Here are five UniFi products you need to upgrade your network to the most comprehensive UniFi solution. Whether you’re running a smaller-scale business or a large enterprise, Ubiquiti has the solution to keep your data safe and keep your network running smoothly.

Ubiquiti UniFi - Express

The UniFi Express is a compact yet powerful device that serves as both a UniFi Cloud Gateway and a Wi-Fi 6 Access Point, making it a versatile addition to any network setup.

With its built-in Wi-Fi 6 AP, it covers up to 140 square meters with seamless connectivity for 50 or more devices. The UniFi Express provides the user with key network information on the devices’ LCM display. It is designed with home users in mind and is the easiest way to deploy a full UniFi network stack on a single device.

If further expansion is required, it can manage up to 4 additional UniFi network devices and up to 60 clients. Unlike the other gateway consoles, it also features a mesh mode which allows you to use this device as a mesh access point on an existing UniFi network. If you outgrow this console and have to upgrade, it can be easily repurposed inside your network as a mesh access point.

Key Features:

(1) GbE RJ45 WAN port and (1) GbE RJ45 LAN port for network extension
Manages up to four additional UniFi Network devices
Managed with UniFi Network 8.0.7 and later

Ubiquiti UniFi - Gateway Lite

The Ubiquiti UniFi - Gateway Lite offers a significant performance boost over its predecessor, the UGS model. The UB-UXG-LITE provides 10 times the routing performance. Perfect for small to medium-sized networks, it comes equipped with essential features for advanced routing and security.

Like the UX, it features a dual-core CPU and 1 GB of RAM with a single Gigabit WAN and LAN but no LCM display. Unlike the UX, the processor isn’t bogged down by additional software and Wi-Fi, therefore offering better gateway performance. This model supports IPS/IDS and will deliver near-gigabit throughput with the latter feature enabled.

Powered by a 5V/3A USB-C adapter, it's energy-efficient and can be kept running by a USB-compatible UPS or power bank during outages. It is a powerful small form-factor gateway designed for smaller networks and a worthy successor to the old UniFi Security Gateway (USG).

Key Features:

Managed with Cloud Key, Official UniFi Hosting, or UniFi Network Server
1x GbE WAN port and 1x GbE LAN port
Compact design and USB-C powered
