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: Full 720W PoE budget with 64W PoE++ on 16 of the 48 copper ports, suited to high-power devices; 16 multi-gigabit 2.5GbE ports for Wi-Fi 6/7 access points and high-speed endpoints; Layer 3 routing (inter-VLAN, static routes, DHCP relay) without a separate router; 4x 10G SFP+ uplinks for aggregation or fibre; 224 Gbps switching capacity and 167 Mpps forwarding rate; centralized management through UniFi Network with a touchscreen display; rack-mountable 1U form factor with redundant DC power input
  • ✘ Cons: High price relative to smaller UniFi switches, with US prices roughly $1,300 to $1,500 at major sellers; requires UniFi Network 8.0.24 or later, so it is tied to the UniFi ecosystem; 720W total PoE budget can be exhausted if all 48 ports draw high power, so per-port budgeting is needed; 6.2 kg weight and full-depth chassis require a sturdy rack; stacking support is not listed in official specifications, which limits scaling as a single logical unit; fan noise is not specified, which matters for non-data-centre installs
  • Est. Price: $1,299 - $1,527
