The USW-Pro-Max-16 is a sophisticated Layer 3 switch that brings Ubiquiti’s innovative Etherlighting™ technology to your network infrastructure. This 16-port switch combines versatility and performance with its mix of connectivity options and intelligent port illumination system that helps identify port location, speed/link status, and native VLAN/network assignments at a glance. The fanless design ensures silent operation, making it suitable for noise-sensitive environments like offices, studios, or home installations where professional-grade switching is required without the distraction of fan noise.

• Flexible port configuration: Four 2.5 GbE ports for bandwidth-intensive devices, twelve Gigabit Ethernet ports for standard connectivity, and two 10G SFP+ uplinks for high-speed backbone connections
• Layer 3 routing capabilities: Advanced inter-VLAN routing and network segmentation without requiring a separate gateway device
• Etherlighting™ technology: Illuminated ports provide instant visual feedback on network status when paired with UniFi Etherlighting Patch Cables
• Versatile deployment options: Desktop, wall, or rack mounting (with optional accessory) to fit any installation scenario

This switch is ideal for small to medium business deployments, advanced home networks, or distributed office locations where multi-gigabit connectivity is becoming essential for modern workloads. The 2.5 GbE ports are perfectly positioned for connecting WiFi 6/6E access points, high-performance workstations, or NAS devices that can benefit from speeds beyond traditional Gigabit Ethernet. Combined with the UniFi Network application’s intuitive management interface, the USW-Pro-Max-16 delivers enterprise-class features including VLAN configuration, traffic monitoring, and port profiles without the complexity typically associated with managed Layer 3 switches.
