16-Port Layer 3 Switch with Etherlighting, 2.5 GbE Ports, and Fanless Silent Operation
The Ubiquiti UniFi Pro Max 16 (USW-PRO-MAX-16) is a Layer 3 managed switch with 16 Ethernet ports, Etherlighting LED indicators, and a completely fanless design for silent operation. It provides 4x 2.5 GbE ports for WiFi 6 APs or high-bandwidth devices, 12x Gigabit ports for standard endpoints, and 2x 10G SFP+ uplinks for fiber or DAC aggregation to the network core.
The Pro Max line features Etherlighting - LED-illuminated RJ45 ports that display color-coded status for port speed, link activity, and VLAN assignment directly on the switch face. The fanless thermal design runs completely silent for deployment in offices, studios, and other noise-sensitive environments. Desktop, wall, or rack mounting options with included hardware. Managed through UniFi Network.
Where the Pro Max 16 Fits
- Small offices and workgroups that need Layer 3 inter-VLAN routing, 2.5G ports for WiFi 6 APs, and silent fanless operation in an open workspace
- Home labs and prosumer setups where Etherlighting provides instant visual port identification and the compact form factor fits on a desk or wall mount
- Branch offices and retail locations that need a quiet switch with 10G fiber uplinks to the core and 2.5G for high-bandwidth access points
What the Pro Max 16 Delivers
- 16 ports (mixed speed): 4x 2.5 GbE + 12x GbE RJ45 access ports, plus 2x 10G SFP+ uplinks. The 2.5G ports serve WiFi 6 APs or NAS devices that exceed Gigabit.
