UBIQUITI NETWORKS UAP-AC-PRO Ubiquiti UniFi IEEE 802.11ac 1.27 Gbit/s Wireless Access Point - 2.40 GHz, 5 GHz content_copy

The UBIQUITI NETWORKS Access Point UAP-AC-PRO is a professional wireless access point for enterprise networks, based on the Wi-Fi technology 802.11ac. It is designed for indoor and outdoor use and provides a powerful wireless network connection with Dual-Radio 3x3 MIMO technology. This technology enables simultaneous use of the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands, achieving higher data rates and improved network stability. The 3x3 MIMO technology uses three antennas per radio band to optimize signal quality and range. The access point is designed for delivering high-performance, low-latency WLAN networks in environments with high client density.

Applications

The UAP-AC-PRO is suitable for professional applications in offices, hotels, schools, hospitals, or industrial environments. It is particularly suited for environments requiring reliable, highly available, and scalable WLAN infrastructure. The combination of robust industrial design and outdoor support extends its application beyond indoor spaces. The 802.3ac-based Gigabit Ethernet interface ensures fast connection to the network backbone.

Features and Equipment in Detail

The access point supports the Wi-Fi standardization 802.11ac, which is an evolution of the 802.11n standard and enables higher data rates. The maximum theoretical speed per band is up to 1.300 Mbit/s, with the total data rate increased by combining both bands. The simultaneous dual-band 3x3 MIMO technology enables simultaneous use of both frequency bands, allowing for more efficient distribution of network load. Control is performed via the UniFi Controller v5 software, a free, software-based management platform that enables centralized network control. The software supports remote maintenance and updates of access points, increasing operational efficiency.

Technology Explained Simply

The MIMO technology (Multiple Input, Multiple Output) uses multiple antennas to transmit and receive multiple data streams simultaneously. In 3x3 MIMO, three antennas are integrated in both the transmitter and receiver, improving signal quality and range. The dual-band function allows use of both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, with the 5 GHz band offering less interference and higher speeds. The 802.3ac-based Gigabit Ethernet interface ensures fast network connection, with data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s. PoE support (Power over Ethernet) enables power supply via the network cable, making installation more flexible and reducing cable requirements.

Compatibility and Accessories

The UAP-AC-PRO is compatible with accessories such as the Ubiquiti Access Point Arm-Mount UACC-AP-AM, which enables wall mounting. Additionally, PoE injectors such as the Ubiquiti PoE Injector can be used to provide power over the network cable. The use of a Long-Range In- and Outdoor Ethernet Repeater can extend network range. The UniFi Controller software is suitable for managing multiple access points and enables centralized control.

Mounting and Installation

Installation is performed via the integrated Gigabit Ethernet interface and PoE support, allowing power supply over the network cable. Wall mounting is possible with the appropriate arm-mount. Configuration is done via the UniFi Controller software, accessible through a web browser. The software enables remote control and updates of the devices.

Operational Advantages

The UAP-AC-PRO offers high network availability and low latency, which is important for applications with high data traffic. Centralized management via the UniFi software enables efficient network control. PoE support reduces the need for additional power supplies and simplifies installation. The dual-band technology enables flexible use of frequency bands, minimizing interference. The scalability of the solution allows network expansion without changing the control infrastructure.
