Key Features
Compact indoor/outdoor WiFi 5 with 4 spatial streams
Four spatial streams split as 2 x 2 DL MU-MIMO on 5 GHz and 2 x 2 DL MU-MIMO on 2.4 GHz. Ubiquiti rates the maximum data rate at 867 Mbps on 5 GHz (BW80) and 300 Mbps on 2.4 GHz (BW40), with coverage of 140 m² (1,500 ft²) and 200+ connected devices per access point.
Weatherproof, with wall and pole mounting
The polycarbonate enclosure is IPX4 rated for outdoor-exposed use and works from -30 to 70° C (-22 to 158° F). Ubiquiti lists wall and pole mounting with mounts included, for poles of 1–3" (25–76 mm). Two RP-SMA connectors accept optional external antennas; Ubiquiti's UMA-D accessory, sold separately, gives directional coverage.
GbE uplink on 24V passive PoE
One GbE RJ45 port carries data and power. The AC Mesh supports passive 24V PoE (pairs 4, 5+; 7, 8 return) over a supported voltage range of 22–26V DC, with a maximum power consumption of 8.5W. Managed in UniFi Network version 6.0.45 and later, with wireless meshing, band steering and fast roaming.
