Review: Holy crap...great router but NOT for the newbie. - I thought I understood home networking, but this router proved I'm but a babe in the woods. What I say now is that I understand typical consumer router options from D-Link, TP-Link, Netgear, etc. but I have really had to make this old brain work hard to understand what I needed to configure this router. Keep in mind, Ubiquiti products have generally been produced for commercial applications and administered by network professionals. This is commercial-grade product with a few consumer-friendly features added, but you still really need to know what the crap you are doing. I'm not kidding. If you have only a basic understanding of DHCP, port forwarding, AP and bridging, DNS, and NAT like I did, you will really struggle setting this router up. I thought I would simply be able to make copies of all my old D-Link router settings and copy them over to the new X-SFP but it was not even close. Ubiquiti offers a bunch of guides and forums, but I found that most of them are geared toward someone who has more knowledge than an average home user. This makes sense because an average home user is not going to be bothering with VPNs, multiple LANs, POE equipment and exotic networking scenarios. However, once you discover this whole other world that's available, and you want a better router, you quickly realize that you don't know jack about how to do all this. I have Gb Uverse and I wanted to remove my old wifi router and use this X-SFP router and a separate wifi router as AP. It literally took me DAYS trying to figure out exactly how to configure this successfully. I have a Plex server and needed to open and forward ports, create static and dynamic DHCP assignments, etc. I also had to figure out the right way to use OpenDNS name servers. I thought I had it correctly configured but then it would lose connectivity and I could not figure out what was wrong. I finally wiped everything and started over following some YouTube tutorials and got everything working. HINT: Make sure you save your configuration often, it will save you tons of time if accidentally screw something up. HINT 2: Keep it physically accessible at the beginning. For some stupid reason, Ubiquiti only allows you to use one ethernet port to do the initial connection and setup. That same port then becomes your Internet port, and you move the network cable to a different port to continue administering it. So if you have to do a factory reset and you have had your Internet connected, you will need to physically move the cable back to the "Internet" port and go from there. Since my router is in the basement it was a pain in the butt to make a lot of changes like that. Note: every port is completely configurable to act in any capacity (LAN vs WAN, for example), but not in default state. HINT 3: You must manually enable hardware offloading to allow Gb speeds. This is disabled by default. I'm still tweaking things but slowly. I look forward to getting to know this router, but it's taking some effort. Review: Great Router - Not for beginners with little patience. Having used Cisco and FortiNet. All for work. So I have a Linksys LRT2x4 for my house and it just didn't allow enough configuration for my desire. I had several UAPs and just bought a 8 port POE Ubiquiti switch and was very happy with the ease of use and low price for my home setup. Bought this router and found it to be a great little device. Was very easy to update the firmware and get it running. The wizards are easy to use but the syntax is different from others so it took me a little reading to understand what the device wanted to do. Once running, I had my network configured with VLANs for wireless guests and secure network for my home equipment with proper ACL (firewall) settings for access between networks for printers etc. Remote management is not wizard-based (as of this review) and it took a forum search to find the suggested way of enabling it for your setup. Easy to do, once I found the method they want to be used. Throughput is near GB speeds. The router is handling the traffic very well. My Linksys router often had issues or delays while I was accessing my Armcrest NVR. With this router, the load time is noticeably faster and HD video is clear instantly. (no real buffering noticed like from Linksys) If you want to get this router or any Ubiquiti products, I would point you to a YouTube channel, Crosstalk Solutions. He does a very good run down of several products (this router as well) and how they are used/configured. Only weakness (in terms of configuring) I would note is the Remote VPN access. I am surprised a wizard or better configuration page doesn't exist. I'm sure it will come out, but not as of this review. Very impressed. I will buy a couple more to use in my work locations to see if they can handle networks of 100 and 500 stations. However for home use, this is a fantastic buy. ## Features - Ubiquiti Networks ER-X-SFP EdgeRouter X --U.S. Model-- - 5 x Gigabit Ethernet Data/PoE Outputs 1 x Gigabit Ethernet SFP Data Port. - SFP Model Powered By Adaptor with Ubiquiti Passive PoE Support --See User Manual-- - Edge Operating System with Intuitive User Interface. - 880 MHz dual-core processor along with 256 MB of DDR3 RAM and 256 MB of NAND code storage. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B012X45WH6 | | Antenna Location | Home | | Antenna Type | Internal | | Best Sellers Rank | #31,611 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) #898 in Computer Routers | | Brand | Ubiquiti Networks | | Color | black | | Compatible Devices | Personal Computer | | Connectivity Protocol | Ethernet | | Connectivity Technology | Ethernet | | Control Method | App | | Controller Type | Switch | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 516 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 1 gigabits_per_second | | Frequency | 880 MHz | | Frequency Band Class | Single-Band | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00810354021817, 00810354028649 | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 5.59"L x 2.95"W x 0.91"H | | Item Weight | 0.6 kg | | LAN Port Bandwidth | 1.0 gigabits_per_second | | Manufacturer | Ubiquiti | | Maximum Upstream Data Transfer Rate | 1000 megabits_per_second | | Mfr Part Number | ER-X-SFP | | Model Name | EdgeRouter X ER-X-SFP | | Model Number | ER-X-SFP | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Ports | 5 | | Operating System | Edge Operating System | | Other Special Features of the Product | WPS | | RAM Memory Installed | 256 MB | | Router Firewall Security Level | True | | Router Network Type | Ethernet | | Security Protocol | WPS | | Special Feature | WPS | | UPC | 053926243433 810354028649 810354021817 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Voltage | 24 volts | | Wireless Communication Standard | 802.11ac | | Wireless Compability | 802.11ac | ## Product Details - **Antenna Type:** Internal - **Brand:** Ubiquiti Networks - **Color:** black - **Compatible Devices:** Personal Computer - **Connectivity Technology:** Ethernet - **Frequency Band Class:** Single-Band - **Model Name:** EdgeRouter X ER-X-SFP - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Home - **Special Feature:** WPS - **Wireless Communication Standard:** 802.11ac ## Images ![Ubiquiti Edgerouter X SFP - Router - Desktop - Black (ER-X-SFP) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/515Zw39LXdL.jpg) ![Ubiquiti Edgerouter X SFP - Router - Desktop - Black (ER-X-SFP) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51oRmmdfpeL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can this router power uap-ac-pro-us through poe?** A: Nope, only passive 24v POE is supported. The UAP-AC-PRO is 48v POE I believe. If you are looking to not have the POE injectors you can either get an ERPOE-5 which will do 48v or use the UAP-AC-LR with the ER-X as thise run off of 24v. Real world performance wise the speed difference between the 2 access points is debatable but the added range gained by using the LR version more than makes up for it. Also consider a deployment of several AC-LITE units strategically placed for more uniform coverage. Handoff is smooth and seamless. Dont forget that wifi is a two way street and your mobile devices will never be as powerful as that single access point. Hope this helps. **Q: Do i *need* to use the sfp port as a wan port? i have cat5e drop from a building managed switch as my internet connection, no isp router.** A: No, you can use the Ethernet port. Follow the setup guide and select which port(s) to use as Wan, you can have multiple Wans. You must configure the router before putting it on the network or it will not grab a Wan IP. **Q: Will this device allow you to setup multiple dhcp scopes and let you setup scope options? I'm looking for options 66 and 67 for PXE. Thx.** A: To answer the question for anyone else who may be needing it. Yes you can create multiple dhcp scopes, similar to my setup here: http://imgur.com/ZvjDO55 For options you will need to go into the CLI, (super easy to use for EdgeOS built off of vynatta), but is fairly straightforward, https://help.ubnt.com/hc/en-us/articles/204960074-EdgeRouter-Define-custom-DHCP-options **Q: Does it includes the power adapter? (In the Ubiquiti web brochure says it's not)** A: Yes. There is a power brick in the box. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Holy crap...great router but NOT for the newbie. *by G***C on August 5, 2019* I thought I understood home networking, but this router proved I'm but a babe in the woods.

According to what I read, it is capable of doing HW offloading on some tasks. I can say that so far it's handled our household load well, with nary a CPU spike. It just chugs along, routing and such. Setup was a bit involved. This is not for the faint of heart, that's for darn sure. I am a software developer, so I have some ability to understand technical things, and I found it pretty easy to get what I needed done. Ubiquiti is know for support, and I was able to easily find plenty of how-tos and walkthroughs, and their forums are always full of people to help. For what it's worth, I am using the zone-policy firewall, which is a tad more involved to setup. After getting everything setup I was able to speedtest my wired devices up to 600Mbps+ (I am on Giga-fiber) and the CPU and memory barely moved. With my Time Capsule setup I seemed to peak at about 300Mbps, so it's definitely an improvement. I do wish I would have gone with the USG and maybe the US-8-150W as a combo, as I later added the AP-AC-PRO Wifi AP to replace my Time Capsules. This would have allowed me to use the Unifi Controller to control/monitor all my devices. The EdgeRouter doesn't plug into that control infrastructure, so you miss all the pretty graphs. Maybe down the road I'll re-design things with Unifi hardware. For now, the EdgeRouter seems to do what I need it to. ## Frequently Bought Together - Ubiquiti Edgerouter X SFP - Router - Desktop - Black (ER-X-SFP) - Ubiquiti U6+ Dual Band IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax 3 Gbit/s Wireless Access Point - Ubiquiti Networks Unifi AC Mesh 1167Mbit/s Power over Ethernet (PoE) White --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sg/products/19816344-ubiquiti-edgerouter-x-sfp-router-desktop-black-er-x-sfp](https://www.desertcart.sg/products/19816344-ubiquiti-edgerouter-x-sfp-router-desktop-black-er-x-sfp) --- *Product available on Desertcart Singapore* *Store origin: SG* *Last updated: 2026-11-11*
