Ubiquiti G3 Intercom access terminal
7-inch capacitive multitouch, portrait2 MP, 1200 × 1600, up to 30 FPS48 V DC PoE, maximum 13 WIP65, indoor/outdoor use
The Ubiquiti G3 Intercom (UA-G3-Intercom) is a complete indoor/outdoor intercom terminal for residential or commercial entry requests, with a built-in camera, portrait touchscreen and physical PIN keypad. It is managed through UniFi Access and requires a suitable Access Hub/controller and door-entry installation; it is not a standalone lock or complete access kit.
Best For: For homes or commercial sites building a UniFi Access entry system that need an indoor/outdoor intercom terminal with a display, camera, physical PIN keypad and multiple listed access methods. A compatible Access Hub/controller, suitable PoE network power and cabling, and separately selected lock/door hardware are needed unless an appropriate installation already provides them.
Before you order: This terminal is managed by UniFi Access and is not a standalone lock or complete access kit. A compatible Access Hub/controller and suitable PoE installation are required, along with lock/door hardware for controlled entry unless already present. The package does not include a mains adapter or injector, hub/controller, network equipment, viewers, lock, pedestal, Ethernet cabling or physical cards. The 10 Touch Passes are free for one year only; check current renewal terms when planning continued use. Wallet use is subject to compatible devices and configuration.
What's in the Box
- One Ubiquiti G3 Intercom terminal
- One wall-mount bracket
- One gooseneck pedestal adapter
- Six M3 screws
- Six wall anchors
- Four M5 nuts
- Four M5 bolts
- Four M2.5 screws
- 10 free one-year Touch Pass entitlements
What It Means in Practice
- The terminal connects by PoE at 48 V DC and has a maximum power consumption of 13 W; this is its input requirement, not the upstream PoE++ requirement shown for an Access Hub in the topology.
- The listed camera sensor is 8 MP, while the video output is 2 MP at 1200 × 1600 (3:4), up to 30 FPS. The display is portrait and its listed resolution is 1024 × 600 px.
- For the stated PoE cabling recommendation, use at least Cat 5e; the category should match the link speed needed at the installation site. The specified minimum conductor gauges are 26 AWG for patch cords and 24 AWG for horizontal or riser cable.
- The device operating-temperature range begins at -30°C, while the display range begins at -25°C. Humidity is specified as 5–90% non-condensing.
What Will Not Work
- Not a standalone lock or complete access kit; managed UniFi Access deployment with a compatible Access Hub/controller is required.
- For controlled entry, suitable lock/door hardware is needed unless an appropriate installation already provides it.
- No mains adapter or PoE injector, Access Hub/controller, network switch or gateway, Intercom Viewer, lock, pedestal, Ethernet cabling or physical access cards are included.
- Optional surface-angle, flush-mount and sunshield kits are not included; the gooseneck pedestal itself is not included.
- The 10 included Touch Passes are one-year entitlements, not physical cards, lifetime passes or unlimited free mobile credentials.
- IEEE 802.3 compliance was not verified as part of UL 294; the listed UL 294 levels do not establish that verification.
Key Features
Multiple listed entry methods
Supports NFC cards/keyfobs, PIN, QR, Apple/Google Wallet, mobile unlock and face unlock; enrollment, compatible credentials and configuration are required.
Intercom and doorbell
Two-way intercom and doorbell entry requests use the integrated microphone and speaker.
Camera and display
An 8 MP camera sensor is specified separately from 2 MP video output; the terminal has a 7-inch portrait capacitive multitouch display.
Indoor/outdoor installation
IP65 enclosure and included wall bracket support the stated indoor/outdoor use; installation and door suitability still need to be assessed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this operate as a standalone door lock?
No. It is an intercom terminal managed by UniFi Access, not a standalone lock or complete access kit. A compatible Access Hub/controller and suitable door hardware are needed for controlled entry unless already provided by the installation.
What powers the terminal?
It uses 48 V DC PoE and consumes up to 13 W. The manufacturer specifies a UL 294 power-limited Class 2 PSU or a UL 60950-1/62368-1 LPS/PS2 PSU. The terminal package does not include a mains adapter or injector.
Are the other devices in the topology included?
No. The Access Hub, Cloud Gateway, switch and Intercom Viewers shown in the topology are installation-context devices, not package contents. Viewers are optional for some setups; the other required system components must be selected separately unless already present.
What do the free Touch Passes include?
The product includes 10 free one-year Touch Pass entitlements. They are not physical cards, lifetime passes or unlimited free mobile credentials; check current renewal terms when planning continued use.
Singular Expert Insight
This exact G3 combines two-way intercom and doorbell requests with a 7-inch portrait multitouch display and listed NFC, PIN, QR, Wallet, mobile and face-unlock methods. Its 8 MP sensor specification is separate from its 2 MP video output (1200 × 1600, up to 30 FPS). This distinction matters when selecting the video detail needed at the entrance.
