The Ubiquiti UniFi Switch Lite 16 PoE (USW-LITE-16-POE) is a fully managed Layer 2 switch engineered to bring flexible, space-conscious power and connectivity to small-to-medium business networks or premium smart homes. Outfitted with 16 Gigabit RJ45 ports, this highly efficient device features eight auto-sensing 802.3at PoE+ ports that deliver a shared 45W power budget to directly drive UniFi Access Points, Protect security cameras, or VoIP hardware. Housed in a compact, durable polycarbonate chassis with a fanless cooling setup, the Switch Lite 16 operates in complete silence, making it ideal for placement on office desktops, inside retail spaces, or tucked away in living area AV cabinets. It integrates into the ecosystem for swift adoption and remote cloud tracking via the centralised UniFi Network platform.

Please Note: The internal power supply has a maximum rating of 60W, which leaves a dedicated 45W total budget for active PoE devices after factoring in the switch's internal operational headroom.

Key Features

• 8 Ports of Intelligent PoE+ Delivery: Integrates eight auto-sensing 802.3at PoE+ ports alongside eight standard Gigabit data ports, reducing cable clutter by combining power and network feeds.

• Whisper-Quiet Fanless Design: Engineered with an advanced passive thermal management system that completely eliminates fan noise, ensuring zero operational noise pollution.

• Compact, Multi-Surface Mounting: The slim, space-saving form factor includes a custom wall-mount kit out of the box, allowing for neat vertical installations on walls or underneath desks.

• Carrier-Class Layer 2 Switching: Supports core Layer 2 network routing logic, including Spanning Tree Protocols (STP/RSTP), link aggregation (LACP), isolated guest VLAN creation, and custom port rate limits.

• Unified Controller Ecosystem: Offers seamless control via the UniFi Network web software or mobile app, providing a graphical layout for monitoring port speeds, setting schedules, and troubleshooting.
