Enterprise-Grade Security for Small Networks
The UXG-Lite delivers next-generation security features typically found in enterprise-class equipment. The application-aware firewall provides intelligent traffic filtering based on application type, while signature-based IPS/IDS threat detection actively monitors and prevents network intrusions. Additional features include content filtering, country and domain-based blocking, ad blocking, and VLAN/subnet-based traffic segmentation for enhanced network control and isolation.
Powerful Routing & Quality of Service
Optimise your network performance with WiFi QoS for UniFi APs, application-based QoS, and device type identification. The UXG-Lite supports LTE Backup failover for continuous connectivity, along with internet quality and outage reporting. Advanced networking capabilities include license-free SD-WAN deployment, making it an excellent choice for distributed or multi-site networks.
Seamless UniFi Ecosystem Integration
Managed via the UniFi Network application version 8.0.7 and later, the UXG-Lite integrates seamlessly with CloudKey, Official UniFi Hosting, or a UniFi Network Server. This allows for centralised management of your entire UniFi ecosystem, including switches, access points, cameras, and door access systems. The intuitive interface provides real-time monitoring, traffic analytics, and easy configuration of advanced features.
