Ubiquiti UniFi Protect G6 Instant | 4K, WLAN, AI, IPX5

Yes, your G6 Instant has an IPX5 weather resistance rating and IK04 vandal resistance, offering some protection against splashes and impacts. However, it is primarily designed for indoor use or sheltered outdoor areas (e.g., under an awning). For fully exposed outdoor applications requiring higher weather resistance, we recommend other UniFi camera models.

Your UniFi G6 Instant features a multi-TOPS AI engine that enables advanced detection functions. These include facial and license plate recognition (LPR), as well as intelligent detection of people, vehicles, and animals. These functions are integrated directly into your camera ("Edge AI").

Yes, for full functionality and management, your G6 Instant requires the UniFi Protect application suite, running on a UniFi Gateway with Protect functionality (e.g., UniFi Dream Machine Pro/Max, Cloud Gateway) or a dedicated UniFi Protect NVR.

Your camera is powered via USB-C with 5V DC and 2A. A suitable USB power adapter is included. Optionally, you can use a PoE-to-USB-C adapter (not included) to power your camera and provide data via Power over Ethernet (PoE), which disables Wi-Fi.

Yes, the UniFi Protect system is designed for a local, "off-cloud" architecture. Recordings and management are handled locally on your UniFi Protect console, which is privacy-friendly and does not require monthly license fees from you.

Yes, your G6 Instant represents a significant generational leap. It features an improved 1/1.8" 8MP sensor, delivering 4K resolution (3840x2160) at 30 FPS, whereas the G4 Instant offered 2K resolution. This results in significantly better image sharpness and improved low-light performance.
