Ubiquiti Switches

Stock quantity for POE - 80 per model is the average for switches, all sizes.
Non POE? Maybe 2 or 3?
Seems if people were buying them out that they would order more.
-
I would suggest replacing one first and making sure you like them before replacing them all. Ubuiquti makes cheap/decent stuff usually but they have done several duds too.

www.4gon.co.uk is where we buy ours from. Seem to have good stock, well at least when i'm buying stuff.

What the difference between the EdgeSwitch and Unifi Switch?
-
One is POE, the other is not.
That's the only difference I see listed.

Missed one is white one is black
Are they both controlled and configured through the Unifi controller??
-
Yes, both are fully managed.
If they are not, I'll be very unhappy when these units are delivered.

No, the Unifi line is its own animal.

Yes, the Unifi line is like Meraki, it's all centrally controlled through a controller. And they are all white. The non-Unifi equipment is traditional and managed traditionally.

That's a shame. So to buy into the single pane of glass management, they make you spend a lot more.
If they supplied a non POE version it would almost be worth it.

It requires more. The devices are slower, too. If you look, there are better specs on the non-Unifi gear. There is a reason we don't use the Unifi ourselves, only makes sense at a certain scale and for a certain kind of company. Don't believe that the Unifi do 10GigE, either.
The Unifi line is also newer.

Edgeswitch. 48 port lite
Non-Blocking Throughput: 70 Gbps
Switching Capacity: 140 Gbps
Forwarding Rate: 104.16 MppsUnifi Switch 48 port 500W
Total Non-Blocking Throughput - 70 Gbps
Switching capacity: 140 Gbps
Forwarding rate: 104.16 MppsBoth have identical speed specs, Am I missing something?
-
They are the exact same box minus the POE part of the hardware... the difference will be in the software running on them and features they have for the software.
-
Our Edgeswitch has 10GigE
-
@scottalanmiller The unifi switch does too. I just went through this debating between the two and went with the edgeswitch just because I would rather have features I didn't use then find something I needed that they haven't put in the unifi switch yet.

If your network was that complex as to need that type of feature, that you don't even know you need now, then why are you even looking at devices like these and not high end enterprise devices?
I can totally understand not going with the Unifi stuff because it's more money and includes a feature you don't need (POE), but lack of a feature statement seems weird.

What would a high end switch over in value there?
