This switch supports up to 16 groups of eight network ports, which may be configured to form high-bandwidth connections to compatible devices.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Does this require an Aruba account and/or cloud-based management? I need to set up an air-gapped network and all network management/configuration needs to happen locally. This would be attached via a 1Gbps port on an existing managed router.

A: Yes, the Aruba Instant On AP22 Dual-Band Access Point with 12V Power Adapter require an Aruba account for setup. A local connection can suffice as well. More information can be found at https://www.arubainstanton.com/techdocs/en/content/get-started/application-login.htm

Q: 2. How many of the 16-port switch's ports support PoE+?

A: All ports *support* PoE+ but I suspect that's not what you're asking. The max per-port power is 34.2W and the max *shared* power is 150W so you could in theory be limited to 4 usable ports if your individual devices were drawing 34W. In the real world you'll need to account for the actual peak power draw of each PoE+ device. PoE+ is 15W+ (otherwise it's just PoE) so with the most *minimal* PoE+ devices drawing 15W+ you might be able to use 9 or 10. If you want to fully load the switch with power hungry devices then you probably want one of the 24-port switches with more available power.

Q: 3. Would this be good for gaming on multiple devices, streaming on twitch, and other workloads at the same time? would my ping go up ingame?

A: This device will handle gaming workloads without any issues. It is a business class device designed for higher throughput.

Q: 4. Does the USW-PRO-MAX-48 (not the POE version) have any fans (is it fanless)?

A: The Ubiquiti Networks Pro Max 48-Port 2.5G / 1G Managed Network Switch (non-PoE) is fanless.

Q: 5. Can 2 of these be mounted side by side with the included brackets?

A: No, the included brackets of the Ubiquiti Networks EdgeSwitch 8-Port 150-Watt Managed PoE+ Gigabit Switch with SFP BH #UBES8150W do not allow for side by side mounting.

Q: 6. Is this v1 or v2?

A: The Ubiquiti Networks US-24 24-Port UniFi Managed Gigabit Switch with SFP BH #UBUS24 is V1.

Q: 7. is the switch configured with a web browser of the controller software?

A: The Switch will try to auto setup its IP via DHCP if that fails it will default to 192.168.1.2. You can use that address to use the interface.

Q: 8. Will the network port work on a 1 Gbps connection?

A: Yes, the HPE Networking Instant On AP25 Dual-Band Access Point's network port is a 2.5 GbE port, so it can support and exceed data rates of 1 Gbps.

Q: 9. Does this auto sense 48 volt POE devices also?

A: Yes, the Ubiquiti Networks EdgeSwitch ES-48-750W Managed PoE+ Gigabit Switches with SFP BH #UBES48750W has auto-sensing PoE.

Q: 10. What is the hardware version? v1 or v1.60?

A: Unfortunately, we are unable to check the serial, batch, firmware or OS version of the TP-Link TL-SX3008F JetStream 8-Port SFP+ 10GE Managed Switch BH #TPTLSX3008F.
