Scalable and Unied 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 congured 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
cloudservice.
Powerful Hardware The UniFi AccessPoints feature Wi-Fi
802.11n MIMO technology for superior performance in
the 2.4 and/or 5GHz bands, and ranges up to 600 ft.
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 unied management system.

UniFi Controller
Packed with Features
Use the UniFi Controller to provision thousands
of UniFi APs, map out networks, quickly manage
system trafc, and provision additional UniFi APs.
Breakthrough RF Map
Use the RF map to monitor and analyze
radio frequencies for optimal AP placement,
conguration, and troubleshooting.
Detailed Analytics
Use the congurable 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 conguration, maps, statistics,
guest portal, and administrator read/write and
read-only accounts.
WLAN Groups
The UniFi Controller can manage exible
congurations of large deployments. Create multiple
WLAN groups and assign them to an AP’sradio.
RF Map
Monitor UniFi APs and analyze the surrounding RF environment.
Statistics
UniFi organizes and visualizes network trafc in clear and
easy-to-read graphs.

Increase Capacity and Throughput
Innovative Multi-Lane RF Technology
Wireless client devices in high-density areas experience
signicant 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 closeproximity.
Generic Filter versus Proprietary Filter of UniFi AP-Outdoor+

dBm
Typical AP Performance
Although theoretically channels 1, 6, and 11 of the 2.4GHz
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 specically eliminates all non-channel6
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.
