Every UniFi G6 camera, side by side.

Same brand, same app, no monthly fees. The hard part is which shape and which sensor. This page shows what each step up costs and what it buys you.

The short answer

Three cameras cover most jobs.

MOST HOMES AND SHOPS

G6 Turret

Sees 30 m in the dark, rated to minus 30. If you buy six cameras, five are this one.

WHERE SOMEONE CAN REACH IT

G6 Dome

Same picture as the Turret in a vandal-proof shell. Buy it for the spot a hand can get to.

THE REAL UPGRADE

G6 Pro Turret

A bigger sensor and a real zoom lens. This is where the picture itself gets better.

Best for A nursery, a workshop, a rented place, a spot you cannot run a cable to. The default. Front of house, back yard, shop floor, parking. Black or white. Long driveways, fence lines, loading doors. Where being seen is the point. Hallways, lobbies, parkades, anywhere the public can reach up and grab it. Retail counters, waiting rooms, offices. Where a camera should be there but not noticed. A wide corridor, a storefront, a waiting area, from one cable and one mount. An open room, a shop floor, a gym. Awareness of everything, not a close look at one thing. Where the dark and the distance matter. A long driveway, a yard, a lot at night. The Pro sensor where being seen matters. Gates, yards, long approaches. The Pro sensor where a hand can reach it. Parkade entries, building lobbies. A yard or lot where someone watches live, or a set patrol. A corner or a crossroads. Two directions from one hole in the wall.

Step by step

What the next dollar buys you.

Read down the list. Each line is what you gain by moving up one model.

  1. Step up to G6 Turret: Six metres of night vision to 30. A cable instead of Wi-Fi. Outdoors instead of indoors.

  2. $307 all-in

    Step up to G6 Bullet: Same price Same picture, same price. Pick by shape. The Bullet is the one people see from the street.

  3. $307 all-in

    Step up to G6 Dome: +$124 An IK10 vandal shell that sits flat on a ceiling. Nothing else changes. Only worth it where a hand can reach the camera.

  4. $431 all-in

    Step up to G6 Mini Dome: +$31 Two-way talk and a smaller body, but you lose the weather rating and 10 m of night vision. Indoor only.

  5. $462 all-in

    Step up to G6 180: Same price Two lenses stitched into one 180 degree picture. One camera covers a whole wall.

  6. $462 all-in

    Step up to G6 Pro 360: +$309 A full circle instead of a half. The whole room from one ceiling point.

  7. $771 all-in

    Step up to G6 Pro Turret: This is the step that changes the picture. A bigger sensor and a zoom lens.

  8. Step up to G6 Pro Bullet: Same camera in the bullet shape, for where being seen matters.

  9. Step up to G6 Pro Dome: Same camera, a vandal-proof shell.

  10. Step up to G6 PTZ: It moves. Only worth it if a person will drive it or you set a patrol.

  11. Ask us

    Step up to AI Multi Sensor 2: Two independent lenses that record everything, always, instead of looking closely at one thing.

  12. $1,005 all-in

What every camera needs

Three things, or the camera is a paperweight.

1

A cable

One network cable from the switch to the camera. It carries the power and the video. No power outlet needed at the camera.

2

A PoE switch port

The switch powers the camera down the cable. Most G6 cameras use standard PoE. The 180, the 360, the Pro line and the PTZ need PoE+. The table says which. See switches.

3

A recorder

UniFi records to a box you own, so there is no monthly fee. Size it by camera count and how many days you want to keep. See recorders.

Before you ask

Common questions.

Is a higher megapixel camera better?

Not on its own. Every camera on this page from the Instant to the Dome has the same 8MP sensor. What changes the picture is the sensor size and the lens, and that step is the G6 Pro line. What changes whether the footage is useful is how far it sees in the dark and where it is pointed.

What else do I need?

A PoE switch with a port for each camera, one network cable to each camera, and a recorder. UniFi has no monthly fees, so the recorder is a one-time cost. See the switches and recorders pages for the sizes.

Two Turrets or one 180?

Two Turrets, most of the time. They cost about the same, see further in the dark, run at 30 frames instead of 20, and you can aim each one. The 180 wins when you have one cable and one mounting point and nothing else.

Do you install these?

Yes. We design the layout, pull the cable, mount the cameras and size the recorder. Book a design assessment and the fee comes off the install.

Want it picked and installed?

Book a design assessment. We walk the building, place the cameras, size the recorder and quote it. The fee comes off the install.
