Ubiquiti UniFi Switch USW-Enterprise

The switch features 12 ports capable of 2.5GbE speeds, which are ideal for high-performance Wi-Fi 6/6E access points or workstations that exceed standard gigabit speeds. The remaining 12 ports are standard 1GbE, allowing you to connect legacy devices or standard network equipment alongside your high-bandwidth hardware.

Yes, it supports 802.3at PoE+ on all 24 RJ45 ports with a total power budget of 400W. This is sufficient for most modern enterprise-grade access points, VoIP phones, and security cameras, though you should verify the power draw of your specific devices to ensure you stay within the 400W limit.

Yes, it is a managed Layer 3 switch, meaning it supports advanced routing features like inter-VLAN routing, static routing, and DHCP relay. This allows for better network segmentation and traffic management compared to standard Layer 2 switches.

The two 10GbE SFP+ ports are designed for high-speed fiber uplinks. They allow you to connect the switch to your core network or a high-speed router at 10Gbps, preventing bottlenecks when multiple devices are transferring data simultaneously.

The 1.3-inch touchscreen is primarily for quick status monitoring, such as checking system health, port status, and IP addresses without needing to log into the UniFi controller. While it is not a replacement for the full software management interface, it provides helpful, at-a-glance information when you are physically in the server room.

Yes, the switch adheres to standard IEEE 802.3af/at PoE standards, so it will work with any standard-compliant devices regardless of the manufacturer. However, to take full advantage of the UniFi ecosystem's centralized management and monitoring, it is best used within a UniFi network environment.
