The key distinction from everything else in this fibre lineup is symmetry. The UISP-FIBER-XGS uses an ITU-G.9807 XGS-PON WAN port with a total non-blocking line rate of 9.95 Gbps downstream and 9.95 Gbps upstream — fully symmetric multi-gigabit throughput. Where GPON delivers 2.488/1.244 Gbps and the Fiber XG delivers an asymmetric 9.95/2.44 Gbps, the XGS is the unit for deployments where upstream bandwidth matters as much as down: high-density residential builds, enterprise premises running cloud workloads, or ISPs delivering symmetric 10G service tiers.

The SC/APC WAN port operates at TX 1270 nm / RX 1577 nm with a normal TX range of 4 to 9 dBm and RX range of −9 to −26 dBm, using scrambled NRZ line coding, at a maximum physical reach of 20 km.

10 GbE LAN — Matched to the PON Capacity

The LAN port is a multi-rate 100/1000/2500/5000/10,000 MbE auto-negotiating RJ45, capable of terminating the full 10 Gbps PON capacity to downstream equipment. This is a meaningful differentiator over the Fiber XG, whose 2.5 GbE LAN port caps the effective client throughput well below the PON’s upstream capacity. To utilise the full 10 GbE LAN rate, downstream equipment (router, switch, or NIC) must also support 10 GbE.

OLT Compatibility — XGS-PON Port Required

The UISP-FIBER-XGS is only compatible with the UISP Fiber OLT XGS and cannot be used with third-party OLTs. The UISP-FIBER-OLT-XGS supports XGS-PON, XG-PON, and GPON ports concurrently across its eight PON ports, so an XGS-PON port on the OLT is required for this unit specifically.

XGS-PON only — not GPON or XG-PON. This unit will not register on GPON-only OLTs (UF-OLT, UF-OLT-4) or on an XG-PON port. It requires an XGS-PON port on the UISP-FIBER-OLT-XGS.

Power — USB-C Only

Unlike the Fiber XG and WaveFiber ONU which support both USB-C and 24V passive PoE, the UISP-FIBER-XGS is powered exclusively via USB-C 5V DC / 3A (included adapter), with a maximum power consumption of 8W. There is no passive PoE input on this unit — installation planning should account for a USB-C power point at the premises.

Optical Signal LEDs and Management

The three-LED PON signal strength indicator uses the same pattern as other UISP fibre CPE: all off during bootup; 1× orange for too low (below −27 dBm); 1× white for low (≥ −27 dBm); 2× white for good (≥ −24 dBm); 3× white for strong (≥ −12 dBm); 1× orange + 2× white for too strong (≥ −9 dBm); 3× orange for no signal. Management runs through the UISP platform (version 1.5.7 and later).

Wireless standards span IEEE 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7) on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, delivering up to 5760 Mbps at 5 GHz (across band1/band2/band3) and 1376 Mbps at 2.4 GHz — a combined 7.2 Gbps. The headline Wi-Fi 7 additions over Wi-Fi 6 are Multi-Link Operation (MLO), 4K-QAM, Multi-RUs, and wider 320 MHz channels on 6 GHz (where applicable). MLO, Band Steering, Zero-Wait DFS, and EasyMesh are all supported. The 5 GHz radio uses a 4T5R antenna architecture (4 transmitters, 5 receivers) for improved receive sensitivity at longer ranges.

Wi-Fi 7 features require Wi-Fi 7 clients. MLO, 4K-QAM, and Multi-RUs only function with Wi-Fi 7 devices. Older clients connect normally at their supported standard. This is a dual-band device (2.4 GHz + 5 GHz); there is no 6 GHz band.

XGS-PON — Symmetric 10G Fibre

The XGS-PON port conforms to ITU G.9807.1, Class B+, delivering 10 Gbps downstream and 10 Gbps upstream at RX 1577 nm / TX 1270 nm via a DFB laser transmitter and PIN-TIA receiver, over an SC/APC connector at up to 20 km. This is the same XGS-PON standard as the Ubiquiti UISP-FIBER-XGS, but here it’s integrated into a full wireless CPE rather than a standalone ONU — the XGB430V Pro eliminates the need for a separate router entirely.

XGS-PON requires an XGS-PON OLT. This is not a GPON device. Confirm your fibre provider operates XGS-PON infrastructure and will provision a third-party ONT before purchasing.

Ports — 10G, Multi-Gig, VoIP, USB

Interfaces are: 1× SC/APC XGS-PON port, 1× 10G WAN/LAN port (configurable), 4× 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit LAN ports, 2× FXS VoIP ports, and 1× USB 3.0 port. The dual FXS ports are a meaningful step up from the single FXS on the XX230V — relevant for small businesses or homes with two active analogue lines. The USB 3.0 port supports file sharing via Samba/FTP and can serve as a 3G/4G dongle fallback WAN connection.

Routing, Security, and IPTV

Software features include SPI Firewall, DDoS protection, IP-MAC binding, Access Control, NAT with ALG/Virtual Server/Port Triggering/DMZ/UPnP, Static Routing, RIP, PPPoE/Dynamic/Static IP WAN modes, DHCP server/client, DDNS (NO-IP, DynDNS), IGMP v2/v3 Snooping/Proxy for IPTV, WMM QoS, Wi-Fi scheduling, and parental controls. Up to 3 SSIDs per band (6 total) with WPA/WPA2/WPA3-PSK.

Management

Management covers local web UI, remote management, TR-069 (TR-098/TR-143), IPv4 and IPv6, and the Aginet app for end users. ISPs can manage and provision remotely via ACS (TR-069) or OMCI. Onboard resources are 256 MB flash and 512 MB RAM.
