And frankly, there's just not a lot of options if you want a router that can actually take advantage of those things. And maybe not just take advantage of it on a router level with one 1 Gbit port, but take advantage of it for all your devices. Pass that 10 GB, 5 GB, however faster than 1 GB internet you have to the rest of your network. And this new product from Ubiquiti, the Cloud Gateway Fiber is supposed to do just that. And you'll see what I mean in a second. A little bit bigger. This is the big brother to their Cloud Gateway Max. Kind of looks like you took two Cloud Gateway Maxes and glued them together. Maybe like 1.8 eight of them. We've also got a power brick. This thing doesn't use USBC. That's interesting. It's just a DC barrel jack, but it does Oh, boy. This is a 54 volt 1.1 amp power brick. So, that's around 60 watts max. And it just uses a normal barrel jack. Now, how long is this cable? I'm jumping the gun a little bit. We've got the Oh, see, there's an AC power cable. I like this a lot. See, some companies give you a power brick like this, and it's got the prongs on it, and you go right into the wall, which sucks if you have applications that don't support that very well, and also doesn't make it very uh international friendly. This one, on the other hand, uses a C5 cable and a C6 socket to allow you to Well, I mean, with this little cable, this looks like a little two-footer. Might be a little bit longer than that. Let's just measure it. So, we've got a twoft AC to C5 cable. And then we've got our C6 power brick with another 5T on there. That gives you around 7 ft of power cable, which is a fair bit. And if you for whatever reason, we're using this in like a server rack or something, which as you'll see in a minute here, you totally could. You could get a different cable and hook right up to your PDU or if you were in Europe or whatever. Yeah, easy peasy. We've got propaganda. Wait, there's two baggies of feet. Is there supposed to be two bags of feet? And then one of those cute ether lighting cables. I don't actually think that this thing has ether lighting, which if you're not familiar is RGB lighting on the uh the Ethernet ports of Ubiquiti products, some of them. Anyways, they've got these special cables that are translucent that help diffuse the RGB and make it look cool. But these ones, not only are they shielded, but it actually has sle to it, which looks pretty nice. Oh my god. This isn't a drilling template. This template that came in the box is a template for putting the feet on. It's not a drilling template. Huh. I guess I I screwed up. I put the feet in the wrong spot. We've got the signature ubiquity little screen on the front. This is a 0.96 in little display there. And then on the bottom, the feet that I definitely applied in a symmetrical manner. We've got some ventilation. And then on the back, that's what you really want to see. Look at that. Starting on the left, we have a four port 2.5 GB switch right here. Look at that. That's beautiful. Lovely. 10 of 10. very happy to see that one of which if you look really closely has PoE PoE plus that is so not only do you have a bunch of ports to use but one of them can be PoE plus so you can actually run an access point directly off this thing no switch required no PoE injector that's sick also got another RJ45 this is a 10 Gbit one used as a WAN input in case you're not coming off of SFP we've got another 10 Gbit SFP P plus port, which is a LAN port. That's what I was saying earlier. You can pass your up to 10 GB internet connection through to another device or to a switch or whatever you want. And then we've got another SFP plus 10 GB port, but that is a WAN port. Knowing Ubiquiti, you'll be able to reassign these, I'm sure. And I bet you you can use this one as a LAN port, but we'll check that later. We've got our DC barrel jack input here, and then a recessed reset button. I've been seeing on some Ubiquiti products recently that they've been doing like a nice reset button on the bottom that doesn't require a pokey bit to get into. Would have liked to see that here, but also this thing is just pretty baller. Now, all of this is pretty sick, but it gets even sicker when we get to the price, which I'm not going to tell you yet because we still have to look at the other side, which has the storage. It's got a little sneaky little little sneaky link on the side here, a little little little Porterino that you can put an M.2 SSD in. Um, they don't actually include the tray. you have to buy that separately for $19. Um, but you can also buy it with storage pre-installed either in a 1 TB or a 2 TB or with no storage at all. Although given the fact that it has like the network configuration, I imagine there is some amount of storage in here, it's just not enough to run like security cameras or UniFi Talk, which is their voiceover IP phone solution, or connect or anything like that. And that's important because this thing can run all of those things at the same time, including being a router and doing your networking. So, why don't we plug it in and see? I don't actually know if this one came with storage to be honest. They only sell up to two TB and only rate it for up to two TB, but you can get 8 TB M.2 SSDs. So, in theory, you could put 8 TB of storage in here. It's not as much as you can put in a Dream Machine Pro, which has a hard drive port. You put like 30 terabytes in there these days, but 8 terabytes is a lot, especially if you're, you know, only got a couple cameras or whatever. So, let's plug this bang girl in here. Can you guys guess what's on the screen right now? I I think it's going to be Ubiquity logo. I wonder if it auto rotates. Damn it, it's just our sponsor. Thanks to Vessie for sponsoring this video.

The point is, we've also got never-before-seen pricing on our MCM Essentials bundle. Don't miss it. We'll have it linked down below. This is the little metal dad lock tool I'm talking about. You take this and you do a little Oh, yeah. Hey, look at that. Again, just like on the Gateway Max, I really don't love that this port is not useful for normies unless you buy that $19 tray or you buy it with storage. You can't throw your own M.2 SSD in here if you buy it with no storage. You have to buy the tray. You can 3D print models. I've already seen people make models for this, but come on, Ubiquiti. Like, it's got to be like a $1 part to make. Like, just include it in the box. What the heck, guys? Oh, there's a fan in there. Oh, yeah. You hear the air? Yeah. So, it's not just passive. It's got a little got a little fan in there. It's incredibly quiet. Look at that cloud gateway fiber tap to set up. Damn, look at those internet speeds. Internally, it's a quad core ARMbased A73 processor clocking up to 2.2 GHz. It's got 3 GB of RAM. They don't list the internal storage because I imagine it's not very much. And you also have that M.2 slot. Has a 30 W PoE budget of output power for PoE Plus. and it can draw a max power consumption of 29.4 watts excluding PoE. Let me switch over to the laptop and we'll continue from there. I got this Sonet Tech Solo 10G 10 GB to Thunderbolt adapter here for my laptop so we can do some speed tests at full speed. Let's take a look at this thing. She looks mint there, buddy. So, I've got our SFP port using a little SFP to RJ45 adapter. That's our internet coming in. And then I'm using the other one that is also labeled as a WAN port as a LAN port because I adjusted the configuration and it just worked. Sick. So that's plugging in our laptop here. Let me turn the Wi-Fi off. And then there we go. Lovely. Okay, look at this. We got open speed test running that is on a device that is on this network. And if we just we just hit it with some gas here. In theory, this should be able to saturate pretty dang close to 10 GB. Uh the port that it's on on the other side technically does have some other things running on it. So, I wouldn't be surprised if it's more like 9 or 8, but we should get really close. 8 gig down, 9.7 up. I mean, that's basically what I expected. 9 gig. Come on, give it to me. I mean, it's pretty clear to me that this thing can route at 10 GB, like pretty much without any issues. I mean, there's always going to be a little bit of overhead and realistically, who knows what's going on in this Thunderbolt dock. And like I said, the port on the other side could also be doing some other stuff. But we did successfully do a 9 gigabit download test and a 9.7 almost 9.8 gigabit upload test. So, as far as I'm concerned, this thing can do what it says it can do. This thing can handle a full 10 GB internet connection. Just doing a speed test over the internet, no problem. And it also can do, if you're into it and you have some network security stuff, IPS and IDS up to 5 GB as per the rating. They also rate it for 50 plus UniFi devices under management. That could be like 20 switches and 20 access points and still have 10 plus to spare and 500 plus active clients connected. That means you could have a ton of different people on the network running off this tiny little device which honestly is still barely even getting warm. All righty. Look at this here, boys and girls. In this little stack I got here, I got a cloud gateway fiber, our 10 GB router here running all of our UniFi apps. I got a little camera plugged in directly into the PoE port. So that's being powered off of it. You can see she's right there. And then we've got the new UniFi Express 7, which is like an all-in-one access point gateway kind of device, but it doesn't do all the other apps. I'm using it as an access point because I didn't have an access point over here, but I did have this. We'll have a video on this soon. We go back to our network device here. We can see our Cloud Gateway Max rocks here working great. Everything's great. We got our camera adopted. We've got our Express 7 access point adopted. So, we've got a Wi-Fi network going off of that. We've got this going off that. I have IDS and IPS, which is intrusion detection and intrusion prevention, which if you're not familiar, they're just security features you can use to analyze the traffic on your network and try to block threats at a network level. They're not always the most effective, to be honest. Um, there are usually better ways of doing that, like endpoint protection, but it is part of a security stack that you definitely can use and these devices can run. And in theory, this one can run it at 5 GB, it says. So, I want to run a little another speed test here. 7 gigabit download with IPS and IDS turned on and in the most maximum annoying blockage hardcore uh mode. Look at that. 9.7 9 I'm getting full 10 GB upload and like 6.5 to 7 GB download with it fully on even though they only rate it for 5 GB. So, if you're looking for something that can do IPS and IDS, even with a 5 GB internet connection, even with a I guess a 7 GB Ethernet connection, this can do it. And that's not even like with it not doing anything. We have this security camera running off of it. Hey, go. Hey. But man, this thing is a freaking tank. You can have multiple WANs, load balance them, fail them over. In my mind, this thing, if you don't need a hard drive slot, for basically everyone, just slaughters the base Ubiquiti Dream Machine, which is more expensive. If we go to Ubiquiti's website and look under cloud gateways, the cloud gateway fiber is $280 and can handle a full 10 GB routing setup and IPS and IDs up to 5 GB for 280 bucks. If we look at the Dream Machine Pro, it's $380. There's another hundred bucks on top. It is rated for a bit more. In theory, it can do a,000 simultaneous users and 100 plus devices, which is double what this is in theory rated for, but it has lower IDS and IPS throughput. It's only rated for 3.5 GB. It also has a hard drive slot, but it doesn't have PoE output. Honestly, for most people's use cases, especially if you're going to have a Switch anyways, or especially if you have an NVR, this thing freaking kills. I mean, dang, it kind of speaks for itself. If you're somebody that has above 1 GB internet and you have discrete other devices already, like you already have access points or you already have an NVR. I mean, honestly, even if you don't have an MVR, you only need a few cameras, you already have a Switch if you need more than four ports, like it honestly slays. The only things I could really think I would want is like a rack mount accessory for it. So, you could rack mount two of these maybe high availability setup, you know? or uh a USB port so you could have external storage like an external hard drive if you wanted to run protect. Now I know they don't do that because a it has an M.2 but there's capacity limitations there and B because I don't want to fully cannibalize the Dream Machine lineup but man this thing this thing is pretty sick. is making me regret my my decision to build a DIY router cuz for $279 USD you you're going to have a really hard time building a router that can do 10 Gbit. I don't even know if it's possible honestly. But you know what is possible? Hitting the like button and leaving a comment about what you think about this thing.
