Stability for High-Density Networks: The UniFi AC Pro
The Ubiquiti UAP-AC-PRO is not just a WiFi transmitter – it's the heart of a modern, high-performance Network. Designed for environments where many devices simultaneously require a reliable connection, such as offices, schools, or demanding Smart Homes. Thanks to advanced 3x3 MIMO technology on the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, it delivers impressive data throughput of up to 1750 Mbps. This means smooth 4K streaming, lag-free video conferencing, and fast downloads for all users, without compromise.
Thoughtful Installation: PoE+ and Weatherproof Enclosure
Forget complicated Cabling and searching for power outlets. The UniFi AC Pro is conveniently powered with electricity and data via Power over Ethernet (PoE+). A single Ethernet Cable from your UniFi Switch or the included PoE Injectors / Power Supplies is sufficient. The robust and weatherproof Enclosure also makes the Ubiquiti UAP-AC-PRO extremely versatile. Mount it discreetly on the ceiling in the office or use it in a sheltered outdoor area to provide your patio or garden with stable WiFi. The UniFi AC Pro Access Point is weatherproof, making it a flexible solution.
Full Control with the UniFi Controller
The true strength of the UniFi system lies in its central management. With the free UniFi Controller Software, you can configure and monitor not just one, but hundreds of UniFi Access Points at different locations – all from a single, intuitive interface. Create separate guest networks, analyze data traffic, optimize radio channels, and perform firmware updates with a few clicks. This powerful WiFi Access Point for many devices offers you enterprise-level scalability and control, whether you operate a small home Network or a large corporate Network.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the Ubiquiti UniFi Access Point AC Pro suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, the UAP-AC-PRO features a weather-resistant enclosure and is designed for outdoor deployment. However, it should be mounted in a sheltered location, such as under an overhang, to protect it from direct weather exposure. This high-performance WiFi Access Point ensures reliable Network connectivity across both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.
Do I need a UniFi Controller to use the UAP-AC-PRO?
Yes, the UniFi Controller software is essential for the initial configuration and ongoing management of the UniFi Access Point. While the AP can operate independently after setup, the controller is necessary for monitoring, updates, and advanced functions, making it a key component of the Ubiquiti Networks ecosystem for managing your WiFi Access Points.
What is the difference between the UAP-AC-PRO and the UAP-AC-LITE?
The main difference lies in performance. The UAP-AC-PRO is a 3x3 MIMO device, features two Gigabit Ethernet Switch ports, and supports 802.3af/at PoE Injectors / Power Supplies. The UAP-AC-LITE is a 2x2 MIMO device, has only one Ethernet port, and typically uses passive 24V PoE. Both are excellent WiFi Access Points for expanding your Network.
Can the UAP-AC-PRO replace an existing WiFi Router?
No. The UAP-AC-PRO is purely a WiFi Access Point, not a WiFi Router. It extends a Network with WiFi connectivity but cannot assign IP addresses (DHCP) or establish an internet connection. It must be connected to an existing router or an Ethernet Switch, using appropriate Cabling.
How is the Ubiquiti UniFi Access Point AC Pro powered?
Power is supplied exclusively via Power over Ethernet (PoE). It supports 802.3af PoE and 802.3at PoE+ standards. You can connect it to a compatible UniFi Switch or use the included Gigabit PoE Injectors / Power Supplies adapter. This ensures flexible deployment for your Network and simplifies Cabling.
Does the UAP-AC-PRO support 'Mesh' WiFi?
Yes, through the 'Wireless Uplink' feature, a UAP-AC-PRO can wirelessly connect to another wired UniFi Access Point to extend WiFi coverage in locations without an Ethernet network connection. This allows for flexible Network expansion using UniFi Access Points, creating a robust WiFi Network.
