The Ubiquiti UniFi WiFi 7 In-Wall Access Point (U7-IW),is an affordable, versatile dual-band WiFi 7 access point designed for discreet wall installations in hotels, offices, and multi-room environments, combining high-speed wireless with a built-in 3-port 2.5 GbE PoE switch for simplified cabling.

It features 4 spatial streams (2x2 on 5 GHz and 2x2 on 2.4 GHz) for aggregate throughput up to 5.8 Gbps (2,882 Mbps on 5 GHz + 2,898 Mbps on 2.4 GHz), covering up to 115 m² (1,250 sq ft) and handling 200+ clients.

Measuring 135.2 x 86.7 x 26.3 mm and weighing 350 g, its sleek white design blends into standard wall outlets, with a rear 2.5G PoE+ uplink (802.3at) that doubles as power input, plus two front 2.5G LAN ports (one with 802.3af PoE out up to 15.4W for powering devices like IP phones or cameras).

Powered by a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 @ 1.5 GHz processor and 2 GB DDR4 RAM, it supports MU-MIMO, OFDMA, and WPA3 security, managed via the UniFi Network app with Bluetooth setup.

Strengths include its Swiss Army knife-like functionality for PoE passthrough in space-constrained setups and license-free scalability, but it lacks 6 GHz support (dual-band only) and requires separate PoE injection.

Ideal for hospitality where aesthetics and wired integration matter, it future-proofs networks without the bulk of ceiling APs
