4 GHz band, which helps to relieve network congestion and maintain optimal throughput speeds.

The ECB1750 supports wireless encryption standards such as Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK) Encryption, IEEE 802.1X with RADIUS. MAC Address Filtering is also included allowing network administrators to allow or deny network access to client devices (computers, tablet PCs, NAS, smartphones, etc.) according to their MAC addresses. EnGenius’ EZ Controller™ Management Software for Windows, Mac OSX, and Linux (available as a free download) allows monitoring, management, and sequential firmware upgrades of EnGenius Access Points that have already been deployed in the network from the convenience of a desk.

The ECB1750’s external MIMO antenna array is comprised of three (3) detachable 5 dBi high gain antennas for the 2.4 GHz radio and three (3) detachable 5 dBi high-gain antennas for the 5 GHz radio. This combination of high transmit power, enhanced receive sensitivity, and six (6) high gain antennas results in long range connectivity to client devices and in some venues can minimize the number of Access Points necessary for a deployment.
