Ubiquiti UAP-AC-PRO UniFi AC Pro WiFi 5 PoE Access Point
The Ubiquiti UAP-AC-PRO UniFi AC Pro WiFi 5 PoE Access Point is a ceiling-mounted dual-band wireless access point built for large offices and high-density environments. It supports up to 250+ simultaneous clients across a 140 m² coverage area using six spatial streams and 3×3 MU-MIMO on both bands. Managed through Ubiquiti's UniFi software, it suits IT teams who need centralised control over enterprise-grade wireless infrastructure.
Why this product
Dual-band 3×3 MU-MIMO on both radios
Both the 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz radios run 3×3 DL MU-MIMO, delivering up to 1.3 Gbps on 5 GHz and 450 Mbps on 2.4 GHz simultaneously to multiple clients.
Handles 250+ clients at once
Rated for more than 250 concurrent client connections, making it well-suited to busy offices, classrooms, or open-plan workspaces.
Powered over Ethernet — no separate power run
It accepts Passive PoE (48V) and is compatible with 802.3af/802.3at standards across a supported voltage range of 44–57 VDC. A 48V PoE Gigabit Adapter is included with single-unit purchases.
Gigabit uplink keeps the backhaul fast
Two 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports provide a full-speed wired backhaul so the wireless throughput is not bottlenecked by the uplink.
Flexible ceiling or wall mounting
Designed for ceiling installation by default, it also supports wall mounting with an optional Pro Mount accessory, giving installers flexibility in coverage placement.
Enterprise security and traffic management
Supports WPA/WPA2 with TKIP/AES, 802.1Q VLAN tagging, guest traffic isolation, per-user rate limiting, and WMM QoS priority queues.

- SKUUBI-1215
- EAN810354023514
- Compatible with 802.3af and 802.3at PoE switches (44–57 VDC supported range).
- Works with 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac client devices — backward-compatible across all those Wi-Fi generations.
- Ceiling or wall mounting supported; wall installation requires a Pro Mount accessory (sold separately).
- Carries CE, FCC, and IC certifications, covering use in Europe, the United States, and Canada.
- The included 48V PoE Gigabit Adapter is only bundled with single-unit purchases — multi-unit packs may not include one per unit; verify before ordering.
- Not a standalone router or switch — it requires a UniFi controller (hardware or software) for configuration and management.
Best for
- Large open-plan offices needing reliable coverage across up to 140 m² per access point.
- High-density deployments where more than 250 clients may associate to a single AP at peak times.
- IT teams managing multiple sites who already use or plan to use the UniFi ecosystem for centralised network control.
- Installers with existing PoE infrastructure — 802.3af/at switch ports or injectors are all that is needed to power the unit without separate cabling.
- Environments needing VLAN segmentation and guest isolation, such as hotels, co-working spaces, or schools.
Trade-offs
- Home users wanting a plug-and-play router — it requires a separate UniFi controller to configure and has no built-in routing or switching.
- WiFi 6 or WiFi 6E use cases — it is a WiFi 5 (802.11ac) device and does not support the newer 802.11ax standard or 6 GHz band.
- Outdoor or harsh-environment installations — the operating range is –10 to 70 °C and humidity up to 95% non-condensing; no weatherproofing rating is stated for this model.
- Switches or injectors below 44 VDC — the supported PoE voltage range starts at 44 VDC and devices outside that range are not supported.
Ceiling-mounted WiFi 5 AP with 6 spatial streams designed for large offices.
Note. PoE power adapter included with single unit purchases.
