Plan with UniFi gateways, switches, NVRs, and common rack infrastructure instead of anonymous rectangles.
Design a UniFi rack the installation team can trust.
Move from a list of UniFi products to a clear rack layout with device placement, PoE context, cable planning, collaboration, and client sign-off in one workflow.
A good UniFi deployment starts before equipment reaches the site.
Gateways, switches, NVRs, patch panels, power, and cable management compete for limited rack space. Planning those relationships early makes quoting clearer and reduces improvisation during installation.
Connect the rack design to cameras, access points, and other powered devices so power requirements stay part of the conversation.
Present a polished visual plan, gather approval, and give installers documentation that reflects the agreed design.
From requirements to an install-ready rack plan.
