My bad. A colleague told me about an EdgeMax AP, but I think he referes to airMax:

Oh, the consumer stuff.

AmpliFi is the consumer model of this. The AirMax line if for the WISP market to install in subscriber homes. Still consumer, but different.

Oh okay, I forgot that there was a WISP model.

@JaredBusch I'm looking at the AirMAX lineup and have used a few of the products like the NanoStation 5AC loco with fabulous results.. but the rest of the stuff looks a little more than consumer grade. Do you think this is an accurate breakdown -

Unifi - Small to Medium business with low customization needs. Primarily for Access Layer and down. Nice interface but not standard for routing setup

Edge - Small to Medium business with some need for customization of a network including standard router configurations.

AirMAX - WISP Focused pseudo professional wireless distribution

AirFiber - Carrier Grade Backbone PtP Systems

AmpliFi - Straight Home use and consumer grade.

Thanks - Trae

UniFi routers and switches, yes. UniFi Access Points, are solid for any purpose.

Also, I would personally never use UniFi routing/switching in SMB. But I know some people just live that pretty pane of glass that they never look at after 3 weeks.
