The Ubiquiti UniFi SuperLink Glass Break and Motion Sensor, part number USL-GLASS, is a premium battery-powered security device designed to integrate seamlessly with the UniFi Protect ecosystem. This advanced sensor combines high-sensitivity motion detection with sophisticated glass-break analysis, providing comprehensive coverage for doors, windows, and entry points. By utilizing the proprietary SuperLink protocol, it ensures reliable wireless communication over long distances while maintaining low power consumption through its dual lithium battery design.
This device offers a robust security solution that monitors for both motion and specific glass break frequencies, triggering immediate alerts within the UniFi Protect Application. It includes built-in tamper detection to warn of unauthorized access or removal, ensuring your perimeter remains secure at all times. Please note that this sensor requires a USL-GATEWAY to function and is managed exclusively through the mobile or web interface of the UniFi Protect suite.
Key Performance Specifications
The USL-GLASS delivers exceptional range and reliability, utilizing SuperLink technology to achieve a maximum transmission distance of up to 2 km (1.2 mi) under optimal conditions. Operating on specific frequencies for different regions, the device transmits at 915.6-927.6 MHz in the US and 865.1-869.5 MHz in the EU, with a maximum TX power of 14 dBm to ensure strong signal integrity even through walls.
Smart Detection and Mounting Capabilities
Safety is the priority with this sensor, which detects a wide variety of glass types including plate, tempered, obscured, laminated, coated, and wired glass. It supports glass sizes ranging from 280 x 356 mm up to 1067 x 1626 mm across various thicknesses from 2.4 mm to 6.4 mm. The unit is built with a durable polycarbonate enclosure and can be installed using either adhesive backing or screws for maximum stability.
Battery Life and Hardware Details
Designed for long-term deployment without frequent maintenance, the sensor runs on two CR123A lithium batteries that provide a battery life of up to three years. The compact design measures approximately 134.5 x 22.5 x 24.8 mm with a wall mount and weighs only 70 g including the mount and batteries. It includes status LEDs for signal strength and device activity, along with buttons for factory resets and tamper switches.
Software Integration
Management is streamlined through the UniFi Protect web application or mobile apps available for iOS and Android. This integration allows users to configure zones, adjust sensitivity settings, and receive real-time notifications directly on their devices, ensuring that you stay connected to your property security from anywhere in the world.
What's in the box
The package includes the Ubiquiti UniFi SuperLink Glass Break and Motion Sensor unit (USL-GLASS), necessary mounting hardware for both adhesive and screw installation methods, and two CR123A lithium batteries pre-installed. The device is ready to pair with your USL-GATEWAY immediately upon setup.
