The Ubiquiti UniFi Switch Flex (Model: USW-Flex) specification description follows:
The Ubiquiti UniFi Switch Flex (Model: USW-Flex) is a highly versatile, weather-resistant Layer 2 managed Gigabit switch designed for outdoor, industrial, and high-density edge deployments. Engineered to operate in demanding environmental conditions, the switch delivers non-blocking Gigabit switching performance while providing flexible PoE pass-through power for IP surveillance cameras, wireless access points, and IoT devices.
Equipped with 5 total Gigabit RJ45 ports—comprising (1) 802.3bt PoE++ input port and (4) auto-sensing 802.3af PoE output ports—the USW-Flex can deliver up to 46W of total PoE power budget when powered by a 60W PoE++ switch or injector. Fully integrated into the UniFi Network Application, it features a durable, weatherproof outdoor-rated enclosure, flexible mounting options (wall, pole, or magnetic), and silent fanless cooling.
Comprehensive Key Features:
- Flexible PoE Pass-Through Architecture: Powered via 802.3bt PoE++ / 802.3at PoE+ input on Port 1 to supply clean 802.3af PoE output across Ports 2–5.
- Up to 46W Available PoE Output: Delivers up to 46W total PoE budget (when powered via 60W PoE++) or up to 15.4W per individual output port.
- Weatherproof Outdoor Design: Ruggedized polycarbonate housing engineered to withstand adverse weather, rain, and extreme temperature fluctuations.
- Non-Blocking Gigabit Performance: Equipped with 5 total 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports providing 5 Gbps non-blocking line-rate throughput.
- Versatile Mounting Architecture: Includes mounting hardware for seamless surface, wall, pole, or magnetic mounting setups.
- Silent Fanless Cooling: Thermal engineering design operates completely silently without internal moving parts or cooling fans.
- Centralized UniFi Network Management: Native management through the UniFi Network Application for complete network topology visibility, remote provisioning, and traffic monitoring.
