Professional Performance for the Highest Demands: The UniFi AP AC Pro
The UniFi AP AC Pro is not just an Access Point – it's the heart of your powerful Network. With its 3x3 MIMO technology on both bands (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz), it is designed to reliably and quickly supply an extremely high density of end devices. Whether in a busy office, a restaurant, or a demanding smart home: this AP ensures stable connections with a theoretical total throughput of 1750 Mbit/s. Features like Band Steering intelligently direct your devices to the faster 5 GHz band, while advanced RF optimization ensures a clean and interference-free signal.
Boundless Coverage: Your WiFi for Indoor and Outdoor Areas
Why should your WiFi end at the front door? The weatherproof housing of the UAP-AC-PRO was specifically designed for flexible use. Mount it discreetly on the ceiling in the office or use its robustness for installation under a canopy, on the terrace, or in the workshop. With a range of up to 122 meters under optimal conditions, you effortlessly extend your coverage. This makes it the perfect UniFi Access Point for outdoor use and demanding indoor installations.
The UniFi Ecosystem: Full Control over Your Network
The true advantage of the UAP-AC-PRO lies in its integration into the UniFi ecosystem from Ubiquiti. Via the free UniFi Network Application, you manage not just this one, but hundreds of UniFi Access Points, IP Cameras, or a UniFi Switch through a single, central interface. Create separate guest networks with their own portal, analyze data traffic in real-time, and install firmware updates with just one click. This is enterprise management accessible to everyone.
Smart Installation: Power over Ethernet and Network Bridging
Forget unsightly power supplies and cable clutter. The UniFi AP AC Pro is conveniently powered via Power over Ethernet (PoE). It supports the common standards 802.3af PoE and 802.3at PoE+, so you can operate it with a compatible Ethernet Switch. A suitable Gigabit PoE Adapter is included for getting started. The second Gigabit Ethernet Port is a clever extra: use it to loop the network signal to another device like an IP Camera, without having to run an additional Ethernet Cable from your Ethernet Switch.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Do I need a UniFi Controller to use the AP AC Pro?
Yes, the UniFi Network Application is absolutely necessary for setup and configuration. While the UniFi Access Point can operate without a running controller after initial configuration, the controller must be active for features such as the guest portal or statistics collection. This is key for managing your Network effectively.
Is the UniFi AP AC Pro suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, the device is designed to be weatherproof for both indoor and outdoor use. However, it should ideally be mounted in a location protected from direct, severe weather, such as under a roof overhang. This ensures optimal performance for your WiFi Access Points.
What type of PoE Switch do I need for the UAP-AC-PRO?
You can use any Ethernet Switch that supports the 802.3af PoE or 802.3at PoE+ standard. Since the maximum power consumption is 9 watts, the 802.3af standard is generally sufficient. Consider a UniFi Switch for seamless integration.
Can I build a mesh network with the AP AC Pro?
Yes, the UniFi Access Point AC Pro supports the 'Wireless Uplink' function. This allows it to connect wirelessly to another wired UniFi Access Point to extend WiFi coverage without laying an Ethernet Cable, enhancing your overall Network.
How many devices can connect simultaneously to the AP AC Pro?
Ubiquiti states a theoretical capacity of over 250 clients. For optimal performance, a practical upper limit of approximately 125 to 200 active clients is recommended for this WiFi Router component.
Is the UniFi AP AC Pro a Router?
No, it is exclusively an Access Point. It provides the WiFi signal but requires a separate WiFi Router to manage IP addresses and establish the connection to the internet, integrating into your overall Network.
