Ubiquiti UniFi 6 Long-Range Access Point U6-LR

Product Information

While there is always something around the corner – such as Wi-Fi 6 products equipped with more than a single Gigabit Ethernet connection or Wi-Fi 6E devices offering enhanced deployment flexibility with ample 6 GHz spectrum – this should not take away from the excellence of the UniFi 6 Long Range Access Point. By being able to control transmit power and the minimum RSSI, it is possible to ensure that devices optimally operate to the best Access Point. Because of this flexibility, the UniFi system provides surprising cost-effective evolution for broadband users. Apart from just being plain annoying, signs like these could mean that your Wi-Fi signal has slowed down, and it's time to boost that Wi-Fi connection. This item comes without PoE injectors and must be bought seperately if you are not using them with a PoE Switch.

Even if it seems complicated, actually mounting the access point either on the wall or ceiling was surprisingly intuitive. The Wi-Fi 6 market has now taken a considerable step forward with the arrival of two Wi-Fi 6 Access Points from Ubiquiti.for the 5GHz, while the transmit power is 22dBm as opposed to the 26dBm of the U6-LR, the platform is also different but is that enough to make a noticeable difference between the two models? When deciding on how many access points you need, a good general rule is don’t expect 5 GHz coverage to extend further than 2 walls or 30 feet away. In my testing with a single 2x2 Wi-Fi 6 client at close range, performance didn’t change by a significant amount.

Wondering if you set the site location to US…if you select Eu countries you will not get the full Tx power. As an example, below is data collected for an Apple Macbook Air M1 (equipped with Wi-Fi 6 with 2×2 MIMO) operating to a UniFi 6 Long Range Access Point. Microless was established in 2011 to become the largest computer parts, gaming pc parts, and other IT related products e-commerce site in UAE and the GCC.To download a large file, a Wi-Fi device needs to take many short breaks to acknowledge that it’s accurately receiving data. Recently, we helped a neighbour configure a Wi-Fi router from Sky, and realised just how much more control you get with the UniFi system.

The current router/AP is a Orbi which I want to replace with a hard wired router/switch that will accept 5-6 wired devices (presently using 4) and add a Unifi 6 AP and am between the Lite and LR. The difference between your received signal and the noise floor is your signal-to-noise ratio, or SNR. Using 5 GHz at close range, the U6-Lite and U6-LR are faster than Wi-Fi 5 access points by around 10-20%. Next, I compared the U6-Lite and U6-LR with the AC-HD, UniFi Dream Machine, and the BeaconHD using a 2x2 Wi-Fi 6 client and iPerf TCP tests. The UniFi 6 Lite is the same size as the nanoHD, and can use the nanoHD covers and recessed mounting bracket.Previously, using UniFi Nano Wi-Fi 5 Access Points, we were able to consistently achieve throughputs of about 640 Mbps. Bolstering coverage and speeds by investing in multiple UniFi 6 Long Range Access Points will make a huge difference.
