Curation Review
- ✔ Pros: Tri-band Wi-Fi 7 with 10 spatial streams and up to 11.4 Gbps on 6 GHz; 10GbE uplink supports high-throughput wired backhaul; Redundant 1GbE port provides uplink failover; Rated for 1000+ concurrent clients; Managed through UniFi Network with per-user rate limiting and guest traffic isolation; Competitive $499 US list price for a 10-stream tri-band Wi-Fi 7 AP
- ✘ Cons: Requires 802.3bt PoE++ power, so it will not run on standard 802.3at PoE+ switches; Indoor-only design, not suited to outdoor or harsh environments; Rated coverage of about 185 m² per unit means dense deployments need additional APs; 2.4 GHz radio is only 2x2, limiting legacy-band performance; Full enterprise feature set requires a UniFi Network controller (self-hosted or UniFi OS console)
- Est. Price: $499
