The Ubiquiti UniFi USW-Flex is a versatile 5-port managed Layer 2 Gigabit switch designed for maximum deployment flexibility in both indoor and outdoor environments. This compact switch features one GbE PoE++ input port that powers the device itself, plus four GbE PoE+ output ports capable of powering connected devices like access points, cameras, and door controllers. The unique design allows the switch to be powered via PoE++ from an upstream switch or with a 60W PoE adapter (sold separately), eliminating the need for a dedicated power outlet and enabling installation in remote or challenging locations.

• Flexible power options: Delivers 46W total PoE availability when powered by PoE++, 20W with PoE+, or 8W with standard PoE input
• Indoor/outdoor rated: Weather-resistant construction allows deployment in exposed locations where traditional switches can’t operate
• UniFi ecosystem integration: Seamlessly managed through the UniFi Network Controller for centralized configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting
• Compact form factor: Small footprint enables discreet mounting near access points, at building exteriors, or in tight equipment spaces

This switch is ideal for extending network connectivity and PoE power to remote areas of your property without running dedicated electrical circuits. Perfect for adding UniFi access points in warehouses, retail environments, outdoor patios, parking areas, or multi-building campuses, the USW-Flex solves the “last mile” connectivity challenge with professional-grade reliability. Its Layer 2 switching capabilities provide VLAN support for network segmentation, while UniFi’s intuitive management interface makes configuration straightforward even for those new to managed networking equipment.
