Ubiquiti ECS-48S-PoE (2150W) Enterprise-Grade 48-Port Layer 3 Etherlighting PoE+++ Switch

The Ubiquiti ECS-48S-PoE (2150W) is an enterprise-grade, fully managed Layer 3 switch designed for high-performance networks. With 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports, all supporting PoE+++ (IEEE 802.3bt), and a massive 2150W total PoE budget, it powers demanding devices like PTZ cameras, high-power access points, and IoT gateways. Four 10G SFP+ uplinks provide high-speed connectivity to core infrastructure. The switch features Etherlighting technology for intuitive port status visualization and a 1.3" touchscreen for local management. Powered by a dual-core ARM Cortex-A57 processor and 4GB DDR4 RAM, it delivers 176 Gbps switching capacity and 88 Mpps forwarding rate. Ideal for enterprise networks, campuses, and high-density PoE deployments.

Advantages

High PoE budget of 2150W powers all 48 ports with PoE+++ (up to 60W per port). Etherlighting provides real-time port status via RGB LEDs. Layer 3 features include static routing, DHCP server, and VLANs. Redundant DC input supports USP-RPS for power redundancy. Compact 1U rackmount form factor saves space.
