The UniFi routers are managed via controller software, ideal for remote management.

 

Where are ubiquity products made?

The manufacturing of Ubiquiti products is done by contract manufacturers exclusively outside the U.S. Also, logistics/fulfilment is “primarily in China, and to a lesser extent, Taiwan and United States.” In addition, roughly 2/3 of UBNT's workforce is outside the U.S.

 

Who makes ubiquity?

Robert J. Pera is the founder of Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. a global communications technology company that Pera took public in 2011. In October 2012, Pera also became the owner of a professional basketball team: The Memphis Grizzlies of the National Basketball Association. Pera founded Ubiquiti Networks in March 2005 using only $30,000 of personal savings and credit card debt. Ubiquiti's early products utilized existing Wi-Fi technology to wirelessly deliver the Internet to underserved areas lacking the infrastructure to access the Internet through traditional avenues such as phone lines and cable lines. The company has since successfully branched out into other product lines such as wireless access points, security cameras and traditional networking equipment like switches and routers.
