Consolidate more powered devices on a single switch without sacrificing uplink headroom. The Ubiquiti USW-PRO-24-POE combines 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports with 16 PoE+ ports and 8 PoE++ ports, giving infrastructure teams the flexibility to support mixed endpoint requirements from access points to higher-draw devices. A 400 W PoE budget helps this model serve denser deployments where power planning matters as much as port count. Dual 10G SFP+ uplinks provide a clear path to aggregation or upstream switching, reducing bottlenecks at the edge and preserving performance as the access layer grows. Layer 2 and Layer 3 capability makes it more than a simple access switch. It can support segmented networks that need routing-aware design, while near-silent cooling and the integrated 1.3-inch touch LCM make it practical for rack environments where visibility and acoustics both matter. This is the kind of switch chosen when the network has outgrown entry-level hardware and needs room to scale cleanly.
