For schools that are considering the purchase of a new Apple TV, you will want to be aware that any model you purchase MUST have the Ethernet option included. An Ethernet port is required to permit setup of the Apple TV on the district’s network. Apple TVs without an Ethernet port will not be able to be used.
Currently, Apple has only two models of Apple TVs available. One is a WiFi only model at $129.00. The other is a WiFi and Ethernet model @ $149.00. Purchases of the WiFi only model have been blocked, so you will only be able to acquire the WiFi and Ethernet models through district vendors. If you choose to acquire Apple TVs through other means, please ensure you are purchasing the model that includes an Ethernet port.
