Hello,

I hope you are all well. I have decided, today, that I am done with SOHO equipment and would like to move to Enterprise grade hardware. I was looking at Ubiquity as the line of choice but I am in need of some guidance as to what I need to purchase. I am also unsure of how to configure these and would prefer to use a GUI of some sort for the device. I did see in the manual that such a feature existed. I also am unsure of what my needs would be for POE. Any advice or guidance would be appreciated as I am venturing into uncharted territory.

I am looking at the following devices:

Ubiquiti Networks UAP-AC-PRO-E Access Point

UBIQUITI NETWORKS USG

I would also need a small four port switch and I am also not sure how to connect to it to configure it. I see the CLI port, and am not sure what I need for that. I also believe I would need a POE injector for the wireless access point.

I thank you for your help as I am new to this arena.

have you read any of the the tutorials, guides, and reviews on this site ?
start there.
I will be honest and tell you I have spent most of my time on the site in the Asus merlin section. Could you point me in the right direction? I'd appreciate the guidance.

Thank you,

J
