Scalable and Unied Enterprise Wi-Fi
Management

The UniFi® Enterprise Wi-Fi System is a scalable enterprise
access point solution designed to be easily deployed and
managed. UniFi Access Point (AP) indoor models have a
sleek design and can be easily mounted to a ceiling tile
or wall using the included mounting hardware. UniFi AP
(UAP) outdoor models have a form factor built to last
outdoors.

The UniFi Enterprise Wi-Fi System includes the UniFi
Controller software. The software installs on any PC,
Mac, or Linux machine within the network and is easily
accessible through any standard web browser. Using the
UniFi Controller software, an Enterprise Wi-Fi network

can be quickly congured and administered without any

special training. Real-time status, automatic UAP device
detection, map loading, and advanced security options
are all seamlessly integrated.

Features

Save money and save time Unlike traditional enterprise

Wi-Fi systems that utilize a hardware controller, UniFi
comes bundled with a non-dedicated software controller
that can be deployed on an on-premise PC, Mac, or
Linux machine; in a private cloud; or using a public

cloudservice.

Powerful Hardware The UniFi AccessPoints feature Wi-Fi

802.11n MIMO technology for superior performance in

the 2.4 and/or 5GHz bands, and ranges up to 600 ft.

Intuitive UniFi Controller Software Install, congure,

and manage all of your UniFi APs with the intuitive and
easy-to-learn UniFi Controller user interface.

Expandable Unlimited scalability. Build wireless
networks as big or small as needed. Start with one (or
upgrade to a three-pack) and expand to thousands while

maintaining a single unied management system.

UniFi Controller

Packed with Features

Use the UniFi Controller to provision thousands
of UniFi APs, map out networks, quickly manage

system trafc, and provision additional UniFi APs.

Breakthrough RF Map

Use the RF map to monitor and analyze
radio frequencies for optimal AP placement,

conguration, and troubleshooting.

Detailed Analytics

Use the congurable reporting and analytics to

manage large user populations and expedite
troubleshooting.

Wireless Uplink

Wireless Uplink functionality enables wireless
connectivity between APs for extended range. One
wired UniFi AP uplink supports up to four wireless
downlinks on a single operating band, allowing
wireless adoption of devices in their default state
and real-time changes to network topology.

Guest Portal/Hotspot Support

Easy customization and options for Guest Portals
include authentication, Hotspot setup, and the

ability to use your own external portal server. Use

UniFi’s rate limiting for your Guest Portal/Hotspot

package offerings. Apply different bandwidth rates
(download/upload), limit total data usage, and
limit duration of use.

Datasheet

Dashboard

UniFi provides a visual representation of your network’s status
and delivers basic information about each network segment.

All UniFi APs include Hotspot functionality:

• Built-in support for billing integration using

major credit cards.

• Built-in support for voucher-based

authentication.

• Built-in Hotspot Manager for voucher creation,

guest management, and payment refund.

• Full customization and branding of Hotspot

portal pages.

Multi-Site Management

A single UniFi Controller running in the cloud
can manage multiple sites: multiple, distributed
deployments and multi-tenancy for managed
service providers. Each site is logically separated

and has its own conguration, maps, statistics,

guest portal, and administrator read/write and
read-only accounts.

WLAN Groups

The UniFi Controller can manage exible
congurations of large deployments. Create multiple
WLAN groups and assign them to an AP’sradio.

RF Map

Monitor UniFi APs and analyze the surrounding RF environment.

Statistics

UniFi organizes and visualizes network trafc in clear and

easy-to-read graphs.

Extend Your Coverage

With the UniFi Controller software running in a NOC or in the cloud, administrators can extend and centrally manage wide
areas of indoor and outdoor coverage using any combination of UniFi APs.

Below are some examples of how UniFi APs can be deployed.

Increase Capacity and Throughput

Innovative Multi-Lane RF Technology

Wireless client devices in high-density areas experience

signicant interference and noise stemming from

multiple APs using the same operating band.

With the launch of the UniFi AP-Outdoor+, Ubiquiti
Networks introduces our patented Multi-Lane™ RF
technology, which optimizes the operating channel
and rejects interference using specialized circuitry, the

High-Selectivity Receiver(HSR).

Our innovative Multi-Lane RF technology isolates signals
on the operating channel and removes adjacent channel
interference. Wireless capacity and throughput are
increased in high-density areas, and multiple APs can

operate in closeproximity.

Typical AP Performance

Although theoretically channels 1, 6, and 11 of the 2.4GHz

operating band shouldn’t overlap, in practice there is
cross-channel interference that affects performance,
especially in noisy, high-density environments. For

example, with a typical AP operating on channel 6, it also

hears RF from channels 1 and 11, because the typical AP

has a generic lter that only lters out any non-2.4 GHz
interference–all 2.4 GHz frequencies are still allowed in.

Superior UniFi AP-Outdoor+ Performance

When the UniFi AP-Outdoor+ operates on channel 6,
its HSR lter specically eliminates all non-channel6

frequencies, creating a clean spectrum with minimal
noise. So with Multi-Lane RF technology, you truly have

three high-speed, multi-lane channels (1, 6, and 11)

available for superior capacity and throughput.
