Ubiquiti UVC-G6-ENTRY UniFi Protect Camera

Ubiquiti UVC-G6-ENTRY Door Entry Camera System

Overview

The Ubiquiti UVC-G6-ENTRY (MPN: UVC-G6-ENTRY) is a compact door entry camera designed for unified access control and building surveillance within the UniFi Protect ecosystem. Built on a quad-core Arm Cortex-A53 processor, this device integrates directly with UniFi Protect and UniFi Access management platforms, enabling centralized monitoring and access policy enforcement across multi-site deployments. The aluminum enclosure with stainless steel wall mount ensures durability in mixed indoor/outdoor environments.

When This Is the Correct Choice

Deploy the UVC-G6-ENTRY at building entrances, vestibules, and access gates where integrated identity verification and video logging are required. This model is optimal for organizations standardizing on Ubiquiti infrastructure and requiring bidirectional communication between access control and surveillance systems. Ideal for campuses, office buildings, and facilities where door-level authentication must synchronize with video records.

When to Choose a Different Model

If long-range perimeter surveillance or advanced thermal imaging is required, consider the UVC-G4-PRO or thermal-equipped variants. For internal hallway monitoring without access control integration, the standard UVC-G4 offers lower cost. High-traffic outdoor exposures exceeding IP55 durability should use IP67-rated alternatives.

Environmental and Durability Ratings

The UVC-G6-ENTRY carries an IP55 rating, protecting against water jets and dust ingress suitable for covered entryways and mild outdoor exposure. Operating temperature range spans −30 to 50°C (−22 to 122°F), supporting cold-climate and high-heat installations. NDAA compliance and CE/FCC/IC certifications meet federal procurement and international regulatory requirements. The aluminum housing and stainless steel mounting hardware resist corrosion in salt-spray and humid environments.

Power and Installation Notes

The UVC-G6-ENTRY operates on PoE+ (42–57V DC input) with a maximum power budget of 16W, compatible with standard 802.3bt PoE infrastructure. A single GbE RJ45 port handles both power delivery and data; no auxiliary power connections are required. Dimensions of 176 × 45 × 29.6 mm and weight of 275 g (9.7 oz) enable flush wall-mount installation in tight spaces such as door frames or column-mounted positions. Wall-mount hardware is included; integration with UniFi Access controllers enables event-driven workflows and credential-based entry logging.

Network Integration

The UVC-G6-ENTRY connects directly to UniFi Protect for centralized NVR storage and multi-camera management, and to UniFi Access for badge/biometric reader synchronization. All video streams and access events flow through a single GbE connection, simplifying network topology and reducing cable runs in dense entry-control zones. Managed through the same UniFi interface as switches, APs, and controllers, it eliminates separate management silos.

Eden Phillips, Infrastructure Specialist

"The UVC-G6-ENTRY fills a specific gap: it's the first Ubiquiti camera purpose-built as an access-control node rather than a surveillance afterthought. The quad-core processor and direct UniFi Access integration mean you're not bolting a camera onto a separate access-control system; they're native peers in the same ecosystem. For integrators managing 50+ door sites, that unified policy layer saves weeks of configuration work. The 16W PoE+ budget is reasonable for a device this compact, and the IP55 rating is honest—it's an entryway camera, not a hurricane-grade outdoor unit. Spec the UVC-G6-ENTRY when client requirements include video audit trails for access events; skip it if the project is surveillance-only." — Eden Phillips, Senior Systems Architect
