Curation Review
- ✔ Pros: Full 2.5GbE PoE++ access ports for Wi-Fi 6/7 APs and multi-gig devices; 400W PoE budget covers many high-draw devices; Layer 3 switching with L2 features such as LACP, STP/RSTP and IGMP Snooping; 10G SFP+ uplinks; 1.3-inch touchscreen display for on-device status; fanless design suits quiet installations
- ✘ Cons: Only two 10G SFP+ uplinks, with no 25G option on the official spec sheet; 400W PoE budget is less than the total port count could draw at full PoE++ load; retail price is high compared with smaller UniFi switches; the official spec sheet does not list stacking support; sources disagree on MSRP, so buyers must confirm current pricing with a retailer
- Est. Price: $799 - $966

Curation Review
- ✔ Pros: 760 Gbps switching capacity and 565 Mpps forwarding rate for aggregation duty; 28 x 10G SFP+ plus 4 x 25G SFP28 uplink ports; Layer 3 switching with Layer 2 features; DC input for redundant power backup; compact 1U rack form factor
- ✘ Cons: No PoE, so it can't power APs or cameras directly; no stacking listed; not in stock on Ubiquiti's US store (marked 'No restock date yet'); 100 W power draw is high for a non-PoE 1U switch; price is above many 10G-only alternatives
