With 32 ports of 10 GbE, 16 ports of 2.5 GbE, and 4 uplinks of 25G SFP28, every port can carry PoE+++ at up to 90W, backed by dual hot-swappable 1,200W power supplies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTotal PoE headroom runs from 750W up to 2,150W depending on AC input voltage and redundancy mode. That is enough budget to drive dozens of PoE++ access points, PTZ cameras, or access readers from a single 1U chassis without stitching together separate power injectors. Maximum switch power consumption is 2,400W including PoE, 250W without.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerformance matches the port count: 920 Gbps non-blocking switching capacity, 684 Mpps forwarding rate, 32,000 MAC addresses, and 256,000 IPv4 routes for full Layer 3 capability.

Compared to the USW-Enterprise-48-PoE, the ECS adds 25G SFP28 uplinks (vs 10G), dual hot-swap PSUs, and 920 Gbps of switching capacity with Layer 3 at scale. If the alternative is a Cisco Catalyst or Aruba CX at 2-3x the cost plus a licensing bill, the ECS-48-POE delivers the same aggregation-layer capability managed from the same console as the rest of your UniFi deployment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBuild and Connectivity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSGCC steel chassis in a 1U full-depth form factor (442.4 x 43.7 x 496 mm, 21 lbs with rack brackets). 32 ports of 10 GbE RJ45 (10G\/5G\/2.5G\/1G\/100M\/10M) plus 16 ports of 2.5 GbE RJ45 (2.5G\/1G\/100M\/10M), all PoE+++ at 90W max per port. 4 ports of 25G SFP28 for uplink (25G\/10G\/1G).
