Ubiquiti UAP-AC-IW Unifi AP-AC-IW IN WALL Access Point - (Enterprise Computing > Wireless Networking)

I recently ordered one of these devices for use at home: - Neat design, doesn't quite match other UK wall devices (ie it's a different shape to a typical wall socket) but this is only a minor thing - single LED indicator on the front which indicates status (same as other Unifi devices) - ethernet in MUST be from the back of the device; there are 2x ports on the bottom of the device but these cannot be used as an input - I didn't appreciate this didn't come with a PoE plug - so you either need to buy one or use a switch that provides PoE. I already have an existing Unifi Access Point (AP) at home. Initially I used this via my standard Netgear non-PoE switch: - software detected the new AP immediately, I then acquired and it automatically picked up the same SSID as my other AP and voila, it was working! (Yes, as easy as that!) - when using the Unifi software, you can get a nice view of the status of the various Unifi devices. I then changed the network switch to a Unifi PoE 16 port switch: - this removed the need for a PoE plug - the software then picked up the switch so I now have detailed stats of the network status and traffic going through it - moving from room to room in the house (ie transition from one AP to the other) was seamless - I haven't tested thoroughly but for the purposes of websurfing it was fine. For reference I'm using a BT Homehub 6. Overall I was really pleased with the result, this was really easy to install. The only outstanding item from my side is to mount this on a wall (which will mean chisling out a part of the wall to make it fit properly). And the next step is to build out the Unifi footprint by adding the security gateway. Note there are also additional features I haven't explored yet (e.g. testing signal strength, checking for wireless conflicts (this device can run tests like that). Overall highly recommended.

The Ubiquiti UAP-AC-In Wall Access Point is easy to install to an existing Ethernet point in a standard box (or run a new cable). It has proved very reliable (domestic, large building set-up). Moved to this model for wireless AP's as it provided gigabit connection to the (Netgear) poe switch. Have now bought three. Can be mounted vetically or horizontally. Slightly more expensive than others but excellent build quality. Needed to download (free) software for best functionality. To fully utilise this device it would be necessary to move to the Ubiquiti eco-system (e.g. Ubiquiti switch, router etc.) but using without that gives good functionality and meets my requirements. Impressed enough to consider making the move to their eco system.

This is a lovely small and compact access point and is on the wall up high in the downstairs loo with the LED lights turned off so it is not so noticeable. It works great and provides a good overall wifi signal around the house. Location was decided as an easy drill through in to the garage where the Unifiy 16 port POE switch was to provide power and connectivity.

Quality of wifi, manageability, and sheer utility of this device is superb. Its only flaw is that although they included a faceplate which fits UK cutouts, it requires an RJ45 plug at the back and that is extremely hard to fit if your backbox is cut into a masonry wall as many are in the UK. You may find a loose connection because you have had to squeeze hard on the plug. It also creates more work when retrofitting in place of an ethernet socket, because we have to terminate the cable into a plug. It would have been better if they had provided punchdown connectors so we could terminate the cable directly, saving both space and time.

I stumbled across this in wall access point on Amazon. I'm not sure why I didn't previously know about it as I install access points as part of my business. I imediately brought it as it solved an issue i had in a room on the ground floor of my house. I wanted to improve the Wi-Fi but didn't have access to the ceiling, what I did have was an Ethernet port behind the TV. I installed this access point and straight away I had fantastic Wi-Fi and as the plug had two ports on the underside I could still have my Smart TV wired in. The access point itself needs POE either through an injector or a POE switch but this wasn't a problem for me as I already had a POE switch. Some say it doesn't fit a UK back box. It does. It's just longer than the box but it's not a problem. The access point can be easily configure on the mobile app and settings changed so it matches your SSID. Since getting one at home I have been recommending to my customers and I expect to buy again.

Product description needs to be updated with. comes with bracket. Delivery came a day early. Packing could need to be a bit more better. Product all working and easy to add to an existing unfi account. Contact me if you want me to test your products.

If you use Ubiquiti kit then this is a very simple and unobtrusive POE AP having an extra couple of ports (one is POE). The smaller brother of a similar 4 port equivalent. Used in an office area with poor Wifi reception and simply replaced an existing ethernet wall socket. A couple of cautions; Just make sure you have sufficient cable in the wall as you need to put a ethernet plug onto the cable and remember this is not a domestic AP, but enterprise level stuff, so to get the use out of it you need Unifi controllers. I'm not sure if it will operate as a dumb AP.

The item didn’t work when I bought it so I returned it to them via post for a refund. They seem to have lost it and I am now told I won’t receive a refund and they won’t look for it in the warehouse either.

Fácil de configurar. Funciona de maravilla sin cortes ni cuelgues. Funcionalidades avanzadas por si las necesitas. Unifi no suele fallar

Premetto: non sono un tecnico esperto (per cui non fatemi domande complicate cui non saprei rispondere). Ecco cosa posso dire: Estetica: bello (ma è soggettivo). La luce blu è piuttosto forte. A qualcuno potrebbe dare fastidio la notte se fosse in camera. Nel mio caso è in corridoio e illumina il passaggio tanto da non dover accendere la luce. Installazione: avvitata sopra alla placchetta portafrutti a 3 posti della B-Ticino serie Living International. N.B. quel tipo di placchetta (a 3 posti) ha una distanza tale tra le viti che ho dovuto installare l'apparecchio in orizzontale. Cosa possibile, ma ricordate che su uno dei lati corti vi sono due prese RJ45 esterne, che si vedrebbero bene se la presa fosse in mezzo alla parete. Funzionamento: appena collegata al cablaggio, momento di panico... Non dava segni di vita. Finchè non si accende il POE (si attiva tre o quattro secondi dopo...). Questo è il secondo AP di casa. L'altro AP e lo switch sono tutti Ubiquiti Unifi. Si riconosono tra di loro perfettamente. Entrambi gli AP si attivano sulla stessa rete e quando passo da una zona all'altra della casa, il telefono o il PC si agganciano all'uno o all'altro AP senza momenti di buio. Eccellente.

Ich bin im besitz mehrerer UniFi produkte. Diese AC in-wall dient der erweiterung meines W-Lans. Was soll ich schreiben. Montage ist einfach. Wer eine Netzwerkdose hat, muss diese nur abnehmen, auf das Netzwerkkabel den RJ45-Stecker aufcrimmen, oder sich wie ich einen RJ45 Feldstecker kaufen. Der Lässt sich einfach montieren auf das CAT-7 Feldkabel. Im Anschluss den AC draufschrauben und fertig. Wer schon einen AC im UniFi Controller besitzt, wird nach 2min automatischer Einrichtung den neuen AC in Betrieb nehmen können. Der AC ist an der Wand sehr unauffällig und macht einen guten Job. Ich hatte noch die Pro Version ausprobiert, konnte aber keine Verbesserung feststellen. Und 80 EUR zu 180 EUR ist schon ein riesen unterschied. Die W-Lan reichweite ist in meinem Haus identisch gewesen. Deshalb habe ich diesen AC behalten und den Pro zurückgesendet. Eine Klar kaufempfehlung für die jeniegen, die mit den AVM Produkten nicht zurfieden sind. Endlich ein System, was einfach funktioniert und sehr gute W-LAN abdeckung hat.

Compact and unobtrusive. Wish I knew about it earlier.

Acheté pour améliorer le signal Wi-Fi chez moi (maison de 120m2), et c'était simplement ce produit qu'il me fallait! Ayant aussi le router et des switches Ubiquiti, le choix sur ce produit était facile a faire.
