All pulled from a working environment. Have original boxes for everything.

 

1 x Unifi CloudKey G2+ - $290

 

1 x Unifi USG Pro 4 - $350

 

1 x Ubiquiti UniFiSwitch 24 Port Gigabit 500W Managed PoE Switch US-24-500W - $750

 

$1200 for all items. Prefer to sell as a package if there's no interest by the end of the month, can look at separating. 

 

Pickup from Gulf Harbour after hours or Auckland CBD (during business hours). Can ship at buyers expense.

Hi, I could be interested in the USG Pro, but have some questions:

How loud is it? I see that sometimes people replace fans.  I would be running this at home
Do you know if its still being updated by Ubiquiti?
If I want to implement VLAN's I can do this on the USG Pro? Or do I need a Unifi Switch as well?

Cheers!

Hey Tim,

 

Yes, the USG Pro's are being updated by Ubiquiti regularly. The last release for the Pro was just before Christmas.

 

Regarding noise, there is a reason a lot of people switch the fans out on gear from Ubiquiti. For some reason they use fans which emit a frequency under load that can pierce through an internal wall or door in a home quite easily. I'm sure the stock fans are performant and reliable, so it makes sense for enterprise with server rooms, but for home use, the frequency being emitted by these fans is detectable. A lot of people open these up and change them to Noctuas fans, and not only do they run quieter but they run slightly cooler, too.

 

This gear is all from a server room so it's like new, and hasn't been modified at all.

Thanks! I am leaning more towards a USG Pro 4 as I just don't think I would get the benefits of a UDM Pro (my other option).  I am keen, I have just posted a new thread on geekzone asking for advice on this choice.  I will PM you as well.

Hey team, just an update.

 

USG Pro has been sold, so the package is no longer available.

 

Open to offers via DM on the Switch or CloudKey, or can look at doing a deal for both.

 

Cheers
