Advanced Applications
For the EP-S16, layer-2 link aggregation provides similar redundancy and increased performance benefits.
Versatile Power Options
Powered by 54VDC or by PoE, the EP-R8 and EP-S16 can support 54 or 24V passive PoE to power all Ubiquiti products, including airFiber and airMAX.
Features:
Breakthrough in Tower Deployment
The EdgePoint features FiberProtect to significantly reduce electrostatic discharge (ESD) failures and electromagnetic interference (EMI), greatly improve data signal integrity, and consolidate the wired data backhaul to a single fiber cable run for long-distance connectivity.
Example of a Backhaul Deployment for the EdgePoint
The EdgePoint runs fiber to the top of the tower so no cabinet is needed and there are no long Ethernet cable runs.
All-in-One Design
A single, compact controller eliminates clutter, expensive cabinets, extraneous installations, and excessive maintenance.
Example of EdgePoint as WISP Control Point
The EdgePoint replaces a cabinet containing a patch panel, power rack, multiple PoE adapters, syslog server, AP (for EdgePoint management), switch, router, and modem.
Advanced Routing Applications
Powerful routing features – such as link balancing – provide redundancy and increased performance for outdoor wireless links.

Intuitive User Interface
The EdgePoint features a graphical user interface designed for convenient setup and control. Accessed via a network port and web browser, the user-friendly interface provides intuitive management with a virtual view of the ports, displaying physical connectivity, speed, and status.
Depending on whether you are configuring a router (EP-R6 or EP-R8) or switch (EP-S16), the configuration interface will differ.
Routing Configuration
The EP-R6 or EP-R8 offers robust features, including:
- VLAN interfaces for network segmentation
- Static routes and support of routing protocols: OSPF, RIP, and BGP
- Firewall policies and NAT rules
- Application identification with Deep Packet Inspection (DPI)
- DHCP services
- Quality of Service (QoS)
- Network administration and monitoring tools
- Administrator and operator accounts
- Comprehensive IPv6 support
Switching Configuration
The EP-S16 provides advanced features, including:
- MSTP/RSTP/STP
- VLAN, Private VLAN, Voice VLAN
- Link Aggregation
- DHCP Snooping, IGMP Snooping
- TACACS+, RADIUS, 802.1X, MAC Filtering, ACL
- DiffServ, CoS
- Static Routing, Policy-Based Routing
Configuration by CLI
The CLI provides quick and flexible configuration by command line and features the following:
- For power users, configuration and monitoring of all advanced features
- Direct access to standard Linux tools and shell commands (EP-R6 or EP-R8 only)
- CLI access through the following:
- Serial console port (EP-R8 or EP-S16 only)
- SSH
- Telnet
- Graphical user interface (EP-R6 or EP-R8 only)
For the EP-R8, the Dashboard screen displays detailed statistics: IP information, MTU, transmit and receive speeds, and status for each interface.
For the EP-R8, the Routing > Routes screen displays static, connected, RIP, and/or OSFP routes. You can add static routes on this screen.
An industry-standard command-line interface (CLI) is available for advanced users.
