UniFi Protect G6 180: what it is & who it's for
Two 8MP sensors stitched into one 16MP, 180° strip — a whole frontage or car park from a single wall mount, for $299. The trade is frame rate (20 fps), IR reach (20 m), and a PoE+ port. Long flat frontages, shop fronts, and car parks where one wide strip beats two cameras and two cable runs.
