Ubiquiti - Frequently Asked Questions

Access Points & Wireless Performance

This section answers common questions about UniFi access points, including Wi-Fi 6 models, dual-band capabilities (2.4GHz and 5GHz), throughput speeds in Mbps, and the difference between devices like the Ubiquiti UniFi AC Pro and newer models.

The Ubiquiti UniFi AC Pro is a reliable dual-band access point (AP) offering strong 2.4GHz and 5GHz performance, ideal for most standard wireless needs. In contrast, the UniFi Wi-Fi 6 Pro AP features next-gen Wi-Fi 6 technology, 4x4 MU-MIMO, higher Mbps throughput, and better handling of high-density environments, making it more future-proof.

The 5GHz band supports faster speeds and experiences less interference than 2.4GHz, but with shorter range. UniFi access points, including the Wi-Fi 6 Pro AP, intelligently manage devices across both bands to balance speed and coverage, depending on your environment.

"AP 4x4" refers to the number of transmit and receive streams on the access point. A 4x4 UniFi AP, like the U6-Enterprise, offers improved data rates and wireless efficiency, particularly when using multiple devices on a Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 6E network.

Place your UniFi APs centrally, elevate them (e.g., ceiling-mounted), and avoid physical obstructions. Use Cat6 cabling and ensure you're using PoE injectors or switches as required. For best results, combine multiple UniFi products under a single UniFi Network controller.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) & Hardware Setup

Explore how to power and install Ubiquiti products using Power over Ethernet (PoE), the role of PoE injectors, and compatible cabling and switches to optimise your UniFi network.

PoE allows a single Ethernet cable to deliver both data and power to devices like the Ubiquiti UniFi AC Pro or Wi-Fi 6 Pro AP. Many UniFi access points support PoE, which simplifies installation—especially for ceiling or wall-mounted setups.

Not all models include a PoE injector. Some newer Ubiquiti products, such as the U6-Pro or U6-Enterprise, may require a separate purchase. Always check the product details to confirm whether a PoE injector is included.

Yes, as long as the switch supports the correct PoE standard (typically 802.3af/at), it will power compatible UniFi APs. However, using a UniFi Switch ensures seamless integration with the UniFi Network system.

Cat6 or Cat6a cables are recommended for reliable power delivery and data transfer, especially over long distances. These are suitable for high-performance setups like Wi-Fi 6 access points or multi-band ceiling-mounted units.

UniFi Ecosystem & Product Range

Learn how Ubiquiti UniFi devices work together—from wireless APs and cameras to switches and management platforms like UniFi Protect and UISP.

The UniFi ecosystem includes access points, switches, security gateways, video surveillance (UniFi Protect), and management software. Products like the Ubiquiti UniFi Wi-Fi 6 Pro, G4 Doorbell Pro, and UniFi Switch Enterprise all integrate under a unified platform.

The UniFi Network Controller lets you monitor, configure, and update all UniFi devices from one interface. Whether you're managing an access point, switch, or camera, UniFi Network offers centralised control, including guest networks and performance insights in Mbps.

AirMax is designed for outdoor, long-range wireless bridging and point-to-point (PtP) links, ideal for rural or campus setups. UniFi, on the other hand, is built for scalable indoor enterprise Wi-Fi and networking, including Wi-Fi 6 APs and PoE-powered switches.

Yes, many UniFi products can operate alongside third-party devices, though full feature access (like advanced AI event detections or ir night vision for cameras) is best achieved within the UniFi system.
