Ubiquiti ES-48-500W EdgeSwitch 48-Port Managed PoE+ Network Switch

The Ubiquiti EdgeSwitch ES-48-500W delivers enterprise-grade network switching with 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 500W PoE+ power budget. Designed for growing networks requiring reliable performance and intelligent switching capabilities, this fully managed switch provides non-blocking throughput and advanced Layer-2/Layer-3 functionality.

High-Performance Switching Architecture

With 70 Gbps non-blocking throughput, the ES-48-500W processes traffic on all ports simultaneously at line rate without packet loss. The switch features 48 Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports plus two SFP and two SFP+ ports for high-capacity 10 Gbps uplinks, enabling flexible fiber connectivity for backbone connections and long-distance runs.

Flexible PoE+ Power Delivery

Auto-sensing IEEE 802.3af/at PoE+ automatically detects and powers compatible devices across all ports. The 500W power budget supports IP cameras, VoIP phones, wireless access points, and other PoE devices. For legacy equipment, configurable 24V Passive PoE can be manually enabled per port through the EdgeSwitch Configuration Interface.

Advanced Management and Features

The EdgeSwitch Configuration Interface provides intuitive graphical management for administrators, while advanced users can access industry-standard CLI through telnet and SSH. The sophisticated operating system includes MSTP/RSTP/STP protocols, VLAN configuration with Private VLAN and Voice VLAN support, Link Aggregation, DHCP Snooping, IGMP Snooping, and comprehensive security features including TACACS+, RADIUS, 802.1X, MAC Filtering, and ACL.

Enterprise Networking Capabilities

Layer-3 routing capability with Static Routing and Policy-Based Routing extends functionality beyond basic switching. DiffServ and CoS support enables quality of service prioritization for latency-sensitive applications. The rack-mountable design integrates seamlessly into standard 19-inch equipment racks.

- Non-Blocking Throughput Switching Performance
- Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 and SFP+/SFP Ports
- Auto-Sensing IEEE 802.3af/at PoE

Advanced Switching Technology for the Masses
Build and expand your network with Ubiquiti EdgeSwitch™, part of the EdgeMAX line of products. The EdgeSwitch is a fully managed, PoE+ Gigabit switch, delivering robust performance and intelligent switching for growing networks.

The EdgeSwitch offers an extensive suite of advanced Layer-2 switching features and protocols, and also provides Layer-3 routing capability.

Switching Performance
The EdgeSwitch offers the forwarding capacity to simultaneously process traffic on all ports at line rate without any packet loss.

For its total, non-blocking throughput, the 24-port models support up to 26 Gbps, while the 48-port models support up to 70 Gbps.

PoE+ Flexibility
The EdgeSwitch models are available with 24 or 48 PoE Gigabit Ethernet ports of auto-sensing IEEE 802.3af/at or configurable 24V Passive PoE to simplify your infrastructure.

By default, the EdgeSwitch automatically detects 802.3af/at devices so they automatically receive PoE. For 24V Passive PoE devices, manually enable 24V passive PoE using the EdgeSwitch Configuration
Interface.

Fiber Connectivity
The EdgeSwitch provides fiber connectivity options for your growing networks. The 24-port models include two SFP ports, providing up to 1 Gbps uplinks.

For high-capacity uplinks, the 48-port models include two SFP and two SFP+ ports, providing up to 10 Gbps uplinks.

Comprehensive User Interface
Designed for convenient management, the EdgeSwitch Configuration Interface allows administrators to configure and monitor switch features in a graphical user interface.

For advanced users, an industry-standard command-line interface (CLI) is available through telnet and SSH.

Powerful Functionality
The EdgeSwitch uses a sophisticated operating system that provides basic switching features, PoE configuration per port, and a variety of advanced features including:
- MSTP/RSTP/STP
- VLAN, Private VLAN, Voice VLAN
- Link Aggregation
- DHCP Snooping, IGMP Snooping
- TACACS+, RADIUS, 802.1X, MAC Filtering, ACL
- DiffServ, CoS
- Static Routing, Policy-Based Routing
