Just spotted this on Ubiquiti's website. A complete new range of wireless APs:

 

https://www.ubnt.com/unifi/unifi-ac/

 

 

New features:

 

  • Spectral Analysis
  • Band Steering
  • Airtime Fairness

 

The Edu version includes a speaker so you can setup a PA system. It's unclear if the spectral analysis feature now means channels and power are now automatically managed.

Is anyone using those ~roughly £12 adaptors to get UniFi APs to ingest non-passive PoE?

 

We used to use them but have since moved over to Unifi's own Toughswitches

do they need a controller now?

 

Depends how you define Controller?

 

There isn't a hardware controller but there is the controller software that comes free.

 

I'm about to spec a new school with them, looking the AC lite versions which are only $150 each

We have an old netgear wireless system which only allows 16APs per controller,

 

As long we don't have to buy a controller just to use the APs. If its software based I'm guessing you just install it on a desktop / server and use it from there?!?
