Ubiquiti Networks UAP-AC-SHD-5 5-Pack access point

Five-pack UniFi AC SHD access points

This five-pack supplies ceiling-mountable and wall-mountable UniFi AC SHD units for multi-room deployments. Each unit is managed through the UniFi Network Controller for central configuration, monitoring and remote firmware upgrades. Integrated guest portal and hotspot features simplify visitor access. The pack suits installers and IT teams expanding coverage across a site.

Gigabit Ethernet backhaul and dual-band radio limits

Each access point connects via two Gigabit RJ-45 ports, capping wired throughput at 1 Gbit/s per link. The dual-band radio operates on 2.40 GHz and 5 GHz using the IEEE 802.11 ac standard with a maximum wireless transmission speed of 2.10 Gbit/s. Real-world throughput will be lower due to channel width, client capability and environmental interference.

Dedicated security radio for continuous scanning

The defining specification is the dedicated security radio that runs alongside the client-serving radios. It enables persistent spectrum scanning and threat detection without reducing client bandwidth. Buyers who do not need continuous security monitoring or who require a higher wireless standard should evaluate other models.
