Description
The EP-R8 EdgePoint WISP Gigabit Router from Ubiquiti is designed to simplify your hardware by replacing the networking cabinet, which usually contains a patch panel, power rack, multiple PoE adapters, switch, router, modem, and more. It is encased in a die-cast aluminum alloy polycarbonate shell with UV resistance and features a combination of robust routing performance, fiber backhaul capability, and the convenience of passive PoE support. With the EP-R8, you'll have access to a total of eight ports: six 10/100/1000 RJ45 ports with 24V / 0.7A passive PoE, and two 10/100/1000 RJ45/SFP combo ports with 54V or 24V / 1.4A passive PoE. Furthermore, use the EdgePoint software, accessible via a network port and a web browser, to monitor and manage your network.

FiberProtect
The EdgePoint features FiberProtect to significantly reduce electrostatic discharge (ESD) failures and electromagnetic interference (EMI), greatly improve data signal integrity, and to consolidate the wired data backhaul to a single fiber cable run for long-distance connectivity.
WISP Control
Designed as a WISP control point, the EdgePoint combines the advanced routing capabilities of EdgeMAX with fiber backhaul and versatile powering capabilities.
All-in-One Design
A single compact controller eliminates clutter, expensive cabinets, extraneous installations, and excessive maintenance.
Advanced Routing Applications
Powerful routing features such as link balancing provide redundancy and increased performance for outdoor wireless links.
Versatile Power Options
Powered by 54 VDC or by PoE, the EP-R8 can support 54 or 24 V passive PoE to power all Ubiquiti products, including airFiber and airMAX.
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.
Routing Configuration
The 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
Command-Line Interface (CLI) Configuration
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
- CLI access through the following
- Serial console port
- SSH
- Telnet
- Graphical user interface
