Manufacturer Contact Info

The Ubiquiti Lite 8 PoE is a managed Layer 2 switch with eight Gigabit Ethernet ports, including four PoE+ ports and 52W total PoE availability with its external 60W adapter, suited to small offices or home networks connecting access points, cameras, and other PoE devices.

Recommended For

Small UniFi home or office networks adding a few access points, cameras, or VoIP phones, where four PoE+ ports and a shared 52W PoE budget are sufficient.
People placing a switch on a desk, shelf, or wall in a quiet room who want fanless operation and a compact footprint.
UniFi Network users who want to add managed Layer 2 features—such as VLAN-related controls, port isolation, or IGMP snooping—to a small wired network.
Users who need a compact eight-port Gigabit switch with PoE on some ports and regular Ethernet on the rest, rather than PoE on every connected device.

Real-World Use Scenarios

In a UniFi home network, use the switch to connect and power a few wired access points; each compatible AP gets data and power over one Ethernet cable, while the remaining ports can serve wired devices. The switch has four PoE ports, so it suits a small AP deployment rather than a larger one.
For a home office or small business, connect computers, printers, and other wired devices while using PoE ports for compatible access points or phones. The result is a compact, managed Gigabit Ethernet expansion point; connected devices still need an upstream router or network.
For a small wired security-camera setup, connect compatible PoE cameras directly to the switch instead of using separate injectors. It can power up to four PoE devices, but check the cameras’ combined power draw against the 52 W total budget; larger camera systems may need a switch with more PoE ports or capacity.
In a room with limited space, place the switch on a desk or mount it on a wall to bring Ethernet connections together near the devices. Its fanless design avoids switch-fan noise, which can be useful in a home office or other quiet work area.
For a home network that separates device groups, use the switch’s managed Layer 2 features to carry VLAN-configured connections as part of a UniFi setup. VLAN assignment and network policies require compatible network management and routing equipment; the switch alone does not provide those functions.
