Ubiquiti U6-Pro UniFi WiFi 6 Access Point Concurrent clients 350+ (US Version)

The U6-Pro is typically the better pick when you want higher peak throughput and strong performance in busy environments (it supports 160 MHz channels and has 6 spatial streams). The U6-LR is often chosen when you prioritize coverage/range and a “reach further” placement strategy. If your goal is faster local Wi-Fi and more capacity, choose U6-Pro; if your goal is maximum coverage with fewer APs, consider U6-LR.

Yes, the U6-Pro supports 160 MHz channel width. You don’t always need it: 160 MHz can increase peak speeds for compatible clients, but in congested areas it may be harder to use cleanly. A common best practice is to use 80 MHz in busy RF environments and only enable 160 MHz if your spectrum is clean and your clients benefit from it.

The U6-Pro is rated to support 300+ concurrent clients. Real-world capacity depends on what those clients are doing (video calls vs. idle devices), your channel plan, and upstream network limits—but it’s designed for high-density home and office usage.

The U6-Pro is powered via PoE and has a max power consumption around 13W, with a supported voltage range of 44–57V DC. Use a compatible PoE switch/injector.

Choose the U6-Pro if you want a proven Wi-Fi 6 AP with excellent performance/value and your client devices are mostly Wi-Fi 6/5 today. Choose the U7-Pro if you’re actively moving to Wi-Fi 7 clients and want the newest generation for extra headroom and future-proofing. For many networks, U6-Pro remains a top “sweet spot” unless you specifically need Wi-Fi 7 features now.
