    That looks like it's from the UISP family not Unifi family. Are you sure it's compatible with the other Unifi stuff? My guess is that it won't work with most other Ubiquiti gear (which is the Unifi range)

    Ubiquiti ecosystem.

    Doesn't work with UniFi according to google review. You've been warned…

    BE VERY CAREFUL - this one provides PASSIVE PoE, designed for things like wireless bridges, outdoor PtP links, etc.

    It will not work with normal PoE devices like wireless access points, VoIP phones, cameras, etc. You can damage normal PoE devices by plugging this thing into them, as passive PoE typically doesn't run through the PoE negotiation process, and just shunts 27V directly to your gear.

      Wondering if it can power this AP extender which requires 48V passive

        Sorry, no. It's a 24-28V supply only.

        That TP-Link doesn't need 48V passive though, it can take standard PoE (802.3at) too.

        Even TP-Link doesn't sell a passive 48V PoE switch, just a couple of injectors/adapters like this one: https://www.tp-link.com/au/business-networking/omada-accesso….

        You can find industrial switches and injectors that provide passive 48V PoE, generally ruggedised or high-temp versions, if you really need them. Most people domestically would just use standard/active PoE instead.

          Thanks so much for the run through. Helped a lot.

    • stewface on 28/06/2024 - 20:20

      I use passive POE for everything in my place including ubnt APs haven’t had a single drama yet.

      Got a big 8A 48v adapter that hooks into the line and feeeds everything just fine - had it for 5 yrs now too..

      • Carve2 on 28/06/2024 - 20:50

        Great stuff, and it sounds like you know what you're doing.

        My point was more to stop people who just thought "hey, cheap Ubiquiti PoE switch", bought it, and killed something.

        • stewface on 28/06/2024 - 20:54

          I’ve always wondered what it would take to fry a device with passive poe.

          I don’t juice everything, but I have occasionally left it running and plugged it into a non poe device - no failures or sparks yet.

          I do wish I could power cycle devices with smart poe, alas I don’t have $$$$ to drop on ubnt gear that will do it.

            @stewface: It doesn't take too much, but it gets pretty technical to describe how that happens internally. Short version - true PoE (to international standards) is negotiated from end to end, passive isn't, so it can feed more (or less) voltage and current that causes parts to underperform or overload.

            However, worst is that passive PoE is always live, so the bigger problem is if you plug in a laptop, gaming console, TV, or anything else into the switch in the deal above. Suddenly, a NIC on your TV that wasn't designed for anything more than LAN traffic has 27V/15W of power dumped into it. What happens next is up to the manufacturer of the device, but it's not normally good.

            An old network guy I knew used to put shrink-wrapped labels with gun images on both ends of a passive PoE cable because he described passive PoE as a "gun waiting to go off". Bit extreme, but he got his message across!

    • BigMoth on 28/06/2024 - 23:12

      Thanks for the advice.
      What's a good value PoE switch to use for home cameras? I've got a new Reolink PoE door camera to install (from another deal).

      • Carve2 on 30/06/2024 - 10:15

        Honestly, I'd probably just grab a basic TP-Link unmanaged switch if you're not into networking. Check which level of PoE your device supports (probably 802.3af/PoE, but might be 802.3at/PoE+), how many other hard-wired products you want to connect, or how many you want to allow for future-proofing.
        Any of these are fine for simple setups: https://www.tp-link.com/au/business-networking/soho-switch-p…

      Just replying to myself to add something important from another comment here:

    The UniFi Network application only supports UniFi hardware, so EdgeMAX, airMAX and other UISP devices cannot be added to UniFi.

  • whoistheg on 28/06/2024 - 12:19

    does this work with the normal UniFi software ? It seems to say you need to use UISP software to manage it ?

  • Horacio on 28/06/2024 - 12:36

    Anyone have a favourite budget managed switch that's readily available in Oz?

  • HaydosK on 28/06/2024 - 13:00

    Does anyone know a good switch for the u6 lite? PoE specifications are so confusing.

    • Orrelljet on 28/06/2024 - 13:26

      Any of the Unifi switches with PoE should work. If your needs are light, the Lite 8 port would do nicely.

      • HaydosK on 28/06/2024 - 14:11

        Thanks. Couldn't get enough time last night to buy from wireless 1 and the checkout was a joke. I will look out for the next sale

  • iFetch on 28/06/2024 - 19:46

    Was thinking of getting one for some IP cameras but this switch does not to 48V POE Active mode. Best I have found is a generic switch on Amazon usually about $60

  • NotForYou91 on 28/06/2024 - 22:43

    Any recommendations for a UniFi compatible switch? Bought the UDM pro but need a couple more POEs. Will the Lite 16 suffice? To power 2 x U6 long range and 1 U6 Mesh. Cheers for any help, folks!

    • Carve2 on 30/06/2024 - 16:36
      +2

      The U6-LR are PoE+, so they'll want up to 30W each, and up to ~15W for the U6-Mesh. The Lite16 has a total PoE budget of 45W, so it'll just do what you want, but nothing else.

      Do you need all 16 ports? An older US-8-150 has a lot more power to play with, but if you need at least 16 ports, I'd suggest finding a US-24-250 or USW-16-PoE.

        Thanks so much for your response and time taken. Really appreciate it!

          No problem. I'm not sure how much of a deal you'll find on those, but they're the kind of thing that you can pick up used and know they'll still be fine for home use. I wouldn't trust used on a commercial or client's job, but for home, all day every day.
