Ubiquiti Unifi Dream Machine Special Edition

Product Information

However, it's also the least secure. It's better than no VPN at all, and it does its purpose of making a remote device part of a local network. On the other hand, the AmpliFi family, represented by the HD Wi-Fi system or the Alien, is for the home environment. They are simple Wi-Fi routers, easy to use but with a limited feature set.

As a network controller, the UDM-SE has everything the UDR has and much more. You can run multiple applications with the UDM-SE, of which the Network app is the default.

Professional 48 PoE

Power method (1) Universal AC input, 100-240VAC, 4.4A Max, 50/60 Hz(1) USP-RPS DC input, 52VDC, 3.94A I have to think though that if you have a connection that fast your needs are probably going to be pushing what the software supports, that said a 2.5Gbe port does make sense even if it won't be needed that often - yet. Integrated 128 GB SSD The UDM-SE features PoE (802.3af) and PoE+ (802.3at). It doesn't support the latest PoE++ (802.3bt), required by some latest Multi-Gig access points. But there's no point in supporting PoE++ when the ports themselves are Gigabit. This is great for small deployments where you might have limited access points and camera's and you don't need a second switch. The price

I actually believe this drive is intended to allow the UDM SE to be used in larger deployments that might have problems due to the internal eMMC and it's smaller capacity. Larger deployments would have the need to store more information such as Network events, logs around user access, voice mail or recorded messages etc. Besides the built-in Wi-Fi, the Dream Wall is practically the UDM-SE with a wall-mounting design and a larger touchscreen. UID (UniFi Identity): A premium feature for enterprises that allows single sign-on across multiple hardware platforms and applications.For new deployments however it's a harder choice both are great products this really comes down to how is it going to be used and is it worth the extra money? Some controllers can run more applications simultaneously and allow each application to handle more hardware units than others.

The faster WAN port is nice but for me on the Sunny Isle of Man this isn't a selling point since very little gets that fast and we can just want to move right along. Powered by UniFi OS, the UDM SE gives you full control of all your UniFi devices, including access points, Protect cameras, Talk phones, and Access readers. It's also a future-proof console since it will be able to run all upcoming UniFi OS applications. Calling out the specifics between the three – the UDM is a more self contained solution which is why it includes inbuilt Wi-Fi, but will also happily manage downstream devices. Regarding Internet speeds, in my anecdotal real-world experience, the UDM-SE generally delivered the sustained broadband speed of around 6.5Gbp out of a 10Gbps Fiber-optic line -- as shown in the screenshot above.One benefit I hope it has is that it can trigger a graceful shutdown of the UDM-SE if it detects the battery is about to die which I wasn’t sure how to do with the cheaper setup. I’ll have to research what it does but if you can confirm that would be great as well. P.S. I’ll be sure to use your link as always since you are providing so much advice, it should be worth your while PoE ports are great for UniFi Protect camera and some of Access points; however, certain access points and switches require higher than regular PoE power supply e.g. U6-LR, U6-Pro, UAP-AC-HD etc. So if you plan to use these access points and still needing those level of PoE supply, you will need separate switch unit. At which point, PoE Ports on UDM Pro SE may no longer be relevant. All UniFi Gateways, Cloud Gateways, and UniFi OS Consoles, as of November 2023. See my UniFi Router Comparison for more details. For clarity I've separated them into categories based on their role. Are you looking for the ultimate home networking solution?
