Ubiquiti UP-SIREN-POE All-weather siren with 110 dB alarm, LED

Ubiquiti UP-SIREN-POE All-Weather Siren with PoE

Overview

The Ubiquiti UP-SIREN-POE is a wall or ceiling-mounted alarm siren designed for outdoor security deployments requiring audible alerting integrated with UniFi Protect surveillance systems. Powered entirely over Ethernet via PoE at 5W maximum consumption, this device eliminates the need for separate power infrastructure while maintaining a compact aluminum alloy and polycarbonate enclosure rated IP56 for weather resistance across operating temperatures from −30 to 50°C. The UP-SIREN-POE (MPN: UP-SIREN-POE) connects through a single 10/100 Mbps RJ45 port and centralizes alarm management through UniFi Protect Web and mobile applications on iOS and Android platforms.

Key Features

The device delivers a 110 dB alarm output suitable for perimeter and facility-wide alerting. Status and alert indication occurs via integrated LED signaling, allowing remote visual confirmation of device state. Its compact form factor measures 139.9 x 139.9 x 35 mm and weighs 308 grams, enabling discreet mounting on most wall and ceiling surfaces. The polycarbonate and aluminum construction withstands harsh outdoor environments, while the IP56 rating protects against dust and water ingress from any direction. A single factory reset button provides local management capability independent of network connectivity.

Deployment Scenarios

This siren integrates into UniFi Protect ecosystems for alarm triggering during perimeter breach detection, access control violations, or security events. Typical deployments include campus entrances, loading docks, outdoor equipment yards, and parking facilities where audible alerts improve response times. The PoE architecture simplifies multi-unit rollouts since existing PoE switches and injectors supply power; no additional electrical runs are required. Organizations managing distributed facilities benefit from centralized alarm scheduling and testing through the UniFi management interface.

Network Integration

The UP-SIREN-POE communicates over 10/100 Mbps Ethernet, requiring minimal bandwidth for alert transmission and status reporting. It integrates natively with UniFi Protect deployments, allowing trigger rules based on camera events, motion detection, or manual activation. The device supports FCC, IC, and CE certification pathways and is NDAA compliant, meeting U.S. federal procurement requirements. Standard network segmentation and firewall practices apply; the siren functions within secure VLAN configurations typical of enterprise surveillance deployments.

Installation Notes

Mount the device on walls or ceilings using supplied fixtures, ensuring PoE-capable network infrastructure terminates within practical distance. The 5W power draw sits well within standard PoE budget allocations. Confirm UniFi Protect software version compatibility before deployment and configure alert rules through the management dashboard. No additional configuration is required beyond standard network attachment; the device appears automatically in the UniFi controller for alarm scheduling and event-driven activation.

Marty Allison, Infrastructure Architect

"The UP-SIREN-POE fills a gap in many UniFi Protect deployments where audible confirmation matters as much as visual recording. By consolidating power and control into PoE infrastructure, it reduces installation overhead compared to traditional hardwired sirens. I've deployed this in campus perimeters and seen measurable improvement in response times when paired with motion detection rules. The 110 dB output is genuine—you'll hear it at distance—and the aluminum housing handles salt spray and UV exposure without degradation. For organizations already invested in UniFi, it's a logical addition; for greenfield builds, it justifies early PoE switch capacity planning."
