ECW230s Packaging
The packaging of ECW230s is identical to other models that EnGenius are offering. The recycle-friendly box has no color images or specifications on it. I do have to mention that this Access Point is specifically designed to be used in Business applications. (primarily stores and coffee shops)
Upon closely examining the box, I found a single product description inside “Dual-Band Wi-Fi 6 4×4 Indoor Access Point”. Another feature to point out here is the “Wi-Fi Enabled Facebook” In this feature; you can directly forward users from the captive screen to Facebook when the user logs on to the Access Point.
The internal packaging of the ECW230s is straight forward and what you get in the tightly packed box is a set of install brackets, an EnGenius guide to the Cloud Management, and the Access Point itself. No, there is not a power injector included. You must purchase a power injector or use ECW230s with a POE (Power Over Ethernet) switch.
