Aggregate Throughput: 5.3 Gbps (4.8 Gbps on 5 GHz at 160 MHz + 573.5 Mbps on 2.4 GHz at 40 MHz)
Radios (bands): 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz; no 6 GHz radio
Uplink Port Speed: 1x 1GbE RJ45 (10/100/1000)
Max Clients: 250+ per Ubiquiti tech specs page; some resellers list 300+
PoE Requirement: 802.3at PoE+ (about 13W max, per third-party listings); 48V DC adapter available as an option (official input range 44-57V DC)
Curation Review
✔ Pros:Wi-Fi 6 with 4x4 MU-MIMO on 5 GHz for good multi-client performance; Aggregate throughput of about 5.3 Gbps; Managed through the UniFi controller with central configuration and monitoring; Single-cable PoE+ deployment; Lower price than many enterprise-grade Wi-Fi 6 access points (about $159-$230 USD); Low-profile ceiling-mount design suited to indoor offices
✘ Cons:No 6 GHz radio, so no Wi-Fi 6E capacity; Single 1GbE uplink limits wired backhaul for high-throughput traffic; 2.4 GHz radio is only 2x2 with uplink MU-MIMO; Full feature set requires a UniFi controller (Cloud Key, UniFi OS console, or self-hosted); Client capacity is lower than some enterprise competitors, and sources disagree on whether it is 250+ or 300+; Spec-sheet and reseller figures differ, so verify with Ubiquiti before relying on them

Technical Specifications
Wi-Fi Standard: Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be), tri-band
Spatial Streams (MIMO): 6 total (2x2 MU-MIMO per radio: 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, 6 GHz)
PoE Requirement: 802.3at (PoE+), approx. 21 W; PoE+ injector or switch not included
Management: UniFi Network 8.0.26 or later
Mounting: Ceiling or wall mount, indoor
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
