Ubiquiti UDR7: A Powerful 10G Cloud Gateway for Seamless Network Management

When it comes to combining network performance, security, and simplicity, the Ubiquiti Dream Router 7 (UDR7) stands out as one of the most capable UniFi Consoles available. Designed for both residential and small-to-medium business networks, the UDR7 brings the full power of the UniFi ecosystem into one compact, all-in-one gateway.

At LinITX, we’ve taken a closer look at the features that make the UDR7 an excellent choice for professional installers and IT specialists looking for a next-generation networking solution.

All In One UniFi Management 

The UDR7 acts as a central UniFi Console , seamlessly managing UniFi Network, Protect, Access, Talk and Connect – all from one device. This integration makes it easy to monitor and control every aspect of your network, from wireless performance to IP cameras, door access and VoIP systems. 

For growing networks, the UDR7 supports up to 30 additional UniFi devices and up to five HD, two 2K or one 4K camera, allowing flexible scalability across both wireless and surveillance systems. Whether you’re managing a small office or a multi-site business, this device offers a streamlined and centralised approach to network control. 

 

High-Speed Connectivity with Flexible Options
Connectivity is where the UDR7 truly excels. It features dual WAN ports – one 10G SFP+ and one 2.5GbE – providing flexible high-speed internet connections that adapt to a range of setups and ISP requirements. 

On the LAN side, the UDR7 includes three 2.5GbE ports, with Port 1 offering 15.4W PoE+. That means you can directly power compatible devices such as the Ubiquiti U7-Lite access point, helping simplify installation and reduce the need for additional power injectors or switches. 

 

Next-Generation Wi-Fi 7 Performance

The UDR7 is powered by the latest Wi-Fi 7 technology, delivering incredible speeds of up: 

• 5.7 Gbps on 6 GHz
• 4.3 Gbps on 5  GHz
• 688 Mbps on 2.4GHz

These tri-band radios use 2×2 MIMO (Multiple Input, Multiple Output) with high-gain antennas, ensuring strong coverage, high throughput, and minimal interference – even in environments with multiple connected devices. 

This means smoother streaming, faster file transfers and a more reliable experience across your entire network. 

 

Built-In NVR and Storage Expansion

For those using UniFi Protect, the UDR7 comes with 64GB of onboard MicroSD storage, pre-installed and ready to go. This provides local video storage for your UniFi cameras right out of the box. 

Need more capacity? There’s an additional MicroSD slot for easy storage expansion, letting you scale your NVR space as your surveillance needs grow. 

 

What’s in the Box

The Ubiquiti UDR7 package includes everything you need to get started:

• Ubiquiti Dream Router 7 unit – sleek, compact, and approximately 18.5 cm tall by 11 cm wide
• Power cable – EU cable included in-box; UK cable provided separately with all LinITX-supplied units
• Pre-installed 64GB MicroSD card – with a removal tool for easy access to the expansion slot

As always, setup and configuration can be completed quickly using the UniFi Network Application, giving you immediate access to advanced monitoring and management tools.

 

Final Thoughts

The Ubiquiti UDR7 is more than just a router — it’s a complete 10G cloud gateway designed to make network management simpler, smarter, and more scalable. From Wi-Fi 7 performance and PoE support to integrated UniFi management and onboard storage, it’s the perfect foundation for modern network deployments.

Whether you’re installing in a home, office, or retail space, the UDR7 offers the flexibility and performance needed for today’s connected environments.
