Stacking support: No (Redundant Power via USP-RPS)
Curation Review
✔ Pros:High-speed 2.5G connectivity ideal for Wi-Fi 6/6E/7 access points; Dual 10G SFP+ uplinks prevent core network bottlenecks; Integrated Layer 3 routing features for improved network efficiency; 1.3 inch LCM color touchscreen with AR port management
✘ Cons:Lacks PoE++ (802.3bt) support for high-power devices; Only half of the RJ45 ports (12/24) support 2.5G speeds; Active cooling fans may be audible in silent office environments; Higher price point compared to standard Gigabit PoE switches
