Ubiquiti is a US networking company whose smart home relevance comes from its UniFi platform, spanning Wi-Fi routers, mesh systems, switches, security cameras (UniFi Protect), video doorbells and access control. Its gear is prized by enthusiasts for high performance, a unified local-first UniFi OS interface and no mandatory subscriptions. A fast, reliable UniFi network is a popular backbone for larger smart homes, though the ecosystem leans prosumer rather than plug-and-play.
