10GbE Helps Remove the Wired Network Bottleneck

WiFi 7 can provide multi-gigabit wireless capacity, making the Ethernet uplink increasingly important.

Connecting a high-performance WiFi 7 access point through a 1GbE interface can create a bottleneck between the wireless and wired networks.

The U7-Pro-XG's 10GbE interface provides substantially more uplink capacity, making it particularly attractive for environments with:

• 10GbE network infrastructure
• Multi-gigabit PoE switches
• High-performance NAS systems
• Local servers
• High-speed Internet connections
• Large file transfers
• High-density wireless usage

Support for More Than 300 Connected Clients

The U7-Pro-XG is designed to support 300+ connected wireless clients, making it suitable for environments where large numbers of devices may be operating simultaneously.

Typical deployments include:

PoE+ Powered for Simple Installation

The U7-Pro-XG is powered using PoE+, allowing network connectivity and electrical power to be delivered over the same Ethernet cable.

This eliminates the need to install a separate power outlet beside the access point and simplifies ceiling or wall-mounted deployments.

The access point supports an input voltage range of 42.5–57V DC and has a maximum power consumption of approximately 22W.

Recommended PoE Injector – Ubiquiti UACC-PoE++-10G (AKA UACC-POE-PLUS-PLUS-10G)

Where the U7-Pro-XG is not being connected directly to a suitable PoE switch, the recommended injector is the:

Ubiquiti UACC-PoE++-10G – UniFi 10G PoE++ Adapter (60W)

This injector is particularly well matched to the U7-Pro-XG because it combines suitable PoE power with 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity.

Although the U7-Pro-XG itself only requires PoE+, using a conventional Gigabit PoE injector would limit the Ethernet connection to 1Gbps and prevent the access point from taking advantage of its 10GbE uplink.

The UACC-PoE++-10G therefore provides a suitable solution when:

• A 10GbE non-PoE switch is being used
• The available switch does not provide suitable PoE
• An individual access point requires injected power
• Full 10GbE Ethernet connectivity needs to be maintained

Alternatively, the U7-Pro-XG can be powered directly from a compatible PoE+ or higher-rated UniFi switch with a suitable multi-gigabit or 10GbE PoE port.

Managed with UniFi Network

The U7-Pro-XG is centrally configured and monitored using the UniFi Network application.

UniFi Network provides a unified interface for managing compatible:

• UniFi access points
• UniFi switches
• UniFi gateways
• VLANs
• Wireless networks
• Connected clients
• Guest networks
• Network security policies

Administrators can monitor wireless performance, connected devices, traffic, access point utilisation and other network information from a central interface.

This makes the U7-Pro-XG particularly attractive when deployed as part of a complete UniFi network.

Ceiling or Wall Mounting

The U7-Pro-XG features Ubiquiti's familiar circular access point design and can be installed on a ceiling or wall.

A Lite Mount is included.

Ceiling mounting generally provides the best wireless coverage in typical office and commercial environments by allowing the access point to distribute its signal across the surrounding area.

The low-profile enclosure measures just 32.5mm deep, helping the access point blend discreetly into modern commercial interiors.
