Ubiquiti USW-24-POE | UniFi Switch 24 PoE | 26 Gbps Switch
A fanless 24-port PoE switch for wiring closets and small server rooms where noise matters and port count is starting to bite.
Why this one
- Sixteen ports deliver up to 32W of PoE+ each — enough for Wi-Fi 6 access points, IP cameras and VoIP phones without a separate injector per device.
- The fanless design means no moving parts and no fan noise, so it's a practical fit for open offices, reception areas, or any space where rack noise is noticeable.
- The 1.3" touchscreen lets you check port status and PoE draw directly on the unit without opening a browser — useful during initial setup or troubleshooting.
- Two 1G SFP uplink ports let you connect to an aggregation switch or fibre run without burning a copper port on the uplink.
Good fit if you're building out a UniFi network with a mix of PoE devices — access points, cameras, phones — and need a quiet, rack-mounted switch that UniFi Network can manage alongside everything else.
Worth considering something else if your PoE load is heavy: the 95W total is shared across all 16 PoE+ ports, so a mix of power-hungry devices like the U6 Enterprise and PTZ cameras can exhaust it quickly — the USW-48-POE carries a higher aggregate PoE budget and more ports for larger deployments.
What you'll also need
A UniFi gateway or Dream Machine to manage the switch through UniFi Network, Cat5e or better to each PoE device, and a 1U rack space — the switch ships with rack ears and mounts to depths between 400mm and 1,200mm.
