+1 would recommend - with caveats.

The AC model is… flaky - or at least, it was when I tried it at the end of 
2014. Only about 50% of client devices would connect at a time - seemingly 
random - restart the AP and some different ones would connect. Performance was 
great for those that were connected, but I’d be hesitant about installing it at 
a paying customer’s premises.

As Todd says, the basic UAP is 24v passive PoE, not 48v 802.11af. There is, 
however, an adapter for around £12 that converts 802.11af into 24v passive PoE, 
which works well. You don’t need to use the provided AC adapter unless you want 
to.

The UAP Pro is excellent. Standard PoE from any 802.11af switch, good coverage, 
decent performance, and no problems with dozens of devices connected to it.

If you don’t need 5Ghz and you aren’t bothered about the non-standard PoE, then 
the UAP is cheap-as-chips (around £50 at last check). Otherwise go with the UAP 
Pro.

Kind regards,

Chris
