Ubiquiti UniFi Pro 48-Port PoE Managed Switch

Ubiquiti UniFi Pro 48-Port PoE | Enterprise-Grade Managed Switch

The Ubiquiti UniFi Pro 48-Port PoE Managed L2/L3 Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) Power over Ethernet (PoE) 1U Silver delivers enterprise switching power for high-density networks. With 48 Gigabit ports, 4x 10G SFP+ uplinks, and robust Layer 3 capabilities, it supports demanding business environments requiring reliable PoE delivery and advanced network management.

Key Specifications

Enterprise-Grade PoE Delivery

The switch provides 40 PoE+ ports capable of delivering up to 64 W per port, making it ideal for powering high-wattage devices like wireless access points, IP cameras, and VoIP phones without external injectors. The 600 W total PoE budget ensures reliable operation even under full load, supporting modern network deployments where power delivery is critical.

Advanced Layer 3 Switching Performance

With Layer 3 routing capabilities, this switch handles complex network topologies efficiently. The 176 Gbps switching capacity and 88 Mpps throughput deliver wire-speed performance for demanding applications. Static routing, VLAN support, and advanced security features like IEEE 802.1X authentication provide the foundation for sophisticated network architectures.

Near-Silent Operation for Quiet Environments

The redesigned airflow system significantly reduces fan noise, making this switch suitable for office environments where acoustic comfort matters. The passive cooling design maintains optimal temperatures while keeping noise levels minimal, unlike traditional enterprise switches that can create distracting background noise in shared spaces.

Redundant Power Protection System

The integrated UniFi SmartPower RPS (USP-RPS) provides automatic failover protection. If the primary power supply fails, the redundant system instantly takes over, ensuring continuous network operation. A single SmartPower device can support up to six connected switches, providing enterprise-grade reliability without complex backup configurations.
