What Do I Need To Run Ubiquiti Unifi Access?

[@BatsyGCS]

New to the Ubiquiti scene and trying to learn as much as possible. I really like the clean look and ease of use. Is there a cost for the software and/or a monthly or annual fee? Thanks for the great videos!

Thanks for the encouragement. There are no ongoing fees or cost for the software to manage Ubiquiti Unifi devices, it is all free.

Hello Team, Around 15:16 into the video you mentioned the UA-Viewer is compatible with G2 Pro Reader. Can you kindly show me this information is posted by Ubiquiti? I wanted to do the integration but could not find any information that state this was possible. Looking forward to your reply!

You can find this info at this page - eu.store.ui.com/eu/en/products/ua-intercom-viewer >>> Display that works with Intercom and G2 Reader Pro for visitor screening and remote access control. >>> or if you want to see it in action you can see it in a video we did recently towards the end - kzbin.info/www/bejne/roGmiqiNpdWLaNU I hope this helps

Hi Tech geeks team, just curious has there been a model update on the access hub as my access hub has 4 Poe outputs for 2 cameras and 2 access units. Also I have found that while the console will throw an alarm on providing poe+ not Poe++ the access control unit it will power and work with one pro access reader attached and doorstrike without issue consistently. I have also tested with 2x g5 domes and 2x access pro units and it will power all without issue, I have not however tested with the door strike proactively in-use and 4 devices powered off the hub.

That’s a good question. There’s not been a product update. The UA-Hub still has 3 ports and not 4. If you purchase any of the starter kits then they provide different hubs in those packs but you can’t currently buy them separately. On the PoE power you are correct. It is all about the watts available so in many cases 30w (PoE+) is more than enough if you don’t have anything heavy connected to it.

⁠@@The_Tech_Geeks Ah makes sense I have the Ubiquiti UniFi Access Gen 2 Pro Starter Kit which came with entry and exit units - thus 2 access control Poe ports and the 2 Poe ports for cameras. I enjoy your content, we made the shift to Ubiquiti as a first choice option for our clients recently and your video content has been handy 🙏
