Ubiquiti UniFi Enterprise 8 PoE | 8-Port 2.5G Multi-Gigabit Switch

Ubiquiti UniFi Enterprise 8 PoE Switch (USW-Enterprise-8-PoE)

The Ubiquiti UniFi Enterprise 8 PoE is a fully managed Layer 3 switch designed to eliminate data bottlenecks in modern, high-density networks. Built as a compact desktop unit that can also be mounted to walls, this switch is engineered to handle the high-throughput demands of contemporary Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7 access points, network-attached storage (NAS) devices, and multi-gigabit workstations.

With a total non-blocking switching throughput of 40 Gbps, it provides clean, unhindered data transit for intensive local network setups.

High-Performance Port Layout

• Multi-Gigabit RJ45 Access: Equipped with eight 2.5 GbE ports. Unlike standard Gigabit switches, these faster links prevent port saturation when routing data from high-bandwidth wireless clients and multi-gig devices.

• 10G Fibre Infrastructure Uplinks: Features two 10G SFP+ ports. These provide high-capacity backhaul lines to connect directly to your core network aggregation switch or primary storage server.

• Single-Row Alignment: All RJ45 ports are positioned in a single clean row across the chassis. This makes physical cable management straightforward when connecting directly to a local patch panel.

Power Over Ethernet Capacity

Every copper port on the switch supports auto-sensing 802.3at PoE+. Driven by a robust internal power supply, the switch reserves a 120W dedicated PoE power budget to feed downstream hardware directly through standard category copper cables.

• Max. PoE+ Output Per Port: Up to 32W

• Allocation: Dynamically managed across your network to run multiple access points, high-draw PTZ security cameras, or VoIP systems without overloading the circuit.

Advanced Layer 3 Functionality & Local Display

Moving beyond basic Layer 2 routing, this switch processes traffic distribution locally to reduce the workload on your primary internet router:

• Inter-VLAN Routing: Directly routes internal traffic between different networks on the switch chassis itself.

• Static Routing & DHCP Server: Features built-in static routing alongside localized DHCP server hosting for independent, fast local network subnets.

• 1.3" Color Touchscreen: The integrated front display provides rapid diagnostic tracking, port allocation readouts, and supports Augmented Reality (AR) switch visualization via your smartphone camera.
