Switch Pro 8 PoE
USW-Pro-8-PoE€269 excl. VAT
Switch Pro 8 PoE is a compact Layer 3 switch with PoE ports, SFP+ ports and a touchscreen on the front, for a desk or a wall.
Who it suits
Suits homes and small offices that want to power access points, cameras or IP phones with PoE from a compact switch on a desk, a shelf or the wall, with no network cabinet. As a Layer 3 switch it can route traffic between networks (VLANs) itself, so traffic between, say, an office network and a camera network does not have to pass through the gateway. The SFP+ ports are for a fiber link or a fast connection to the gateway or another switch.

Good to know
- The 120 W PoE budget is shared across the eight PoE ports (six PoE+ and two PoE++), so not every port can deliver full power at once.

| Notes | The 120 W PoE budget is shared across the eight PoE ports (six PoE+ and two PoE++), so not every port can deliver full power at once. | The USB-C power adapter comes only with the single pack, not with the 3- and 5-packs. Can be powered through a PoE input (802.3af/at) but has no PoE output. | Can be powered through a PoE input or the included USB-C adapter but has no PoE output. | Made for both indoor and outdoor use; the USW-Flex-Utility enclosure (sold separately) is for exposed outdoor locations. Pole mounting requires the USW-Flex-Utility accessory. | A PoE input is enough to run the switch, but PoE output needs a PoE+/PoE++ input or an AC adapter. Ubiquiti's PoE budgets apply at 45 °C; at 60 °C the figure is reduced to 161 W (230 V). | The 52 W PoE budget is shared across the four PoE+ ports (up to 30 W per port), so not every port can deliver full power at once. The budget applies with the included 60 W power adapter. | The 10 GbE RJ45 and 10G SFP+ ports are one combo uplink: only one of them can be used at a time. DIN rail and magnetic mounting need accessories sold separately. Ubiquiti lists outdoor installation when the switch is paired with a Flex Utility enclosure, sold separately. | The 10 GbE RJ45 and 10G SFP+ ports are one combo uplink: only one of them can be used at a time. DIN rail and magnetic mounting need accessories sold separately. Ubiquiti lists outdoor installation when the switch is paired with a Flex Utility enclosure, sold separately. | The 45 W PoE budget is shared across the eight PoE+ ports (up to 32 W per port), so not every port can deliver full power at once. | A power supply is not included. The switch runs on 12–60 V DC through a terminal block and has two DC inputs for redundant power. Has a dry contact relay output for connecting external alarms and automation. | Can be powered through a PoE+ input or the included 25 W USB-C adapter but has no PoE output. Ubiquiti's datasheet says the switch must not be physically stacked. | A power supply is not included. PoE+/PoE++ output needs 50–57 V DC at the input, and the PoE budget of up to 480 W depends on the supply you connect. Has a dry contact relay output for connecting external alarms and automation. | Ubiquiti classes this model as Vintage: it is no longer manufactured or actively developed but may still be available to buy. It continues to receive critical bug fixes and security updates. Ubiquiti says the switch should not be physically stacked. The 120 W PoE budget is shared across the eight PoE+ ports (up to 32 W per port), so not every port can deliver full power at once. | The 155 W PoE budget is shared across the eight PoE++ ports (up to 60 W per port), so not every port can deliver full power at once. The RJ45 ports run at 10 Gbps and also support 5G, 2.5G, 1G and 100M. | Has a dry contact relay output for connecting external alarms and automation. |
