Ubiquiti U7-Pro-XGS UniFi Tri-Band WiFi 7 Access Point 802.11be 15.1Gbps Wireless
The Ubiquiti U7-Pro-Max UniFi Tri-Band WiFi 7 Access Point is a ceiling-mounted AP with eight (8) spatial streams, 6 GHz support, and a dedicated spectral scanning engine for high density interference-free WiFi in demanding, large-scale environments.
Key Features
- WiFi 7 with 6 GHz support.
- Eight (8) spatial streams.
- Real-time spectral analysis for enhanced channel selection (requires UniFi Network 8.2.93 and later).
- 160 m² (1,750 ft²) coverage.
- Supports 500+ connected devices.
- Powered using PoE++.
- 10 GbE uplink port.
- Multi-Link Operation (MLO) capability (coming soon).
Some Ubiquiti U7-PRO-XGS Customer commonly asked questions answered below.
Does the U7 Pro XGS require PoE++?
Yes, the U7 Pro XGS requires PoE++ (802.3bt) for full operation, with a maximum power consumption of 29W. This is a significant consideration when compared to the U7 Pro Max, which uses PoE+ (802.3at).
What is the speed of the Ethernet uplink port?
It features a 10 GbE uplink port, which also supports 10/5/2.5/1 Gbps speeds.
Can I power it with PoE+?
The AP is designed for PoE++, but some users inquire if it can be powered by PoE+ (802.3at) and have reported that it may work with reduced performance (i.e., less power to the radio) or by enabling an "enhanced PoE+ compatibility" setting, though PoE++ is officially required.
Features and Comparison to U7 Pro Max
What is the main difference between the U7 Pro XGS and the U7 Pro Max?
The U7 Pro XGS has a 10 GbE uplink and a fanless design with a metal heatsink, plus a dedicated spectral scanning radio and Zero-Wait DFS capability.
The U7 Pro Max has a 2.5 GbE uplink, uses a fan for cooling, and lacks the dedicated spectral scanning radio and Zero-Wait DFS found on the XGS. Both are high-end Wi-Fi 7 APs with 8 spatial streams.
What does the 'S' in U7 Pro XGS stand for?
The 'S' stands for its dedicated spectral scanning radio (Real-Time Spectral Analysis), which helps it analyse the wireless environment for interference to optimize performance in crowded locations.
Is the U7 Pro XGS fanless?
Yes, a key design change in the XGS model is its fanless cooling system, utilizing a metal backplate as a heatsink, addressing concerns about the internal fan in the U7 Pro Max.
Does it support all Wi-Fi 7 features?
Yes, it is a Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) AP, supporting Tri-band (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz), Multi-Link Operation (MLO), and the wide 320 MHz channels on the 6 GHz band.
Performance and Deployment questions answered.
What is the maximum data rate?
The maximum aggregate data rate for the U7 Pro XGS is around 15,000 Mbps (15 Gbps), with top single-band rates of up to 8.6 Gbps on the 5 GHz band and 5.8 Gbps on the 6 GHz band.
What is the coverage area and maximum client count?
Ubiquiti lists a coverage area of approximately 160 m² (1,750 ft²) and a capacity for 500+ connected clients.
How does the range compare to other APs, especially through walls?
While high-performance, UniFi access points are generally designed for multi-AP deployments and are not optimized for long-range, through-wall performance like some consumer "gaming routers." The most effective deployment often involves multiple APs for complete coverage, especially for the short-range, high-speed 6 GHz band.
