I'm guessing newer Ubiquiti APs will be similar in power consumption/not too far off so my guess is that you could run 2-3 of those APs on this switch conservatively.

You may be thinking of the variants that don't have PoE and may or may not be managed (w/ more ports), e.g. GS305, GS308E, etc.

There are nuances such as how your 1000 download speed will be divided up between all connections if each of them are downloading at full tilt, but I feel like the spirit of your question is whether this device will be a bottleneck in your network, and although theoretically yes, in reality the impact is so small it'd be within margin of error.
Your cable guy is correct without getting into the details; 1K MB throughput is only reliably achievable with a wired connection (there are latest model routers that can achieve this wirelessly, but they're expensive, requires newer devices that are compatible, and still suffer all the downsides of wireless signals).
