Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. On the 8 port passive POE switch, could you power a POE device and a POE+ device?

A: The Ubiquiti Networks US-8 UniFi 8-Port Gigabit PoE Compliant Managed Switch can only supply PoE power via its single PoE passthough port.

Q: 2. Does this switch additional power supply if already connected by PoE input?

A: No, if you connect this switch with POE, you do not need to use the additional power supply.

Q: 3. Can it be powered from the second port of UAP-AC-PRO?

A: No, the second port on the UAP-AC-PRO would not pass the power through to the Ubiquiti Networks UniFi Switch Flex 5-Port Managed Gigabit PoE Network Switch BH #UBUSWFLEX.

Q: 4. Can a port be downgraded to 24v passive while other ports remain 802.3af like the larger Unify switches or only able to do 48v?

A: Depending on the mode the Ubiquiti Networks UniFi Switch Flex 5-Port Managed Gigabit PoE Network Switch BH #UBUSWFLEX supports 44-57v PoE.

Q: 5. Does this make your internet faster with a separate router and Modem?

A: The Ubiquiti Networks UniFi Lite 8-Port Gigabit PoE+ Compliant Managed Switch will not improve internet connection speeds, however, it may improve speeds between devices on the network if your current switch has less internal throughput.

Q: 6. Can you power a NSM5 nanostation with a USW-Flex?

A: Yes, the Ubiquiti Networks UniFi Switch Flex 5-Port Managed Gigabit PoE Network Switch can power the Ubiquiti Networks airMAX NanoStationM 5 GHz Outdoor Router.

Q: 7. what software do i use to manage this switch.? can it be managed via web browser with an IP address?

A: As others have already said, you would need the UniFi controller.

Q: 8. What power adapter can I use with the USW-Flex Switch? I think the PoE-50-60W. Yes?

A: Yes, that is correct.

Q: 9. Does this unit have a fan?

A: No. The case is used as a heatsink and becomes extremely hot to the touch.

Q: 10. Can the POE ports (5-8) have the POE turned off?

A: YES. Two ways:1) As others have mentioned, the ports are auto sensing, meaning you can plug in a non PoE device and it'll work without PoE and won't damage the device.2) From the Unifi Controller (I'm running v5.3.11), you can click on Devices | your switch | Ports | Edit (pencil) port | PoE | Off (the other option is PoE ).
