Gigabit Ethernet Connectivity

The USW-Flex-Mini provides five Gigabit RJ45 Ethernet ports supporting 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps Ethernet connections. This allows computers, access points, printers, IP cameras, NAS devices, smart devices, and other network equipment to be connected through a single compact switch.

Gigabit connectivity provides substantially higher wired network capacity than Fast Ethernet, making the switch suitable for file transfers, business applications, media streaming, network storage, and other bandwidth-intensive local network activities.

UniFi Network Management

As part of the UniFi ecosystem, the USW-Flex-Mini can be managed through UniFi Network. Administrators can use the UniFi management environment to configure supported network settings, monitor connected devices, and manage network traffic from a centralized interface.

This makes the switch particularly useful for users already operating UniFi access points, gateways, cameras, or other UniFi networking equipment and looking for a compact managed switch that can be incorporated into the same management environment.

Layer 2 Network Features

The USW-Flex-Mini supports a range of Layer 2 functions designed to improve network organization, visibility, and traffic management. Supported features include VLANs, egress rate limiting, flow control, storm control, multicast and broadcast rate limiting, port isolation, port mirroring, and jumbo frames.

These features allow the switch to be used in more structured network environments where traffic separation, monitoring, and basic access-control requirements are important.

Flexible Power Options

The USW-Flex-Mini can be powered using the included USB Type-C 5V/1A power adapter, making it convenient for standard desktop and small-office installations. The designated Ethernet port also supports 802.3af/at PoE input, allowing the switch to receive power through the network connection when a compatible PoE infrastructure is available.

Important: The PoE capability of the USW-Flex-Mini is for power input. It should not be treated as a PoE-output switch for powering other Ethernet devices.

Compact and Quiet Design

Measuring only 107 x 70 x 21 mm and weighing approximately 150 grams, the USW-Flex-Mini can be positioned easily on a desk, shelf, counter, or other compact installation area. Its fanless design helps provide quiet operation, making it suitable for offices, workstations, home networks, meeting rooms, and other environments where operating noise should be minimized.
