User Manual
FAQ
What are the port speeds and types on the Ubiquiti USW-Pro-Max-24 switch?
The switch provides 24 total ports: 16 are standard Gigabit Ethernet (1GbE), 8 are 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet (2.5GbE) for higher-speed devices, and it includes 2 dedicated 10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ expansion slots. The SFP+ slots support either fiber or copper transceivers for uplink connections, offering flexibility in backbone connectivity.
Does this switch support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
No, the USW-Pro-Max-24 does not provide Power over Ethernet. It is a non-PoE switch designed for data connectivity only. If you require PoE to power devices like access points or IP cameras, you would need to consider a PoE-enabled switch model or use separate PoE injectors.
What does Layer 3 switching capability mean for this switch?
Layer 3 switching means the switch can perform basic routing functions between different IP subnets or VLANs without needing a separate router. This improves network performance by reducing latency for inter-VLAN traffic and allows for more advanced network segmentation, access control, and routing protocols directly on the switch.
How many SFP+ slots are available, and what can they be used for?
There are 2 SFP+ slots on this switch. These can be used for high-speed uplinks to other switches, routers, or servers using either 10GbE fiber optic or copper SFP+ transceivers. They are ideal for aggregating traffic from the switch's 24 downstream ports or connecting to core network infrastructure.
What are the rack mounting specifications for this switch?
The switch is designed for standard 19-inch rack mounting and occupies 1 rack unit (1U) of vertical space. Its dimensions are 1.73" H x 17.40" W x 12.80" D (44 x 442 x 325 mm), and it weighs approximately 9.26 lb (4200 g). It includes mounting ears compatible with rack screws for secure installation in data center or network closet racks.
What management features are included with this managed switch?
The switch offers comprehensive management features including Access Control Lists (ACL) for traffic filtering, IGMP snooping for multicast optimization, flow control, port mirroring for monitoring, VLAN support for network segmentation, loop protection, a reset button, DHCP relay, and DHCP snooping. These features provide granular control over network configuration, security, and performance monitoring.
