One of the standout features of the ES-24-LITE is its support for Power over Ethernet (PoE) across all ports, providing a total power budget of 250W. This capability enables the switch to power devices such as IP cameras and VoIP phones directly through the Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for separate power sources and simplifying installation. The switch also includes two SFP ports for 1G fiber uplinks, enhancing flexibility in network design.

Performance-wise, the EdgeSwitch boasts a total non-blocking throughput of 26 Gbps and a forwarding rate of 19.4 million packets per second, ensuring low latency and high-speed data transfers. The fanless design not only reduces noise levels, making it suitable for office environments, but also contributes to its durability by minimizing moving parts.

Management is straightforward through Ubiquiti’s intuitive web interface and mobile app, providing access to advanced features like VLAN support, IGMP snooping, Quality of Service (QoS), and link aggregation. These capabilities allow for enhanced traffic management and network optimization, catering to various application needs.

With its rack-mountable form factor, silent operation, and robust feature set, the Ubiquiti 24-Port EdgeSwitch (ES-24-LITE) is a reliable choice for organizations seeking a powerful and scalable networking solution .
