The Ubiquiti UniFi Dream Machine Beast (Model: UDM-Beast) is a enterprise security gateway and application console engineered to power extreme-density corporate networks, data centers, and multi-tenant campuses. Designed to handle intense throughput demands without security inspection bottlenecks, the unit features high-speed routing engines capable of executing full Threat Management (IPS/IDS) and Deep Packet Inspection at throughput rates exceeding 25 Gbps.
Equipped with a 100G QSFP28 uplink port and 25G SFP28 interfaces, the UDM-Beast acts as a high-speed core router and aggregation hub. It incorporates a built-in switch array featuring 2.5GbE RJ45 ports with high-capacity 802.3bt PoE++ output. For UniFi Protect high-definition video retention, the front panel accommodates dual hot-swappable 3.5" drive bays supporting high-speed enterprise NVMe or SATA drives in RAID configurations. Hardware reliability is enforced via dual hot-swappable AC power supply modules and an integrated 1.3" LCM color touchscreen for real-time system diagnostics and link status monitoring.
