Ubiquiti usw-enterprise-8-poe 8-port 2.5gbe Poe+ Managed Switch

Product Description

The UBIQUITI usw-enterprise-8-poe is a managed network switch designed for high-density, low-footprint deployments where high-throughput and power delivery matter. It delivers eight 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet ports with PoE+ capability, plus two 10G SFP+ uplink ports for backbone connectivity. The switch is managed through the UniFi controller platform, giving network technicians centralized visibility, VLAN segmentation, traffic monitoring, and firmware management from a single interface. Its desktop form factor makes it practical for wiring closets, server rooms, and edge deployments where rack space is limited.

This switch is suited for commercial and advanced residential network installations where legacy 1GbE throughput is a bottleneck. The 2.5GbE per-port speed supports Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 6E access points, multi-gig workstations, and PoE-powered devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points. Network technicians and IT professionals deploying UniFi ecosystems will find this switch a direct fit for structured cabling environments that require both power delivery and multi-gigabit switching at the edge.

Key Features

• 8 x 2.5GbE RJ45 ports with PoE+ support for powering connected devices
• 2 x 10G SFP+ ports for high-speed uplink or inter-switch connectivity
• Fully managed via UniFi Network controller software
• Desktop form factor for space-constrained installations
• Supports VLAN, QoS, and traffic monitoring through UniFi interface

Compatibility

Designed for use within the Ubiquiti UniFi network ecosystem and compatible with IEEE 802.3at PoE+ powered devices. Specific third-party device compatibility should be verified against the UniFi compatibility documentation prior to installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified network technician familiar with managed switch configuration and structured cabling standards. Power down or disconnect upstream network equipment before making cabling changes to avoid network disruption. Ensure the power source meets the switch input requirements before connecting PoE+ devices to avoid overloading the power budget. SFP+ modules should be verified for compatibility before insertion.
