The UniFi 6 Enterprise is a great access point if you need to support a lot of clients and want to be ready for the future. But for most home users, the Enterprise access point is overkill. The UAP-AC-M-PRO features simultaneous dual-band coverage via the 802.11ac enabled 3x3 MIMO connection, with speeds of up to 1300 Mbps on the 5GHz band and up to 450 Mbps on 2.4 GHz. If 1000 concurrent clients are not enough then we have the UniFi XG as the last step. This access point is designed for very high-density environments, think of concert halls or large auditoriums, where you have a lot of people in a really small space.

Ubiquiti's UniFi UAP-AC-PRO features simultaneous, dual-band, 3x3 MIMO technology and convenient 802.3af PoE/802.3at PoE+ compatibility. The Ubiquiti UniFi AC Pro offers speeds of up to 450Mbps in 2GHz and 1300 Mbps in 5GHz. Ubiquiti UniFi is the revolutionary Wi-Fi system that combines enterprise performance, unlimited scalability, and a central management controller. The UniFi 802.11AC Dual Radio Access Points have a refined industrial design and can be easily installed using the included mounting hardware. Remote ManagementBut with the release of the Unifi 6 Lite, I think that is about the change. Both have almost the same throughput, only the 5Ghz is a bit faster. But the advantage of the 6 Lite is that it supports WiFi 6 with OFDMA allowing it to handle more clients simultaneously. We have, for example, the UniFi NanoHD, Lite, Long Range, Flex HD, and now even Wifi 6 devices. All great products, but which one do you need for your home or office network? Ubiquiti offers a couple of UniFi access points that can be used outdoor. I have written a more detailed guide about the outdoor access points that you can find here. To keep all the UniFi ap comparisons in one overview I will also briefly mention them here.

At the moment of writing the first UniFi access point that supports the new WiFi standard 6E. This means that it has a 6 GHz channel besides the 2.4 and 5ghz channels. The access point only has a single 2.5 Gbps ethernet port. This means that you will need to connect it to a 10Gbit switch to fully benefit the throughput of WiFi 6E mainly is focused on simultaneous clients. These models are normally not needed in a normal home network or small/medium office. The access points are designed for a specific purpose, for example, to handle a high amount of concurrent users or to cover a large area. Regional regulations must be observed when deploying radio equipment. More info Power Input Power Consumption Not everybody can mount their access points to the ceiling or wall. That is where the Unifi FlexHD comes in. This small and sleek design allows you to place insight, on a cabinet for example. It’s also possible to buy a ceiling or wall mount for the Flex HD. The Main port is a Gigabit PoE port used to connect the power and should be connected to the LAN and DHCP server. Power can be provided by one of the following:

This is the secure version of the Unifi HD. The main difference between the two is that the SHD is designed for secure areas, like hospitals and banks. The SHD is designed with a dedicated dual-band radio to constantly monitor and protect the wireless network traffic. This is really your go-to access point for in-house usage. It’s affordable, small, and comes with excellent performance. It’s better to buy 2 lite models and spread them throughout the house than one long-range model. UniFi 6 Long Range – U6-LR The UAP-AC-M-PRO supports wireless adoption into your UniFi Wi-Fi network. This feature requires a currently managed UniFi AP operating with the following configuration:
