Ubiquiti USW-FLEX-2.5G-8 UniFi Flex 2.5G Managed Switch
The Ubiquiti USW-FLEX-2.5G-8 delivers enterprise-grade 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity in an ultra-compact form factor. This 8-port managed switch features a 10 GbE RJ45/SFP+ combination uplink port, providing flexible high-speed backbone connectivity for demanding network environments.
Flexible Power Options
Power the switch using either USB Type-C (5V DC, 3A) or PoE+ (802.3at), offering deployment flexibility without requiring nearby AC outlets. The compact polycarbonate enclosure supports multiple mounting options including desktop, wall, DIN rail, and magnetic mounting, making it ideal for space-constrained installations.
High-Performance Switching
With 60 Gbps switching capacity and 30 Gbps total non-blocking throughput, the USW-FLEX-2.5G-8 handles bandwidth-intensive applications with ease. The 45 Mpps forwarding rate ensures minimal latency for real-time data transmission. Eight 2.5 GbE RJ45 ports provide ample connectivity for WiFi 6/6E access points, NAS devices, workstations, and other high-bandwidth equipment.
Advanced Network Management
Full UniFi network management integration enables centralized configuration and monitoring through the UniFi Network Controller. Support for 256 VLANs, 4000 MAC address table size, STP/RSTP, port mirroring, port isolation, and loop protection provides enterprise-level network segmentation and security. Additional features include egress rate limiting, flow control, storm control, multicast and broadcast rate limiting, and jumbo frame support.
