Ubiquiti UniFi Switch Pro-24 PoE
24 Ports
For me as a home user perfectly suitable, in conjunction with the UniFi Dream Machine Pro and the UniFi AP-AC-HD which are distributed throughout the house. These do not need another power outlet thanks to PoE+ as well as the 6x Axis IP cameras also with PoE+. An investment that pays off in the long run.
On each floor of the house a UniFi Switch Pro-24 PoE (Not suitable for the bedroom!) was connected via fiber. In the basement the Synology NAS which thanks to multiple ports for each floor 1 port assigned and 1 port for the surveillance cameras (The Dream Machine Pro also has a Surveillance function but only for UniFi cameras), also was a
Raspberry Pi 4 8G Model B as Pi-Hole DNS server.
Thanks to several DHCP servers, the entire home automation and surveillance cameras can access their own IP addresses, so these devices are separated from the "private" environment.
All in all a good product. Except: @Digitec please PLEASE ! puts but for this price in the future a T13 --> apparatus cable with now the device is delivered with a Schuko --> apparatus cable.

I installed the switch in my 19 inch server rack today. Previously Netgear unmanaged. There were frequent hang-ups with large files (30-50GB) that were moved, and network traffic dropouts.
The switch is super fast. The integration was easy thanks to the controller software on the Synology 218+. Only then does the switch make sense. It has a fan that provides additional cooling for the components in the server cabinet. I have four Nano HDs APs on it and a U6 Range Extender. My entire home network runs much faster! Less delay and everything runs faster. With the knowledge I have today, I would have bought Ubiquiti extensively right after building the house and not just the APs.
But there is one drawback:
The switch is very deep. With 28.8 cm and the Schuko to C14 mains cable (power cable), it is simply far too narrow. So I had to tinker and put the switch 2 cm in front of the fixings. I ordered a power cable with an angled plug to make up the 2 cm and put the switch back. I would have wished for that from Ubiquiti!

Very good, stable products that are subject to strong price fluctuations.

Probably this product, as far as the 240 VAC power supply is concerned, was developed for the EU in 110 VAC and adapted for us! It's just a guess on my part, but this appliance had to be replaced after a year's operation, and to make sure that my installation didn't stop again, I bought a spare.
