Looking for a reliable 4K CCTV installer who’ll swing by for a free on‑site quote across Bendigo, Ballarat, Geelong, Melbourne and the surrounding Central Victorian towns?

In a nutshell, the UXG‑Pro is a rack‑mountable gateway that gives your business a sturdy, secure internet connection with automatic failover between two WAN links. If you need enterprise‑grade firewall protection, VPN capability, and a network that keeps your UniFi Protect cameras or VoIP phones humming, HiVizz Security can set it up and deliver a free quote within two business days.
Why a Multi‑WAN Gateway Matters for Bendigo SMBs
Regional businesses in Bendigo often run on a single ISP, so an unexpected outage can bring sales to a halt, knock out point‑of‑sale systems and cut off customer communication. A multi‑WAN gateway lets you hook up two separate internet feeds – for example, an NBN line and a 4G/5G backup – and automatically switches to the secondary line if the primary one drops. That failover keeps your network alive, protects revenue and helps you meet any industry‑specific uptime requirements. For a shop on the Marong‑Bendigo corridor or a small office in Castlemaine, that extra resilience can be the difference between a smooth day and a costly downtime event.
Key Features of the Ubiquiti Gateway Professional (UXG‑Pro)
The Ubiquiti Next‑generation UniFi Gateway Pro10G (UXG‑Pro) packs a suite of enterprise‑class features into a 1U rack‑mountable chassis:
- 10 Gbps SFP+ WAN & LAN ports plus a Gigabit Ethernet WAN for backup – high‑speed fibre or copper connections can be wired straight into the device.
- 1.7 GHz quad‑core processor – handles deep packet inspection (DPI), intrusion prevention (IPS) and intrusion detection (IDS) without slowing everyday traffic.
- DC power‑backup ready – pair it with a UniFi SmartPower RPS (sold separately) and the gateway stays online during a power cut.
- Managed through the UniFi Network application (v5.14.11 or later) – a web‑based dashboard that lets you configure firewalls, Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) and VPNs from any computer or mobile device.
- Dual‑WAN failover – the two WAN ports (one GbE RJ45, one 10 Gb SFP+) automatically switch if one link drops, ensuring continuous internet access.
All of these specs come straight from the manufacturer’s data sheet, so the performance numbers are trustworthy.

Who Should Choose This Gateway?
The UXG‑Pro makes sense for medium‑to‑large small‑businesses that need more than a basic router:
- Businesses running UniFi Protect Network Video Recorders (NVRs) or on‑premise Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) phone systems – the high‑throughput ports keep video streams and voice packets moving without bottlenecks.
- Companies that require robust VPN or SD‑WAN connections – remote staff or branch offices can link securely to the main site.
- Enterprises that prefer rack‑mount hardware – the 1U form factor fits neatly into a standard server cabinet, leaving room for future expansion.
- Organisations that value future‑proofing – the 10 Gb SFP+ ports let you upgrade to faster fibre links without swapping the whole gateway.
If you’re a home user or a very small shop that only needs basic Wi‑Fi routing, a lower‑cost model such as the UniFi Dream Router (UDR) or UniFi Express may be a better fit.
Installation Essentials & Required Accessories
While the UXG‑Pro is essentially plug‑and‑play, a successful install in a Bendigo or Melbourne office usually needs a few extra bits:
| Item | Why You Need It |
|---|---|
| UniFi Network Controller (cloud‑key or software) | Provides the management interface for configuring firewalls, VLANs and VPNs. |
| PoE (Power over Ethernet) switch or power injector | Powers any UniFi access points you add without separate power cables. |
| Rack‑mount kit (1U) | Secures the gateway in a standard server rack or wall‑mount cabinet. |
| UniFi SmartPower RPS (optional) | Supplies DC backup power so the gateway stays online during outages. |
| Cat6 cabling | Supports Gigabit Ethernet and is ready for 10 Gb SFP+ modules. |
| SFP+ modules | Needed to connect fibre or high‑speed copper to the 10 Gb ports. |
HiVizz Security can deliver and install all of these accessories, mount the gateway in your rack and finish the configuration so your network is secure from day one.

FAQ
Q: Can the UXG‑Pro handle video surveillance traffic from UniFi Protect cameras? A: Yes. HiVizz Security installs the UXG‑Pro with enough bandwidth and firewall rules to keep high‑resolution camera streams flowing smoothly, even when multiple cameras record at once.
Q: Do I need a separate backup battery for the gateway? A: The UXG‑Pro is DC power‑backup ready, but you’ll need a UniFi SmartPower RPS (sold separately) to provide that backup. We can recommend the right RPS for your site and install it for you.
Q: What’s the difference between the UXG‑Pro and the UDM‑SE? A: The UXG‑Pro is a dedicated standalone 1U rack‑mount gateway designed to offload controller duties to an external UniFi Network controller or Cloud Key. In contrast, the UDM‑SE is a 1U rack‑mount all‑in‑one console that includes built‑in UniFi OS application hosting (UniFi Protect, Network, and more), an internal 8‑port PoE switch, an integrated NVR drive bay for surveillance storage, and dual‑WAN connectivity (2.5 GbE RJ45 and 10G SFP+) with failover support.
Q: Is a UniFi Network Controller mandatory for the UXG‑Pro? A: The gateway is managed through the UniFi Network application, which can run on a cloud‑key, dedicated hardware controller or a software install on a local server. We can set up the controller as part of your installation package.
Q: Can HiVizz Security help me configure VLANs for guest Wi‑Fi? A: Absolutely. Our technicians will create separate Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) for guest access, staff devices and surveillance equipment, keeping each segment isolated and secure.
