Ubiquiti Floating Mount - 17 cm Offset Mount for UniFi Access Points
The Ubiquiti Floating Mount (UACC-FM-17cm) is a compact mounting accessory designed to position compatible UniFi access points slightly away from the mounting surface. By creating a fixed 17 cm offset, it allows improved placement in environments where direct wall or ceiling mounting may not be practical.
Designed for clean and discreet installations, the floating mount helps optimise access point positioning for consistent wireless coverage in homes, offices, and branch sites. Its offset design can be particularly useful in areas with structural obstacles, shallow ceilings, or where improved signal distribution is required without altering the surrounding infrastructure.
Constructed for long-term reliability, the UACC-FM-17cm integrates seamlessly with UniFi hardware and maintains a professional finish once installed. It is well suited to both new deployments and retrofit projects where precise access point placement is needed to support modern wireless networks.
