If I were looking at the UniFi U7 APs, I'd look at either the U7 Pro XG or the XGS, as they both work well and run cooler without the need for a fan like the older U7 range.

My SFP Wizard has just shipped so it will arrive tomorrow. That's going to come in quite handy, especially for Intel NICs

I'll order one. There's no import tax right?

Do they have a store in the UK?

They are sold out now

Shame as I could do with one for work as just ended up ordering some compatible HP Aruba SFP+ modules as nowhere had stock of genuine

What the hell... Already?

It’s always the case with a Ubiquiti launch, low starting stock, sells out, wait 2-3 months for a restock.

 

[RSR]

I'll start bids at ...

I'm still waiting for Ubiquiti to release their 5G link modem!

Yes, I would like this a lot. I'm using an M6 Nighthawk at the moment for our home 5G connection

Can you reprogram non-Ubiquiti SFPs with their SFP Wizard?

 

[mogwai]

Is anyone else running a cloud gateway max? If so have you ever just had it crash to the point I had to turn the plug off at the wall and turn it back on to restart it? I am not sure what the cause was as all that shows in the logs is the wired devices disconnecting. It is not in an enclosed space or anything

SFP Wizard

Interested to see how useful this actually is, testing light levels is pretty straight forward on most switches which have the ability within the cli. I have a cisco sfp to ethernet which worked no problem at all in cgf, also tested an aruba 10gb dac which is working perfectly.

The point of the product is that you can flash Ubiquiti optics to pretend to be Cisco ones

Ah of course Cisco love be 'different'

Potentially yes. (Some testing has been done in the reddit link below)

Essentially you can read a config from an existing SFP and then write it to another (intended for Ubiquiti's but working for some others e.g. FS). Note there is no saving or loading of profiles - just a read from one and then write that image to others.

It's every switch vendor that operates in the enterprise space, in fairness. They all by default lock out SFPs that aren't their own certified ones.

I've got a UXG-Gateway Max that I have just upgraded from (to a Cloud Gateway Fiber).

The max was absolutely rock solid. Never had any issues - sorry.

I need a bigger rack.

 

[squerble]

I'm quite envious of people with the space to have racks. Especially when I look at North American houses my tiny new build barely has a single cupboard.

 

[DotA]

Get a mini rack?
Its what im looking at currently with some ubiquiti gear

I had a larger rack but we moved into a barn conversion cottage with low roofs and wooden beams so it had to go, hence the mini racks.
