Pros

Us-8 is a poe-powered switch with one poe pass through port. Also has poe passthrough so you can throw an single cable ap on the end. My house has ethernet run to 1/3 the rooms and these switches help bring the wired coverage up in each area. Use thes...  Read More

Easy to configure and rock solid so far. Works great as a simple switch and is a no brainerd if you're already invested in the unifi setup. This unmanaged switch is great.

Ubiquiti products are just on another level entirely. It is silly to use anything else. I highly recommend their products. Great little boxes with good insight.

Easy to install into existing unifi network. Easily integrates with the unifi software. Full control over who/what is connecting is part of the unifi functionality and a great plus without adding admin hassle.

Plastic pieces that'll bolt to a rackmount at each end. Solid, metallic build. It is like being reborn.

Super easy to add to existing ubnt network great product for poeafter several weeks of heavy use.


Excellent switch, its also able to power a unifi ap-ac-lr using its own power supply and with poe port set on pass-through


The instructions don’t match how the setup menu works after update and it’s definitely not intuitive.


After making sure i had poe+ feeding this unit (us-8-150w), i simply had to go into the config and turn poe on for the output p...  Read More

These are great little switches for the price.


Reliable managed switch at a great price.

The poe version was too expensive for my taste.

Quick delivery had me a satisfied client.

Competitiveness


I did research on different switches and found this to be the most reliable for the price point.


I had a perfectly fine switch, but i recently switched to ubiquiti aps and their usg firewall device so i figured that this swi...  Read More


If you aren’t tech savvy and/or extremely patient, i would consider possibly going with a different company.


Ubiquiti chat was less supportive than their user forums but their quality is good so it all worked out.

    Look at it this way if one component breaks then you’re replacing a 100 component instead of a 2300 all in one router that are so common these days

    They’re basically plastic pieces that’ll bolt to a rackmount at each end with a space cut out for the device

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However there is a plethora of information out there on forums and there is even an option for live chat help in the unifi controller


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I’ve never used the live chat so i can’t give an opinion one way or another regarding its usefulness
