The Ubiquiti UX7 UniFi Express 7 is a compact UniFi Cloud Gateway combining routing, security, network management, and integrated WiFi 7 in a desktop form factor. It provides a 10GbE RJ45 WAN interface, 2.5GbE LAN connectivity, and tri-radio 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz wireless networking.
Gateway and Network Connectivity
The UX7 provides one 10GbE RJ45 port supporting 10/5/2.5/1GbE and one 2.5GbE RJ45 port supporting 2.5/1GbE/100/10Mbps. It supports more than 30 managed UniFi devices and more than 300 simultaneous connected users.
WiFi 7
Integrated WiFi supports 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be, including WiFi 6, WiFi 6E, and WiFi 7. The three radios provide 2x2 MU-MIMO on 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz. Maximum specified wireless throughput is 688 Mbps on 2.4 GHz, 4.3 Gbps on 5 GHz, and 5.7 Gbps on 6 GHz.
Security and Routing
The UX7 provides stateful and application-aware Layer 7 firewall capabilities, DPI and traffic identification, zone-based firewall filtering, content filtering, VLAN/subnet traffic segmentation, and intrusion prevention/detection. Ubiquiti specifies up to 2.3 Gbps IDS/IPS throughput.
VPN and SD-WAN
Networking features include license-free SD-WAN, Site Magic site-to-site VPN, IPsec, OpenVPN, WireGuard, Teleport, policy-based WAN and VPN routing, and customizable DHCP services. OSPF, mDNS, advanced QoS, advanced NAT, and integrated RADIUS are also supported.
Hardware
The UX7 uses a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 processor running at 1.5 GHz and 3 GB of system memory. A 0.96-inch status display provides local device information, while Ethernet and Bluetooth are available for management and setup.
