Ubiquiti EAH-8 Enterprise Access Hub with Entry Control

Overview

The Ubiquiti EAH-8 is a wall-mounted access control hub designed to centralize door and entry management across enterprise facilities. It provides eight door-control outputs via relay terminals (lock + auxiliary), eight request-to-exit inputs, and eight door position sensor inputs — enough hardwired logic to manage medium-scale access deployments without a separate controller appliance. The EAH-8 connects to your UniFi ecosystem via ten 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports and supplies up to 60W of aggregated PoE power (30W per port on eight PoE+ outputs) to downstream access points, electric locks, and edge devices. Running on 100–240V AC universal input with 240W max consumption, it suits both data-center and distributed branch-office environments.

Compatibility

The EAH-8 integrates with UniFi Dream Machine and UniFi Cloud management platforms. All eight PoE+ outputs support UniFi access hardware, wireless access points, and compliant third-party devices drawing up to 30W per port. Door-exit and position-sensor inputs accept dry-contact and passive switches — no active signaling required. Lock terminals support both 12V DC powered relays (1A max) and dry-contact configurations, accommodating electric strike plates, mag locks, and solenoid-driven hardware common in enterprise door hardware. Magnetic lock cable runs extend up to 80–262 feet depending on gauge and load; electric lock circuits support runs of 25–217 feet (consult technical specs for your specific lock current draw).

Installation Notes

Mount horizontally to a wall using the included SGCC steel bracket. The device operates from 0 to 40°C (32 to 104°F) in indoor environments only — do not expose to outdoor rain or direct UV. All power and signal connections use screw terminals; no RJ-45 connectors on relay or sensor inputs. Verify your AC supply can deliver 4.4A at 50/60 Hz; most standard 20A branch circuits will support it. Door lock wiring must comply with cable gauge limits specified in the datasheet to avoid voltage drop and relay chatter.
