Centralized Hardware Wiring, Emergency Safeguards & Real-Time Telemetry
Engineered for rack-mount or wall-mount deployment in IT rooms and IDF closets, the Ubiquiti EAH-8 Access Hub centralizes all lock wiring, door sensors, emergency push buttons, and UniFi Access card readers into one manageable hub. Built-in emergency dry contact inputs allow instant physical tie-in with facility fire alarm systems, automatically unlocking all connected doors during emergency evacuations. With real-time status LED telemetry and intuitive plug-and-play adoption via the UniFi Access application, deployment is fast, reliable, and completely scalable.
8-Door Centralized Control
Replaces multiple single-door controllers by consolidating hardware inputs and outputs for up to 8 entry doors into a single rack-mountable chassis.
Integrated Powered Lock Relays
Features onboard 12V DC power outputs for driving magnetic locks, electric door strikes, and motorized crash bars without needing external power supplies.
Fire Alarm System Interlock
Dedicated dry contact emergency inputs connect directly to central building fire alarm panels to trigger automatic fail-safe door unlocks during alarms.
Seamless UniFi App Management
Fully managed via the license-free UniFi Access platform, offering drag-and-drop user group provisioning, custom schedules, and live video audit trails.

How many doors can a single Ubiquiti EAH-8 Access Hub control?
The EAH-8 Access Hub is designed to manage up to 8 independent doors, providing dedicated lock relays, reader ports, and sensor inputs for each doorway.
Does the EAH-8 require separate power supplies for electric door locks?
In most installations, no. The EAH-8 includes internal 12V DC powered relay outputs capable of driving standard magnetic locks and electric strikes directly.
How does the EAH-8 connect to central building fire alarm systems?
The unit features dedicated emergency signal inputs that connect to fire control panels, automatically cutting power to fail-safe locks during a fire emergency.
Are there recurring software licensing fees to use the EAH-8 with UniFi Access?
No, like all UniFi hardware, the UniFi Access application runs license-free on compatible UniFi OS consoles (such as the Dream Machine Special Edition or Network NVR).
