The USG is the Unifi Security Gateway and the XG is an Access Point.
They aren't remotely the same thing, so what you're asking doesn't make sense.
https://unifi-xg.ubnt.com/usg-xg-8
They just call it an XG GatewaySearching for Unifi XG comes up with this as the top result.

Hence the confusion on my part.
Yeah I got excited when I thought I found the XG Gateway on Amazon for $400. Then i saw it was just the switch.

Yeah it really is. Honestly I need something between the XG and the Pro model.

It is still something I would never use.
I want my router to be a router.

The infinity is the ER8-XG. See something the same there
-
Jeez... The ER-8-XG seems a bit overkill unless you're doing some quite hefty internetting, lol... So does the price tag! (Still priced dang better than a Cisco).

ROFL. How many users are actually on campus now?

@dafyre At most, I'm only seeing around 2000 devices through the day

You're still hovering around 500 mb/s for internet, right?
-
@dafyre Yup! This Feb we're going to finally get gig I believe. There's another ISP that's emerged that's threatening our current one :).

It's all about 10 Gig ports.
I don't know about most of you - but I definitely don't need that.
Yeah something in the middle would be kinda nice.

There is. See the link to to the full comparison. I was laughing about the comparison from top to nearly bottom.
-
@JaredBusch Do you think they need to offer something between the ERPro-8 and the ER-8-XG?

The ER-6P is better than the ER-Pro8 in all but PPS, which seems odd, but shoulder shrug.

Looking at the Comparison link JB Posted, I'd probably check out the ER4 or the ER-6P.
