Ubiquiti UF-AE | UFiber Active Ethernet
$59.00
A fibre-to-Ethernet converter for connecting a fibre uplink to equipment that expects a standard RJ45 Ethernet port.
Why this one
- Bridges a fibre SFP connection to a GbE RJ45 port, so devices without a built-in SFP slot — switches, routers, NVRs — can terminate a fibre run directly.
- Fits neatly into UFiber deployments where the last device in the chain needs copper, avoiding a separate media converter from a different ecosystem.
- Compact form factor means it can sit at the termination point rather than in a rack, which matters when the endpoint is a wall cabinet or AV cupboard.
Good fit if you're terminating a fibre link at a device that only has an RJ45 port and need a clean, UFiber-compatible way to bridge the two.
Worth considering something else if your endpoint device already has an SFP slot — a direct SFP module is a simpler path with one fewer conversion point in the chain.
What you'll also need
A compatible SFP module matched to your fibre type, the fibre patch lead to the uplink side, and a power source at the termination point — confirm power requirements at the time of purchase as no specifications are published for this SKU.
