Collection: UniFi Standard Switches

Dependable Gigabit and PoE+ switching. No fans, no noise, no fuss.

UniFi Standard switches make it easy to add reliable, managed Gigabit switching to any UniFi network. The range covers 16, 24 and 48-port models, with or without PoE+, and every one shares the same silent, fanless design and straightforward management in the UniFi Network application. They’re a natural fit for small and medium businesses, schools, retail spaces, home offices and home labs that want business-grade control without enterprise-level complexity or cost.

Silent, fanless design

With no fans to hum, rattle or pull in dust, Standard switches run silently. That makes them easy to place in a shared office, a classroom or a wall-mounted network cabinet, and it means one less component that can fail over time. Each switch is housed in a sturdy 1U steel enclosure with an internal power supply and universal 100–240V AC input, so there’s no external power brick to manage. Every model is also NDAA compliant for projects that require it.

Power devices with PoE+

The three PoE models deliver PoE+ at up to 32W per port, so WiFi access points, security cameras, VoIP phones and other PoE devices get power and data over a single Ethernet cable. That means no separate power cabling or adapters at each device, and tidier ceilings, walls and racks. Total PoE budgets range from 42W to 195W, so add up the power draw of the devices you plan to connect and choose a model with headroom to grow.

Simple management in UniFi Network

Every Standard switch is managed in the UniFi Network application, on a UniFi Cloud Gateway or other UniFi console, so your switching sits in the same dashboard as your gateway and WiFi, with no licensing fees. Adopt a new switch in a few clicks, then manage it on site or remotely. You also get the Layer 2 tools a growing network relies on: VLANs to keep staff, guest and IoT traffic apart, LACP link aggregation, STP/RSTP and loop protection, IGMP snooping, 802.1X authentication, DHCP snooping, ACLs, port isolation, port mirroring, storm control and Voice VLAN with LLDP-MED. A 1.3-inch front-panel touchscreen shows device status at a glance, right at the rack.

Gigabit performance and SFP uplinks

Every RJ45 port is Gigabit, backed by non-blocking performance and up to 104 Gbps of switching capacity. Built-in 1G SFP ports (two on the 16 and 24-port models, four on the 48-port models) let you uplink to your gateway or core switch with an optical module for longer runs, or with an SFP to RJ45 adapter for copper.
