ISO: Best (Simplest) SMB PoE Switch
« on: May 30, 2016, 02:20:04 PM »
Looking for a 24 port Poe Switch
Which would be best in terms of simplicity and features?

I read a lot of great things about the Ubiquiti UniFi Switch and a lot of bad things about netgear's line, i also noticed that the more costly a switch is the more serious issues people encounter

My requirements I know of are:
  • Rackmount
  • 24 port with at least 12 being POE

Ubiquiti is overall amazing.


the last switch i personally bought is this http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-Gigabit-Ethernet-Rackmount-TL-SG1008PE/dp/B00E6LID0S?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage

and it works well.

I read all over about Ubiquiti
But how is their support?

And would you recommend the unifi or edgemax?
(i don't have too much networking knowledge and 0 about CLI)

I also have to point out that I do not project the need of managing Wireless AP's here in the next 7 years

I don't know about edgemax at all, but i've been very happy with everything ubiqtui
