The Ubiquiti UniFi Switch Ultra (USW-Ultra) is a highly versatile, compact Layer 2 Gigabit switch designed for those who need a lot of power in a small footprint. It’s particularly unique because of its flexible power input options, which allow it to act as everything from a desktop switch to a remote PoE extender.
- Ultra-Compact Form Factor: It’s roughly the size of a smartphone, making it easy to hide behind a TV, under a desk, or in a small junction box.
- Versatile Mounting: It comes with a mounting plate that supports wall mounting and even has a magnetic mount option for metal surfaces.
- Fanless Design: The switch is silent, which is ideal for office environments or home theaters.
- PoE Passthrough: Because it can be powered via PoE++ and then provide PoE+ to 7 other devices, it is a perfect "daisy-chain" solution for areas where running multiple new cables is difficult.
