In true form for Ubiquiti, their Black Friday sale is pretty ho-hum. I use a lot of their equipment for the handful of businesses that I manage but over the last 3 years I've only bought one thing from their Black Friday sales. Other than the PTZ camera that's out of stock, that's the only thing I would have bought. If you need a rugged router, that looks like a pretty good price.
Ubiquiti's Black Friday sale is strongest on cameras and a few networking upgrades, with the G5 PTZ drawing the most attention at $150 and the AI Port at $100. The Enterprise 24 PoE Vintage also stands out at $400 for 2.5GbE PoE, and the Industrial Gateway gets interest for its built-in access point and UCG-Fiber-like performance. Stock is the main snag, since the PTZ camera keeps selling out and returning, and free shipping is missing this year. It is a better fit if you are chasing a specific camera or switch deal than if you want a broad prosumer refresh.
Installers wanting a high-end PTZ camera, because the G5 PTZ is priced aggressively and can come back into stock.
The G5 PTZ appears to cycle between out of stock and back in stock, and it was available in both black and white at different times. If it shows sold out, checking again later can still catch it in stock.
The G5 PTZ is listed at $150 during the sale. That price was described as a strong deal, especially compared with a recent purchase of 2 units for $774.
No memory or tariff surcharges are applied to the Black Friday items. That makes the listed sale prices cleaner than Ubiquiti's usual pricing structure.
The Enterprise 24 PoE (Vintage) is priced at $400, down from about $800 normally and $600 last Black Friday. It offers 2.5GbE PoE at a much lower entry price for the Ubiquiti ecosystem.
The Christmas sale has historically covered more devices and included free shipping on both the Black Friday and Christmas promos last year. If nothing in the current lineup is urgent, waiting may surface better options.
