Unifi is driven by the average cost-benefit philosophy. So, create an additional cost that will benefit 1% of customers may makes no sense. Ubiquiti is great but not a monopoly, there are market for all, and try to please everyone is a path to failure. Maybe you are the 1% that Ubiquiti doesn't attend, and it's ok.
@@michael-jackson-helsinki Then buy a higher standard AP to your home and work and install Ubiquiti to your clients that are simple consumers, for who a multi-gigabit port is an unnecessary cost.
Jack, Great Video....loved the opening effects...cool stuff! In the virgina house basement do you think using a mesh AP would have given the same performance as the AC pro, leaving the hardwire ethernet open for direct connection?
Sadly no, that wouldn't work at all. That house has such thick walls that I couldn't pick up a wifi signal from the access point in the room right above the basement.
Thanks for video almost thoughtlessly buy two of this for concrete/brick wall localization, fortunately in my country can return it with no cost since cheaper AC from Ubiquity do same job.
I wonder if the RGB delete may have been due to supply chain issues? I also wonder if they will release a U6 HD that might include one or maybe two 2.5 Gbps ports. I have found UI’s switches and APs to be stable and a great price point. But I have seen them working on so many other projects and products it seems they lose sight of their core product and competency. It may well be their downfall if they are not careful. There are a few other products that are nipping at their heals. Great video on a product I hadn’t seen as of yet. I too thought you may want to work on the lighting as it made your lips very red. But I was more interested in your opinion of the product than about your lips. Your hair could have been lime green for all i care. Keep the good and interesting videos coming!
@@chrisrjrose XG is more appropriate name because XG is feature inside the AC generation, it's an AC-PRO with an additional modem. HD is entire new family.
Hi I have two AP one on each floor But now looks like I have 3 separate networks How can I make this look like one network so as I walk around the house it connects to the strangest signal? Thanks your help
Absolutely not criticizing, and maybe your reply will be "good old availability issue", but for the sake of the use case that you have with only one cable but in need of an IP+TV components, this would actually be THE USE CASE of an In-Wall HD with its internal 4 Jacks in addition to being an AP that can be mounted completely hidden to the wall outlet. Not to mention the U6 In-Wall was just release to GA yesterday for you North American guys (Europe is still waiting).
Did u think about them removing the 2 ports on the u6 pro with the new inwall as that has multiple ports and they thought the 2 on the uap ac pro where under used
The second port is for sure a overrated feature, but also maybe the internal board simply don't have space to a new keystone, new lines and new controller.
I'm fine with it not having 2.5, i never manage to pass 50mg/s with my U6LR unless i go with a 160 band, which has way to much interference, so for me its not an issue.
The desire for 2.5g ports on AP's still a placebo right now and people chasing numbers. What use-case demands that multiple wireless devices need 500mb to the device? Steaming 4K???Nope...Zoom call?....Nope. As we move to 6E we'll need more AP' density to get that magic top performance number because of range limits of 6ghz. Do agree that dropping the second port is a step backwards that limits its use cases -- your example is a good one. Dropping the RGB is an odd one -- yes a little gimmicky but gives them a little flair. Don't see it as a cost item -- have to be talking about pennies in COGS difference.
Ummmm I go through that literally every day at work which is why I use the TP Link 660HD. Doing massive file transfers / editing on a laptop with files on a storage server so everything is consolidated with me and my employees.
@@MillerTechnicalServices If that's your workflow using WiFi to do that then cool. Feels more like a corner case for your environment, again totally cool. For my taste something where every second counts -- then it's hardware.
I get that and my use case is definitely on the edge. Same with my server needs. Most businesses deploying servers are using them for virtualization, backup, active directory… where 20TB may be plenty. All I need is copious amounts of storage 😂 gotta love video production!
I stopped your video after hearing that there is still no 2.5Gbit of Uplink. My Asus AX11000 gets 955Mbit in download without problems on an iPad. Not your mistake but ubiquity ... so pro … ? Nope.
I think Ubiquiti wants to kill off passive PoE. Their latest generation of cameras and switches don't support it. And I believe most network admins feel the same way. Standards-based af/at/bt is so much more interoperable and more power efficient. It does cost more in hardware capitol.

Wow, I really like the intro, I bet a lot of time went into it
Definitely not 7 hours in after effects fighting with masks and motion blur… Thank you!
@@MillerTechnicalServices lmao
Have you cracked it open and looked at the chipset to see if it actually supports 2.5 GbE but just isn't supported by the current firmware?
I may open mine up, but I don’t know what to look for lmao

@@diamondhoodgem Hey, so just wondering if you went ahead and opened up your U6 Pro? :)
I'm with you about the 2 ports... Very good point!
Which is best: the Pro, Enterprise, or LR? I can't decide which to get!!!!!!!!!!!!
this was quality. you phrased everything and tied it together well
I definitely agree with you and everything and every freaking company does this they take more crap away thinking it's better but it's like well we wanted to make it more easy for other people it's like no there should be an advanced user section and a non-evance user section as simple as that the more stuff it can do the more the more significant the product is in the more cooler it is and the more use cases and the lifespan lasts longer
Best video by far on the U6 line, just subbed! So, U6 Pro vs U6 LR, pros/cons? Would love to hear your analysis. Keep it up.
I love the Pro but the LR is also really good. I do prefer the low profile of the Pro in comparison to the LR.
We definitely need to start seeing some APs with 2.5Gb ports in the UI lineup.
Only at Wi-FI 6E APs. A 2.5 Gb/s port on a simple Wi-Fi 6 AP adds a cost that less than 1% of customers will need.
Hi I’m that “less than 1%” so are a number of my clients.

I hold on to buy Wifi 6 because of the secondary port.
Currently I'm using UAP‑AC‑HD with Link Aggregation.

Thanks for sharing 👍
Great video!
For chaining a device behind an access point the InWallHD might also be an option.
The Intro was great
Buen video estoy totalmente de acuerdo ojala escuchen los de Ubiquiti

All U6 line are already HD like. 802.11ax is better than 802.11ac wave2.
Maybe an XG makes sense.
@@ThiagoNunesRS Yes, to me it is mostly naming differences not anything substantial.
@@chrisrjrose XG is more appropriate name because XG is feature inside the AC generation, it's an AC-PRO with an additional modem. HD is entire new family.
Super cool intro
I agree 👍
The U6 LR has a 2.5Gbit network port. It's just artificially limited to 1 for whatever reason. So the U6 Pro probably also has a 2.5Gbit Port.
Nah it’s 1Gb port
Hi
I have two AP one on each floor
But now looks like I have 3 separate networks
How can I make this look like one network so as I walk around the house it connects to the strangest signal?

I have the same gripe about the lack of 2.5 port. I was really hoping to see that.
Wait for "U6 pro SE" 😁

The second port is for sure a overrated feature, but also maybe the internal board simply don't have space to a new keystone, new lines and new controller.
Still should be okay/great for the one that has a router/devices thats only support up to 1000Mbps, and have internet speed below 1000Mbps.
I'm fine with it not having 2.5, i never manage to pass 50mg/s with my U6LR unless i go with a 160 band, which has way to much interference, so for me its not an issue.
Is this device only powered by POE?
Yes
Yes you can use one of the $12 injectors though.
