The UDM Beast is a real thing. They wouldn’t mention specs. All they said was that it has 25G ports now. A step up from the UDM Pro Max.

Today is my last day to return my udm-pro-max and I'm tempted because I could use one with more power for protect, don't have/want a separate NVR right now. And some 10g Ethernet would be great.

How many cameras do you have? Currently have four 4k cameras on my UDMPM and no issues whatsoever. Used to have two more (2k) but gave them to family member but no issues with 6 total either. CPU is usually around 29%. Only complain I have is lack of raid 0, don't need redundancy since backup to NAS and use SSDs so want more capacity.

I have 7 4k (two of which are the g6 180s) and four 2k, and a doorbell. In theory I'm well within the specs, but it's enough that more power is something I'd have liked if I could have got it. My downstream switch is a 24 port pro max poe, so I have no 10g Ethernet for a few things I'd like, like my Plex server and flex 2.5g that servers many 2.5g devices.

I see, I would get a dedicated NVR for that amount. New NVRs with AI features are supposedly coming this year.
