Overview
- The Ubiquiti UXG-Fiber is a desktop 10G independent gateway designed for businesses seeking integrated routing, switching, and security in a compact form factor. It combines dual 10G WAN connectivity options—10G SFP+ and 10 GbE RJ45 ports—with an integrated 4-port 2.5 GbE switch featuring PoE+ support, making it ideal for organisations deploying UniFi infrastructure.
With 5 Gbps routing throughput and integrated IDS/IPS, the UXG-Fiber provides real-time threat detection and prevention without compromising network performance. It integrates seamlessly with UniFi management platforms, allowing centralised control via CloudKey, Official UniFi Hosting, or an on-premises UniFi Network Server.
The device is particularly suited to small and medium-sized office environments where space is limited but performance and security cannot be compromised. Its combination of 10G uplink capacity and integrated switching simplifies network design and reduces the need for separate hardware.

FAQs
What is the difference between the SFP+ and RJ45 WAN ports?
The UXG-Fiber provides flexibility in WAN connectivity. The 10G SFP+ port is ideal for fibre connections, whilst the 10 GbE RJ45 port supports direct copper connections. You can use one or both ports depending on your internet service provider and redundancy requirements.
Can the UXG-Fiber be managed standalone or does it require a CloudKey?
The UXG-Fiber can be managed via CloudKey, Official UniFi Hosting, or an on-premises UniFi Network Server. For cloud-based management without additional hardware, UniFi Hosting is an option. For self-hosted environments, a UniFi Network Server is required.
What is IDS/IPS and how does it protect my network?
IDS/IPS stands for Intrusion Detection System/Intrusion Prevention System. It monitors inbound and outbound traffic in real-time, identifying and blocking suspicious or malicious activity before it reaches your internal network, providing active threat prevention.
Is the integrated 4-port switch sufficient for my office network?
The integrated 4-port 2.5 GbE switch is suitable for connecting essential devices such as access points, switches, or servers directly to the gateway. For larger networks requiring more ports, you can cascade additional UniFi switches via the 10G SFP+ LAN port.
Does the UXG-Fiber support PoE power for connected devices?
Yes, one of the four integrated switch ports includes PoE+ support, allowing you to power compatible devices such as UniFi access points or IP cameras directly from the gateway, simplifying installation and cabling.
What is the maximum routing throughput of the UXG-Fiber?
The UXG-Fiber delivers 5 Gbps routing throughput with IDS/IPS enabled, providing a balance between performance and real-time threat detection. This throughput is suitable for most small to medium-sized business environments.
Can I use both the SFP+ and RJ45 WAN ports simultaneously for redundancy?
Yes, the dual WAN ports support redundancy configurations. You can configure failover or load balancing across both ports when managed through UniFi Network Server or UniFi Hosting, enhancing network reliability.
