The USW-Enterprise-48-PoE represents Ubiquiti’s flagship switching solution for high-density deployments requiring advanced features and exceptional power delivery. This fully managed Layer 3 switch combines enterprise-grade capabilities with the intuitive UniFi management experience, making it ideal for organizations deploying modern Wi-Fi 6 access points, IP cameras, VoIP phones, and other powered devices at scale. With its distinctive 1.3″ color touchscreen, administrators gain instant visibility into system status and connection health without needing to access the controller, streamlining troubleshooting and daily operations.

• 48 x 2.5GbE PoE+ ports deliver the bandwidth needed for next-generation Wi-Fi 6 access points while providing 802.3at power to each connected device
• 720W total PoE budget ensures ample power capacity for high-density deployments without requiring additional injectors or power supplies
• 4 x 10G SFP+ uplink ports provide high-speed fiber connectivity to your network backbone, eliminating bottlenecks for aggregated traffic
• Layer 3 routing capabilities enable advanced network segmentation, inter-VLAN routing, and complex topology designs without requiring separate routing hardware
• DC power backup-ready design allows for seamless integration with UPS systems to maintain network uptime during power disruptions

This switch excels in environments where 1GbE has become a limitation—particularly for organizations deploying multiple Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 6E access points that can saturate traditional gigabit connections. The 2.5GbE ports provide the perfect middle ground between standard gigabit and expensive 10-gigabit infrastructure, delivering 2.5x the bandwidth at each port while maintaining compatibility with existing cabling. When combined with UniFi’s centralized management platform, the USW-Enterprise-48-PoE offers the extensive suite of Layer 2 switching protocols including port mirroring, link aggregation, and advanced VLAN configurations—all accessible through an intuitive interface that removes the complexity typically associated with enterprise-class switching equipment.
