Ubiquiti usw-48 48-port Gigabit Layer 2 Switch 4 Sfp

Product Description

The UBIQUITI usw-48 is a 48-port Layer 2 managed Gigabit switch designed for structured network deployments in commercial and enterprise environments. It delivers 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports alongside 4 SFP uplink ports, enabling fiber connectivity to core switching or upstream infrastructure. The fanless, silent cooling design eliminates mechanical noise and reduces maintenance points in noise-sensitive or enclosed installations. A 1.3-inch touch LCM display provides on-unit status visibility without requiring remote access. Network technicians and IT professionals typically deploy this switch in wiring closets, server rooms, and structured cabling installations.

The usw-48 fits deployments requiring high port-density Layer 2 switching in a quiet, low-maintenance form factor. It is managed through the UniFi Network platform, making it well suited for sites already running UniFi infrastructure. The 4 SFP ports support fiber uplinks to distribution or core switches, accommodating both small commercial buildouts and larger multi-switch topologies where uplink flexibility is required.

Key Features

• 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports for high-density client and device connectivity
• 4 SFP uplink ports for fiber or SFP-based uplink options
• Fanless, silent cooling — no moving parts for reduced failure points
• 1.3-inch touch LCM display for on-device status and configuration feedback
• Layer 2 managed switching with UniFi Network controller integration

Compatibility

Designed as a managed Layer 2 switch for use within UniFi Network deployments; compatible with UniFi Network controller software for centralized management and configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified network technician familiar with structured cabling and managed switch configuration. Power down or disconnect upstream switching equipment before making uplink connections. Follow applicable TIA-568 cabling standards and local low-voltage wiring codes when terminating patch panel and SFP connections. SFP transceivers are not included and must be sourced separately to match fiber type and link distance requirements.
