8 Gigabit Ports, 4 with PoE+
Eight GbE RJ45 ports — four delivering PoE/PoE+ up to 30W each — power and connect cameras, access points, and VoIP phones over a single cable while four data-only ports handle the rest.
52W Total PoE Budget
A 52W PoE budget (with the included 60W power adapter) drives multiple PoE devices at once — perfect for a small UniFi camera or access-point cluster.
Silent Fanless Design
Passive cooling means zero noise — ideal for desks, reception areas, meeting rooms, and any space where a noisy switch isn't welcome.
Full Layer 2 Management
VLANs, STP/RSTP, IGMP snooping, LACP aggregation, port mirroring, storm control, 802.1X, DHCP snooping, ACLs, and more — enterprise-grade control in a compact unit.
Managed in UniFi Network
Adopt and configure from the UniFi Network application (v7.2.94+) for one-pane visibility across your entire UniFi stack — no per-device logins.
Compact & Wall-Mountable
At just 99.6 x 163.7 x 31.7 mm and 295 g, it sits on a desk or mounts to a wall with the included mounting kit — tidy installs in tight spaces.
16 Gbps Switching Capacity
8 Gbps non-blocking throughput and 16 Gbps switching capacity keep traffic flowing at full line rate across all eight ports.
NDAA Compliant
Confirmed NDAA Section 889 compliant by Ubiquiti — suitable for government, defence, and security-sensitive installations.
UniFi Switch Lite 8 PoE
USW-Lite-8-PoE 8-port Gigabit managed PoE switch.
60W Power Adapter
External 54V / 60W AC/DC power adapter included.
Wall-Mount Kit
Mounting hardware for tidy wall installs included.
Not Included
Network cables and a UniFi Network host (Cloud Gateway / Cloud Key / self-hosted) are required separately.
How many PoE ports does the USW-Lite-8-PoE have?
Four of the eight Gigabit ports support PoE/PoE+ (up to 30W per port), with a 52W total PoE budget. The other four ports are data-only.
Does it need a separate controller?
Yes. It's managed through the UniFi Network application, which runs on a UniFi Cloud Gateway, Cloud Key, or a self-hosted controller (v7.2.94 or later).
Is it fanless?
Yes. The switch uses passive cooling for completely silent operation — ideal for offices, desks, and reception areas.
Is the power adapter included?
Yes. An external 54V / 60W AC/DC power adapter is included in the box, along with a wall-mount kit.
Is the USW-Lite-8-PoE NDAA compliant?
Yes. Ubiquiti confirms the switch is NDAA Section 889 compliant, making it suitable for government and security-sensitive sites.
