What is a PoE switch?
Power over Ethernet (PoE) switches are devices that allow you to power other devices, such as access points, cameras, or phones, with the same cable that transmits network data to them. This makes it easier to set up these devices and reduces the number of cables needed. PoE switches come in different sizes, speeds, and power levels, depending on the number of devices you need to power.

Which switch is right for me?
We offer four main switch families with different port counts, speeds, and PoE budgets:
Compact: Our compact and lightweight switches are versatile and suitable for small spaces, remote deployments, or installations with limited infrastructure. They offer a variety of port numbers and speeds, including multi-gigabit options, providing strong performance without sacrificing space or efficiency.
Value: High-performance switches with 8 to 48 1GbE RJ45 ports, offering PoE and non-PoE models. An economical and efficient solution for medium-sized networks that require reliable connections without sacrificing quality.
Professional grade: One level higher than our Value series, these switches offer increased PoE power capacity, power redundancy support, up to 25G SFP+ uplink, and advanced 3-layer routing capabilities. Designed for high-performance networks that require speed, reliability, and scalability.
Enterprise: backbone switches designed specifically for the most demanding enterprise environments. These switches have an uplink speed of up to 100 Gbps and a high-capacity 10GbE + PoE++ output, making them ideal for high-availability system design and large-capacity, performance-critical networks.
To determine which UniFi switch is right for you, consider the size and complexity of your network, the number and type of PoE devices you need to support, and any advanced features or capabilities you require.
