UBIQUITI Networks UniFi 802.11AC 3x3 MIMO Outdoor Mesh Pro Access Point

Product Information

The UniFi HD is designed for high-density environments, like a school or concert venue. The UniFi HD has two ethernet ports, where 1 port can be used to bridge to another access point or as an extra uplink.

You can also place the U6-LR in a semi-outdoor environment because it’s IP54 rated. If your house has multiple floors, or when you can only place one access point, then the U6-LR is a really good choice to mount on the ground floor (and use the lite models for the other levels).

The BaseStation only offers a 5Ghz Tri-band radio, so no 2.4Ghz radio. You can choose between Small Cell and Large Cell setup, allowing you to optimize the installation for maximum coverage. 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. 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 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: Dedicated hardware offload for QoS, Guest Control, and client management ensures high throughput and reduced latency.

At the moment of writing, you can buy almost 20 different access points from Ubiquiti. There are also 3 new models available in the early access store. That is a lot to choose from, so we are going to divide the different models into groups. In the early access store, we can also find the new Unifi 6 Mesh, which has the same design as the FlexHD and is likely going to replace the FlexHD in the near future. Read more about it in the outdoor section. UniFi In-Wall HD – UAP-IW-HDWe recommend that you protect your networks from harmful outdoor environments and destructive ESD events with industrial-grade, shielded Ethernet cable from Ubiquiti.

Read my full review of the new Unifi 6 Lite and 6 Long Range in this article, including performance tests. At the moment of writing is the 6 Mesh still in early access. With a similar design as the FlexHD and given the name, I think the Unifi 6 Mesh is going to replace the FlexHD and Unifi Mesh in the near future.
