Looking for PoE switches in the Unifi family. This is a little overkill for me, but looks to be a pretty decent price for what it is (not cheapest of all time, but can't see any deals for it since 2020).

If I could have 2.5 gbe for $639 I'd be all over it!!! Yeah, there is a Pro version with 10 Gbps SFP and an enterprise version that has half of the RJ45 ports 2.5 Gbps.
USW-Pro-48-POE is almost $2000 and USW-Enterprise-24-PoE is close to $1500 so much different price bracket unfortunately.
USW-Pro-24-POE is $1249 at JW Computers. But still a different bracket :P
I decided better to go a little overkill now and not need to upgrade later. I got the enterprise version with half 2.5, waited patiently for an eBay code and ended up being $1120.
It looks like you can get the one you listed for $641 delivered on eBay through Digilifeonline
Doesn't look like any of these are available via eBay at this moment.
Was $570 last week with the Ebay 22% off sale, grabbed one myself then
The PoE output is pretty woeful except on the Pro range which only cost a bit more.
Yeah I'd love the 16 port but its PoE is very low (~45W) relative to the cost. This one isn't too bad (~94W) if you are just running a few AP and a PoE switch or something, but still not fantastic.
Pro range is almost exactly double the price, which I wouldn't call pretty close!
I'm probably just going to grab the USW-8-Lite-PoE for now. I will be maxing out the ports on day 1 which is never a great plan, but it is so cheap relative to the other Unifi options that I can just upgrade when it becomes an issue (and use a couple of USW-Flex-Mini if I have to for low bandwidth devices).
Is the USW-8-Lite-PoE PoE on all ports? I have an 8 port switch but only 4 PoE and used them all up straight away. Need something to power another AP or 2 and 3 cameras.
No it only has 4 PoE as well (and not a heap of capacity) but I only have a couple of devices that need it in my network. Although when I went to buy it for myself I remembered an additional couple of devices that mean I definitely need a 16.
I've been waiting for availability of 250W version of it for more than a year now since 95W for 24 ports (technically 16) is ridiculous.
Do you mean the US-24-250W? I don't think it's officially discontinued but it's an older gen1 device and they might not be producing more of these?
yeah so maybe time to look at the other options
It's on sale as I believe there is a new model out/soon.
Source? Nothing in Early Access and this is already the new generation model.
Anyone else having issues checking out?
Can't buy it.
eBay is the go this week! AU $594.24 shipped is the cheapest I can find for ebay Plus, 2% extra if not Plus.
**EDIT:
Showing as delivery 'Tue, 11 Jul and Tue, 18 Jul', unfortunately can't wait a month for it :(
There were a couple of stores on eBay around the same price - did you check them? It shows in red from the search results the ones that the promo applies to.
I ended up buying the USW-LITE-16-POE for $299 on the eBay special.
For a second there I was crushed having paid $1.3k for a unifi 24 port, but I see this one is the Gbe not 2.5Gbe version, not a bad deal for this one
