It's a proprietary, long-range, low-latency wireless protocol. I won't be adopting it even though I have a bunch of Unifi equipment, but it's interesting to see what protocols are springing up.

Wonderful. Of course Ubi would go ahead and roll their own. Another competing standard. Comments on the video look much the same. €125 (more with VAT) for a hub is a bad joke.

I've solidified on ZigBee as it's cheap, it gets the job done, it's isolated from other equipment, and it's completely local.

There's just no benefit to me in switching to something else or pushing forward with matter/thread.
