Product Description
The UniFi Cloud Gateway Fiber is a high-performance 10G network gateway that combines the capabilities of a router, PoE switch, and optional NVR storage into a compact desktop unit. It runs on the UniFi OS platform, allowing you to centrally manage your network, video surveillance (UniFi Protect), and other UniFi systems from a single interface. A powerful quad-core 2.2 GHz processor and 3 GB of RAM deliver routing performance comparable to enterprise rack-mounted solutions (equivalent to a UniFi Dream Machine Pro), enabling support for over 50 UniFi devices and 500 clients.
The Cloud Gateway Fiber features dual 10G WAN ports (1 × SFP+ and 1 × RJ45) to accommodate ultra-fast fiber and Ethernet internet connections with link aggregation or automatic failover support. Additionally, a dedicated 10G SFP+ LAN port provides a 10 Gbps uplink for your local network – perfect for connecting to a core switch or high-speed server. The built-in 4-port 2.5 GbE switch (including one PoE+ port with a 30 W budget) allows you to directly connect and power UniFi access points, IP cameras, or other devices. With an M.2 NVMe slot supporting up to a 2 TB SSD (optional), the UCG-Fiber can function as a video recorder (NVR) for UniFi Protect, storing camera footage locally. Advanced security features such as a next-generation firewall with IDS/IPS and VPN support ensure your network is fully protected while maintaining throughput up to 5 Gbps with threat management enabled.
Key Features
- Full UniFi OS integration: Built-in controller runs the complete UniFi application suite (Network, Protect, etc.), enabling unified management of your entire infrastructure from one device (supports 50+ UniFi devices and 500+ clients).
- 10G performance: Delivers up to 10 Gbps routing throughput (5 Gbps with IDS/IPS enabled) for lightning-fast network speeds, powered by a quad-core 2.2 GHz CPU and 3 GB RAM.
- Dual 10G WAN: Includes (1) 10G SFP+ and (1) 10G RJ45 port for two simultaneous WAN connections, supporting automatic failover and load balancing between internet links.
- Ultra-fast LAN connectivity: Provides a dedicated 10G SFP+ LAN uplink and an integrated 4 × 2.5 GbE switch (with 1 × PoE+ 30 W port) to directly connect and power access points, cameras, and other network devices.
- NVMe storage support: Features an M.2 slot for an NVMe SSD (up to 2 TB, optional) to store UniFi Protect video recordings locally, turning the gateway into a full-fledged NVR.
- Advanced security: Next-gen firewall with IDS/IPS, VPN support, and content/app filtering provides comprehensive protection against network threats.
- Intuitive management: A built-in LCM status display and the UniFi mobile app make it easy to monitor device and network status. The UniFi platform offers simple configuration of QoS, Internet connection quality monitoring, and automatic OTA firmware updates.

Usage and Compatibility
The UniFi Cloud Gateway Fiber is ideal for deployments that demand top-tier performance and reliability. It is an excellent choice for offices, small-to-medium businesses, and advanced home networks that utilize ultra-fast fiber or multi-gig internet connections. With dual 10G WAN ports, the gateway ensures uninterrupted connectivity – if the primary internet link fails, it will automatically switch over to the backup (failover), and it can leverage both links simultaneously to increase bandwidth (load balancing).
The UCG-Fiber seamlessly integrates into the UniFi ecosystem, meaning it can manage all of your Ubiquiti networking devices – from Wi-Fi 6/7 access points and aggregation switches to UniFi Protect cameras, UniFi Access door systems, and UniFi Talk VoIP phones. Its 10G SFP+ port supports standard fiber modules or DAC cables, giving you flexibility when connecting to other 10G equipment or uplinks (e.g., to an ISP fiber handoff or core switch). By installing an NVMe SSD, the Cloud Gateway Fiber can serve as a local NVR for UniFi Protect cameras, eliminating the need for a separate video recorder device. Additionally, the built-in PoE+ port can power a connected device like an access point or camera directly from the gateway, simplifying installations and reducing the number of required PoE injectors or switches.
Summary
The UniFi Cloud Gateway Fiber is a comprehensive all-in-one networking solution for demanding environments, combining 10G routing, switching, and security features in a sleek desktop form factor. By delivering top-notch performance, support for cutting-edge networking technologies (10G Ethernet, PoE+), and full integration with the UniFi ecosystem, this device is an investment in a stable, high-speed network that's ready for the future. Choosing the UCG-Fiber means equipping your network with enterprise-level performance and protection in a form factor suitable for any office or advanced home setup.
