Curation Review

  • ✔ Pros: Tri-band Wi-Fi 7 with dedicated 6 GHz radio for less congestion; Roughly 9.3 Gbps aggregate across bands at a relatively low price for Wi-Fi 7; 2.5 GbE uplink lets it exceed gigabit wired backhaul; Powered by standard 802.3at PoE+, so it runs on common PoE+ switches; Supports 300+ concurrent clients, suitable for medium-density offices; Managed centrally through UniFi Network with no per-device license fees
  • ✘ Cons: Single 2.5 GbE uplink port, with no 10 GbE option; PoE+ power adapter or injector is not included, so a PoE+ switch is needed; Only 2x2 per radio, so real-world throughput trails higher-end Wi-Fi 7 APs; Requires UniFi Network 8.0.26 or later, so it cannot run standalone; US retail prices vary widely between sellers and the official spec sheet was not reachable to confirm the throughput figures
  • Est. Price: $189 - $206
