Ubiquiti usw-pro-hd-24 Layer 3 Etherlighting Switch

Product Description

The UBIQUITI usw-pro-hd-24 is a professional-grade Layer 3 managed switch built for high-density network deployments. It features 22 2.5 GbE ports, 2 10 GbE ports, and 4 10G SFP+ uplink ports, delivering multi-gigabit throughput across the entire port array. The Etherlighting ports illuminate to indicate port location, link status, connection speed, and native VLAN or network assignment. DC power backup input provides redundancy support for critical infrastructure. Licensed network engineers, systems integrators, and IT infrastructure technicians are the primary installers for this class of switching equipment.

The usw-pro-hd-24 is suited for enterprise and professional-grade LAN environments where multi-gigabit edge density is required. The 22 2.5 GbE access ports support high-throughput endpoints such as wireless access points, workstations, and NAS devices. The 4 10G SFP+ ports serve as high-speed uplinks to core switching or routing infrastructure. Pairing with UniFi Etherlighting Patch Cables is recommended for optimal illumination brightness on Etherlighting-capable ports. This switch is managed through the UniFi Network application, consistent with other UniFi-platform devices.

Key Features

• 22 x 2.5 GbE Etherlighting ports with visual indicators for speed, link, and native VLAN
• 2 x 10 GbE Etherlighting ports for high-speed device or uplink connections
• 4 x 10G SFP+ ports for fiber or DAC uplink connectivity
• Layer 3 switching support enables inter-VLAN routing and advanced network segmentation
• DC power backup ready for redundant power input in critical environments
• Port illumination indicates location, link speed, and VLAN assignment at a glance

Compatibility

Designed for use within the UniFi networking ecosystem and managed via the UniFi Network application. Pairing with UniFi Etherlighting Patch Cables is recommended for optimal Etherlighting port brightness.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified network engineer or systems integrator familiar with Layer 3 switching, VLAN configuration, and structured cabling standards. Power down or disconnect upstream network infrastructure as appropriate before installation to avoid broadcast storms or spanning tree disruptions during bring-up. Rack-mount the unit following standard 19-inch EIA rack practices and ensure adequate airflow clearance. DC power backup wiring should follow local electrical codes and the manufacturer wiring guidelines.
