Uplink Port Speed: 1x 100M/1G/2.5G/5G Multigigabit Ethernet (mGig)
Max Clients: Up to 1,200 (400 per radio)
PoE Requirement: 802.3bt (UPOE) for full features; 802.3at (PoE+) for wireless only
Curation Review
✔ Pros:Wi-Fi 6E & 6 GHz Support for massive spectrum and low interference; Dual-persona management allows switching between Catalyst and Meraki; Integrated environmental sensors for temperature, humidity, and air quality
✘ Cons:Requires 802.3bt (UPOE) for full functionality including USB; Mandatory and expensive ongoing subscription licenses (DNA or Meraki); Large and heavy physical design compared to standard APs
✔ Pros:Industry-leading WiFi 7 performance, dedicated spectral scanning engine for real-time interference analysis, high density support for 500+ clients, and seamless integration into the UniFi ecosystem.
✘ Cons:Requires PoE+ (802.3at) power source, 2.5 GbE uplink may bottleneck the 15 Gbps theoretical aggregate wireless throughput, and requires a UniFi Console or Network Server for configuration.
