Control Cloud Switch

Perfect for my simple needs....POE-powered and can be used as an unmanaged switch. If you want to be fancy, install a cloud key for a little more management.

I recently purchased this as an alternative to Unifi and wow...I really like the options and ability to edit this switch. The only thing I did not like is the cloud management. I prefer local because I don't like putting my stuff at risk by going through the internet. We have enough vulnerabilities in our networks, why risk it even more. Besides the options for management is better for local than the cloud. If you can get this, go get it...great switch.

Mounted the switch and powered it up. Synced with Cloud key with no issues. Configuration software was easy to navigate and we love the ability to see everything from the app or computer interface.

Remote location doesn't have a POE switch. This powers the Cloud Key just fine. Will buy these as needed.

Started out with Unifis Cloud Key Plus and their switch then realized what you could do with their software. Added this access point and the their mesh antenna. Wow this stuff is quality and affordable.

Needed a USG and you can't get them right now, so I bought this. Very happy with it. About the same price as a USG, Cloud Key and switch purchased separately. Don't need the security aspect right now, so I put off buying a hard drive. Would be nice if the switch was powered, but otherwise great. Replaced 3 smaller boxes with 1 large box. Cleaner appearance. Hopefully it will last for years like the individual boxes tend to.

Mounted the switch and powered it up. Synced with Cloud key with no issues. Configuration software was easy to navigate and we love the ability to see everything from the app or computer interface. Great to stay in the Ubiquity Family for easy management. Used this switch for a small office with only one network drop. Added additional points of access for that office.

Excellent switch, great build quality. This is a great switch made better by the fact it can be monitored and managed to a certain point via the cloud key (another must have).

So I got this switch along with a cloud key and an access point.  Before long I was making vlans, using POE for the AP, and running 4 SSIDs on one AP using 4 different VLANs.  Its phenomenal!

The switch is great. I mean it's just a switch but the management features via the cloud key and portal app are also super. POE / power over ethernet, didn't realize how useful that can be. Will consider getting a POE phone and other devices soon perhaps too, now that we can! Other great things are the entire Ubiquiti solution we bought is working flawlessly when put all together. We have it all connected: the gateway router + 8 port managed switch + ACPRO + ACMESH + cloud key. It's just amazing really with the seamless hop / hop-back between the access points, and the reporting features and iPhone app are also very cool!
