• Voice & Surveillance Ready: Deploy VoIP phones, UniFi Protect cameras, or wireless APs—all powered directly from the switch.

⚡ Full PoE+ Across All 48 Ports

Power is a major feature of the USW-Pro-48-POE. With 600W total PoE budget, this switch can deliver PoE+ (802.3at) power to every single RJ45 port.

• Dynamic PoE allocation ensures efficient power usage across connected devices

• Easily power Wi-Fi 6 access points, IP security cameras, door access systems, point-of-sale terminals, and more

• No need for external power injectors or additional cabling—minimize clutter and maximize reliability

Real-World PoE Deployment Example

Even under demanding conditions, the USW-Pro-48-POE has enough power headroom to keep your entire infrastructure running smoothly.

🚀 10G Uplinks for Aggregation

As your network scales, uplink bandwidth becomes critical. This switch includes 4 SFP+ ports, each supporting 10 Gigabit fiber connections.

• Ideal for uplinks to network cores, servers, or additional aggregation switches

• Ensures smooth performance even during high data transfer workloads, like:

  • Security camera video offloading

  • Streaming and VoIP traffic

  • Centralized file or media server access

• Compatible with Ubiquiti’s UFiber modules and most third-party 10G SFP+ transceivers

🖥️ Touchscreen & Diagnostics

UniFi doesn’t just focus on performance—it brings design and usability to the forefront.

• A built-in 1.3″ color touchscreen displays:

  • Port status and activity

  • Device temperature

  • Throughput statistics

  • Alerts and errors

• A valuable tool for on-site diagnostics without needing a laptop or console cable

🌐 Centralized Management via UniFi Controller

One of the biggest advantages of the UniFi ecosystem is its single-pane-of-glass management. Through the UniFi Network Controller (local or via UniFi Cloud), users can:

• Configure and manage all UniFi switches, APs, and routers

• View real-time port statistics, link speed, and PoE draw

• Create VLANs, define traffic rules, apply port profiles

• Schedule firmware upgrades and monitor system health

• Create alerts, export logs, and manage network topology visually

The controller can be hosted on a local server, UniFi Cloud Key Gen2 Plus, UniFi Dream Machine Pro, or even in the cloud for remote access.

🔒 Security and Redundancy

For enterprise and mission-critical environments, uptime and security are paramount.

• USP-RPS Support: The USW-Pro-48-POE supports UniFi SmartPower RPS, a redundant power supply system that automatically takes over in case of primary PSU failure.

• Failover & Link Aggregation: Reduce single points of failure with dual uplinks or link aggregation groups (LAGs).

• Secure Management: Role-based access, port isolation, and ACLs protect your core infrastructure.
