Expansion
Expanding existing UniFi installations
Add access points, cameras or doors to your UniFi system without redoing what already works.
In short: Expanding a UniFi installation requires checking console capacity, available ports and PoE power, recording storage and software version before adding new devices.
Our approach
One of UniFi's strengths is that it grows with you. But every expansion has limits: free ports, switch PoE budget, recording capacity, number of devices the console supports.
We check those limits before proposing anything, so the expansion doesn't degrade what's there.
