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
  • Est. Price: $899 - $1,048

Curation Review

  • ✔ Pros: 16 PoE++/PoE+ ports and 8 2.5GbE PoE++ ports provide a mix of multi-gig and PoE for access points and cameras; 400 W PoE budget covers typical AP and camera loads; Layer 3 features (inter-VLAN routing, static routes, DHCP server) let it handle routing without a separate router; 112 Gbps switching capacity and 83 Mpps forwarding rate; 2x 10G SFP+ uplinks; LACP, jumbo frames and 1,000 VLANs; 1.3-inch touchscreen LCD for on-device status
  • ✘ Cons: 400 W PoE budget is less than the 960 W that all 16 PoE++ ports could draw at full 60 W, so simultaneous full-power loads are limited; only 2 SFP+ uplink ports and no documented stacking; 1.5 MB packet buffer is small for heavy multi-gig traffic; price is high compared with unmanaged or lower-PoE switches; 1U rack-mount chassis needs a rack; no published fan noise or stacking data, and no independent long-term reviews were found
  • Est. Price: $799 - $1,022
