48-Port Gigabit Layer 2 Switch

The Ubiquiti Networks USW-48 is a rackmount managed switch designed for medium to large networks that need silent, reliable Layer 2 connectivity. It provides 48 Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports and four 1G SFP uplink ports in a fanless chassis.

1G Uplink Speed and 52 Gbps Throughput

All downlink ports operate at 1 Gbps and the four SFP uplinks are also limited to 1 Gbps. The switch delivers a total non-blocking throughput of 52 Gbps with a switching capacity of 104 Gbps and a forwarding rate of 77.376 Mpps.

No Power over Ethernet Support

This model does not supply PoE power to connected devices such as access points or IP cameras. Buyers who need to power endpoints over the network cable must choose a different switch.

Questions about this item

How do I choose between the 48 RJ45 ports and the 4 SFP ports on this switch?

Use the 48 GbE RJ45 ports for copper connections to endpoints and the 4 SFP ports for fibre uplinks or links to other switches; both run at 1 Gbps.

What does the 52 Gbps non-blocking throughput mean for daily traffic?

It means all 48 RJ45 ports and 4 SFP ports can run at full 1 Gbps simultaneously without internal congestion.

What limits do the 1G SFP ports place on uplink speed?

Each SFP port caps at 1 Gbps, so uplinks cannot exceed 1 Gbps per port unless you aggregate multiple ports with LACP.
