Ubiquiti UniFi USW-Pro-Max-24 Switch

The Ubiquiti UniFi USW-Pro-Max-24 is a high-performance 24-port Layer 3 managed switch that brings multi-gigabit speed and enterprise-class functionality to modern networks. Equipped with 24 dedicated 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet ports, this switch offers elevated throughput ideal for high-density work environments, digital production facilities, and growing business infrastructures that require more than just standard Gigabit performance.

Built as part of Ubiquiti’s Etherlighting™ series, the USW-Pro-Max-24 includes innovative LED indicators above each port that visually display live utilization and link status. This allows IT personnel to instantly identify port activity and bandwidth levels at a glance, reducing the need for frequent log-in-based checks. The Etherlighting™ system is particularly helpful in dynamic workspaces where active monitoring is key.

This switch supports Layer 3 routing functions including static routing and inter-VLAN communication, enabling advanced network segmentation and traffic optimization. Whether used for departmental segmentation, secure guest access, or media network isolation, the USW-Pro-Max-24 provides the flexibility to adapt to diverse infrastructure needs.

Its fanless design ensures silent operation, making it ideal for quiet environments such as offices, conference rooms, or education spaces. Despite its compact footprint, the switch is designed for rack-mount installation, allowing it to integrate neatly into IT cabinets or networking racks.

The USW-Pro-Max-24 integrates seamlessly with the UniFi Network Controller, which offers centralized management of UniFi switches, gateways, and access points. Admins can configure VLANs, monitor real-time port traffic, apply traffic shaping policies, and perform firmware updates all through an intuitive dashboard. This centralized control minimizes administrative overhead and ensures consistent policy enforcement across the network.

With support for PoE on select ports (model dependent), this switch can power compatible devices such as UniFi access points, IP cameras, and VoIP phones—reducing the need for separate power adapters and simplifying cable runs. Its 2.5G capability also helps maximize performance when connected to WiFi 6 or WiFi 7 access points, ensuring that wireless bandwidth is fully supported by the wired infrastructure.
