Features

Save money and save time UniFi comes bundled with a non-dedicated software controller that can be deployed on an on-site PC, Mac, or Linux machine; in a private cloud; or using a public cloud service. You also have the option of using the UniFi Cloud Key with built-in software.

Powerful Hardware The UniFi AC Mesh APs feature Wi-Fi 802.11AC with Plug & Play Mesh technology.

Intuitive UniFi Controller Software Configure and manage your APs with the easy-to-learn user interface.

Expandable Unlimited scalability: build wireless networks as big or small as needed. Start with one and expand to thousands while maintaining a single unified management system.

Use Cases

Mesh Multi-Hop A large outdoor area, such as a park with minimal infrastructure, can take advantage of a mesh network comprised of the UniFi AC Mesh models.

Omnidirectional Coverage, Indoors/Outdoors The UniFi AC Mesh AP includes adjustable dual-band omni antennas.

You have the option to use a 5 GHz omni antenna1 for spot-beam coverage in high-density locations with numerous APs and clients, like a conference hall or event center.

Directional Coverage, Outdoors The UAP-AC-M is versatile.

You have the option to use a 5 GHz sector antenna2 (wide beam in the azimuth plane and narrow in the elevation plane) for broad outdoor coverage.

Maximum Coverage, Outdoors The UAP-AC-M-PRO is ideal for applications requiring 3x3 MIMO data rates for close-in omni coverage.

Temporary Installations Deploy the UniFi AC Mesh models for outdoor installations requiring quick setup and takedown, such as a street fair, music festival or concert venue.

1 Different antenna gains are allowed for each regulatory domain or country. It is the installer’s responsibility to check local regulations.
