Ubiquiti UniFi Pro Max 16-Port Layer 3 Managed Switch

The USW-PRO-MAX-16 is a 16-port Layer 3 Etherlighting switch designed for professional networking environments requiring advanced management capabilities and flexible connectivity options. This fanless switch delivers 42 Gbps total non-blocking throughput with 84 Gbps switching capacity.

Port Configuration and Connectivity

The switch features a versatile port configuration: 12 Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports for standard connectivity, 4 multi-gigabit 2.5 GbE RJ45 ports for bandwidth-intensive applications, and 2 10G SFP+ ports for fiber uplinks or high-speed connections. This combination provides 62.496 Mpps forwarding rate for efficient packet processing.

Etherlighting Technology

Etherlighting ports illuminate to indicate port location, connection speed and link status, and native VLAN/network assignment. This visual feedback simplifies network troubleshooting and management in rack or desktop deployments.

Layer 3 Routing Capabilities

Advanced Layer 3 features include inter-VLAN routing between networks on the same switch, static routing between local networks, DHCP relay functionality, and network isolation with ACLs. The switch handles DHCP for locally-managed networks, eliminating the need for external routing equipment in many configurations.

Layer 2 Management Features

Comprehensive Layer 2 capabilities include IGMP snooping, STP/RSTP with priorities, port isolation, storm control, voice VLAN, port mirroring, LACP port aggregation, and 802.1X control. Additional features include DHCP snooping/guarding, LLDP-MED, jumbo frame support, and proprietary loop protection.

Installation and Design

The switch measures 325.1 x 160 x 43.7 mm and weighs 1.95 kg. It supports versatile desktop, wall, and rack mounting options (rack mount kit sold separately). The fanless cooling system ensures silent operation, making it suitable for noise-sensitive environments. The 1.3-inch touchscreen LCM display provides local management access.

Power and Specifications

Powered by a Type-C adapter providing 5V at 25W maximum consumption, the switch operates in ambient temperatures from -5 to 40°C and humidity levels of 10 to 90% noncondensing. The SGCC steel enclosure provides durability. CE, FCC, and IC certified.
