Ubiquiti UniFi Switch Aggregation | Managed Layer 2 Switch with 8 SFP+ 10G Ports (USW-Aggregation)

Got this in January of 2023 and loved it. It's now August, not loving it so much. It will randomly go offline and take my NASes down with it. I've have to factor reset it at least 4 times, if not more. I'm usually happy with ubiquiti equipment, but this thing has been a headache.

Tout est dans le titre... Compatible fscom, Cisco et Jupiter sans soucis

This switch is very flexible and I highly recommend it to anyone that has need of greater than 1GB connectivity in their UniFi network. it can be difficult to see how this may be used in a home network so I will use mine as an example. I use this switch in my home network to connect two of my other main switches and a couple of clients. I have two UniFi switches connected to this switch. Both only have SFP ports, not SFP+ so I aggregated their ports to this switch for a 2GB connection to each. I have a NAS connected at 10GB using DAC and I have my main PC with a 10GB Ethernet port connected using an SFP to Ethernet converter. I have 1.4GB internet and connecting my UDM pro to this switch allows my clients that are connected to this switch that are faster than 1GB download at full speed.

I needed a few 10gE ports in a quiet environment. This fan-less unit worked out well for the purpose. I had trouble using Cisco and 3M (MMM) branded DACs, but some other generics worked ok. I didn't try any ubiquiti optics.

Excuse my poor photos, but I am really happy with this switch. It has great value for the price to add multi-gig speeds into your network. It seems many reviewers had issues with this switch but my experience was positive. I have it connected to a UDM pro, two different Cisco switches, one 10G Intel RJ45 NIC, one Intel SFP NIC, and one broadcom SFP NIC. I get proper negotiation to 10G with all of those connections and appear to get getting close to 10G actual throughput on all of those links (though - I haven't tested more than two at the same time). Do note that as stated in the manual and product page on Ubiquiti's site this switch will only work with 1G OR 10G in each slot. If you want sub-10G the switch will not negotiate properly and you will get strange behavior and packet errors. However, if that is important to you, there are some RJ45 transceivers that appear to handle this problem well. The Mikrotik S+RJ10 is one of those. It appears to negotiate 10G on the SFP side and whatever other speed you need on the RJ side and handle the link between those two ends with no packet loss or throughput sacrifice. But, that isn't "officially" supported so if you plan on using that heavily this probably is not the switch for you. I have tried 3 other SFP transceivers and they did not work properly at sub-10G multigig speeds.
