Common FAQs
What is the PoE++ capacity per port?
Each PoE++ port can deliver up to 60W of power, ideal for high-demand devices like Wi-Fi 6E access points and PTZ cameras.
Can I use this switch for Layer 3 routing?
Yes. The USW-Pro-Max-48-PoE supports Layer 3 features including static routing and inter-VLAN routing.
What is Etherlighting™ and how does it help?
Etherlighting™ provides visual cues on each port to help you quickly identify connection speed, link activity, VLAN membership, and other network diagnostics.
Does the switch support redundancy?
Yes. It is compatible with the UniFi SmartPower RPS (USP-RPS), which provides power failover protection in case of primary PSU failure.
Can it be used in a data center or enterprise setup?
Absolutely. With its 224 Gbps switching capacity, 10G uplinks, and high PoE budget, it is well-suited for enterprise core and distribution layer deployments.
