It doesn't get as extremely warm as the US-8-60 but they all get warm (some get hot) but it also depends on how many POE devices you have on it. But there are some that get even warmer from Ubiquiti.... The best heater so far was the US-8-150W if you put it on the table you can keep your coffee warm ;)
Hey
No, the switch cannot be operated via Pose PD, but it does have PoE+. If you are looking for a small switch that can be operated via PoE, you can take a look at the Flex Mini.
The two are not much different. US 8 60 W is made of metal, has a slightly higher switching capacity, but is 4 years older. Because the USW-LITE 8Poe is much newer, I decided on it in the summer. It runs without problems, can be administered centrally and you can assign individual ports to VLANs. However, only 4 ports are PoE and only when it is operated via a power supply unit.
There is a 1.5m cable with an L-shaped plug between the power supply unit and the switch.
As I was supplied with a German mains cable, I replaced it with a CH cable of the length of my choice.
8-tung, the power cable has a Mickey Mouse plug.
I cannot tell you for sure if this switch is the successor to the US-8-60W, but I believe that it is not, because unlike the US-8-60W, this switch only serves four of the eight ports with POE. However, I can tell you with certainty that the operating temperature of this unit is well within acceptable limits.
Yes, the Ubiquiti USW-Lite-8-PoE switch supports multiple VLANs and trunk configurations.
- The switch allows the configuration of VLANs and the tagging of ports for different VLANs.
- It is possible to create custom port profiles that allow any VLANs to be tagged on trunk interfaces.
- The switches can also be configured as trunk ports to connect multiple VLANs between the switches.
This allows the USW-Lite-8-PoE switch to configure multiple networks on the LAN ports and manage them via VLANs and trunk ports.
Hello,
I have two three basic questions about using the USW-LITE-8-POE:
I would like to operate "only" from the router(Swisscom) of the flat next door to me and from me then with the Unifi Switch USW-LITE-8-POE three AP's via PoE, a TV box, and 3-4 more "Lan sockets".
I would then like to make some configurations via my Windows computer, such as switching off the APs at night (I think that would be self-hosting).
It would be even better to control this entirely via my smartphone. But if I understand correctly, this requires a UniFi console (Dream Machine, Dream Router, Cloud Key Gen2 Plus etc.). Could that be the case?
Would I then be best served with the Ubiquiti USW-LITE-8-POE in terms of price/performance, or would you recommend another product?
I would be very grateful for your support! :)
Greetings Rafael
Ports can be managed or activated and deactivated from the mobile or Windows computer. However, it is questionable whether you want to switch off the WLAN with the mobile phone as you then no longer have WLAN reception with the mobile phone to configure it. Then you would need a Cloudkey or Dreammachine to reactivate the APs (via mobile phone data connection over the Internet) by mobile phone. In my opinion, this is not necessary with a PC. It may be easier to connect a timer to the power supply of the switch and switch off the APs and the switch. I hope this has helped.
Hello everyone,
I recently bought the USW-LITE-8-POE switch.
Here is my plan:
I go from our FritzBox with a network cable (cat 7) into the switch. From the switch I go via two POE ports to two access points (U6+) which are then supplied with power and Internet via network cable or? And is it sufficient if 1 network cable goes from the WLAN router into the switch or do I also need a connection to the router for each device that is connected to the switch. So with 2 access points = 1 connection to the router or 2 connections?
