The U7-Pro-XG (U7 Pro XG) is a ceiling-mounted tri-band WiFi 7 access point combining 6 GHz support, EHT 320 MHz channel bandwidth, and a 10 GbE uplink in an exceptionally slim and elegant form factor measuring ⌀206 × 32.5 mm (⌀8.1 × 1.3") and weighing 750 g (1.7 lb). The UV-stabilised polycarbonate and aluminium alloy enclosure with a lite mount in stainless steel (SUS304) and galvanised steel (SGCC) included enables secure ceiling and wall installation across enterprise offices, campuses, and large venues throughout East Africa. The white/blue system LED delivers a clean, professional finish. Management via Ethernet. Requires UniFi Network version 9.0.114 and later (White) or 9.1.120 and later (Black). ETA: 14 April 2026 — available for pre-order now.
The U7-Pro-XG delivers tri-band WiFi 7 (802.11be) with 6 spatial streams across 6 GHz with 2×2 DL/UL MU-MIMO reaching 5.8 Gbps (BW320), 5 GHz with 2×2 DL/UL MU-MIMO reaching 4.3 Gbps (BW240), and 2.4 GHz with 2×2 DL/UL MU-MIMO reaching 688 Mbps (BW40). The 6 GHz band with EHT 320 MHz channel support provides a clean, congestion-free spectrum exclusively for modern WiFi 7 clients — keeping legacy device traffic confined to 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz and preserving maximum throughput for next-generation devices. Antenna gain of 6 dBi on 6 GHz, 5 dBi on 5 GHz, and 4 dBi on 2.4 GHz with maximum TX power of 24 dBm on 6 GHz, 26 dBm on 5 GHz, and 23 dBm on 2.4 GHz delivers reliable tri-band coverage across 140 m² (1,500 ft²) for 300+ simultaneously connected devices. Supported data rates span 7.3 Mbps to 5.8 Gbps on 802.11be WiFi 7 on 6 GHz (MCS0–MCS13 NSS1/2, EHT 20/40/80/160/320), 7.3 Mbps to 4.3 Gbps on 802.11be WiFi 7 on 5 GHz (MCS0–MCS13 NSS1/2/3/4, EHT 20/40/80/160/240), 7.3 Mbps to 2.4 Gbps on 802.11ax WiFi 6 (MCS0–MCS11 NSS1/2, HE 20/40/80/160), 6.5 Mbps to 1.7 Gbps on 802.11ac WiFi 5 (MCS0–MCS9 NSS1/2, VHT 20/40/80/160), and 6.5 Mbps to 300 Mbps on 802.11n (MCS0–MCS15, HT 20/40) — ensuring full backward compatibility with all client devices across East African networks. Channel bandwidth supports HT 20/40, VHT 20/40/80/160, HE 20/40/80/160, and EHT 20/40/80/160/240/320 MHz. Up to 8 BSSIDs per radio.
Wired connectivity is provided via (1) 10 GbE RJ45 uplink port supporting 10/5/2.5/1 GbE powered by PoE+ (42.5–57V DC) at a maximum of 22W — requiring a PoE+ capable switch port or injector. The 10 GbE uplink ensures the backhaul connection never limits tri-band WiFi 7 throughput, making the U7-Pro-XG a fully future-proof investment for East African enterprise networks upgrading to 10G switching infrastructure. Advanced wireless features include wireless meshing, 802.11r fast roaming, 802.11k Radio Resource Management (RRM), 802.11v BSS Transition Management, band steering, advanced radio management, and Passpoint (Hotspot 2.0) for seamless client roaming across large enterprise deployments. Captive hotspot portal capabilities include custom branding landing pages, voucher authentication, payment-based authentication, external portal server support, and password authentication — essential for conference centres, hotels, hospitals, and large public WiFi deployments across East Africa. Additional features include guest network isolation, Private Pre-Shared Key (PPSK), WiFi speed limiting, client device isolation, WiFi schedules, RADIUS over TLS (RadSec), and dynamic RADIUS-assigned VLAN.
Maximum power consumption is 22W via PoE+ input (42.5–57V DC). Operating frequencies cover 2400–2483.5 MHz, 5150–5850 MHz, and 5925–7125 MHz worldwide — including full 6 GHz U-NII-5 through U-NII-8 band support, fully compliant with East African regulatory environments where 6 GHz spectrum is approved. Operating temperature -30°C to 40°C (-22°F to 104°F) with 5–95% non-condensing humidity suits the full range of indoor East African environments. CE, FCC, IC, and Anatel certified, fully NDAA compliant.
Ideal for enterprise offices, conference centres, healthcare facilities, education campuses, hotels, high-density deployments, and any large indoor environment across Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, and the wider East and Central Africa region requiring WiFi 7 tri-band performance with 6 spatial streams, 5.8 Gbps on 6 GHz with EHT 320 MHz channels, 4.3 Gbps on 5 GHz with EHT 240 MHz channels, 6 GHz interference-free connectivity, a future-proof 10 GbE uplink, and full UniFi Network management in a slim, premium ceiling-mount access point arriving 14 April 2026.
