Ubiquiti UniFi Pro Max 48 PoE Network Switch - USW-Pro-Max-48-POE

The USW-Pro-Max-48-PoE is a 48-port Layer 3 Etherlighting switch engineered for enterprise networks requiring high-power PoE++ output and multi-gigabit connectivity. With 720W total PoE availability and 112 Gbps non-blocking throughput, this managed switch handles demanding network infrastructure deployments.

Port Configuration and Connectivity

This switch delivers versatile connectivity with 16 x 2.5 GbE ports (8 PoE+ and 8 PoE++), 32 x GbE ports (24 PoE+ and 8 PoE++), and 4 x 10G SFP+ ports for high-speed uplinks. The switching capacity of 224 Gbps ensures data-intensive operations run without bottlenecks.

PoE++ Power Delivery

The USW-Pro-Max-48-PoE provides 720W total PoE availability across 48 ports, supporting PoE (15.4W), PoE+ (30W), and PoE++ (60W) standards. This power budget accommodates high-power devices including PTZ cameras, WiFi 6 access points, and VoIP systems. DC power backup ready functionality ensures network continuity during power events.

Etherlighting Technology

Etherlighting ports illuminate to identify port location, speed/link status, and native VLAN/network assignment. When paired with UniFi Etherlighting Patch Cables, this feature simplifies network management and troubleshooting in dense rack environments.

Layer 3 Routing Capabilities

As a Layer 3 switch, the USW-Pro-Max-48-PoE handles inter-VLAN routing, static routing, and advanced network segmentation without requiring external routers. This reduces latency and simplifies network architecture for multi-site deployments.

Management and Interface

The 1.3-inch touchscreen LCM display provides on-device configuration and monitoring. Ethernet in-band management integrates seamlessly with UniFi Network Controllers for centralized administration. The SGCC steel enclosure measures 442.4 x 399.6 x 43.7 mm and weighs 6.3 kg with mounting brackets.
