Performance:

• The EdgeRouter 12 offers increased performance over previous generation routers.
• It delivers up to 3.4 million packets per second (pps) for 64-byte packets, indicating its high-speed capabilities.

Ports:

• (10) Gigabit RJ45 Ports: These ports provide copper connectivity for your network devices.
• (2) SFP Ports: These ports offer fiber connectivity options for your network.

PoE Flexibility:

• The EdgeRouter 12 supports PoE (Power over Ethernet) flexibility, which allows you to power compatible devices through the network cable.

Layer 2 Switching:

• The router supports Layer-2 switching, which means it can operate as a switch at the data link layer, allowing for efficient and fast data forwarding between devices on the same network.

Configuration:

• Configuration of the EdgeRouter 12 can be done using either EdgeOS or UISP (UniFi Network).

• Ports: It includes sixteen Gigabit Ethernet ports, out of which eight are auto-sensing 802.3at PoE+ ports, and there are also two SFP ports.
• PoE Support: The switch provides Gigabit PoE links to your RJ45 Ethernet devices, which means it can power compatible devices over the Ethernet cables. This can be useful for devices like IP cameras, phones, or access points.
• Fiber Uplink: The switch offers Gigabit fiber uplink options to connect to your enterprise network using SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) ports. Fiber connections are often used for longer-distance and high-speed links.
• 1.3″ Touch LCM: It features a 1.3-inch touch LCM (Liquid Crystal Module) to provide status information, making it easier to monitor the switch’s status and configurations.
• Compact Design: The switch has a compact and fanless design with a depth of 7.9 inches, making it suitable for installation in a Small Office/Home Office (SOHO) rack cabinet.
• Management: It can be managed and configured by the UniFi Network Controller and also offers UniFi mobile app support. This means you can configure and monitor the switch remotely using a graphical user interface.
• Layer 2 Switching: The switch supports advanced Layer 2 switching protocols and features. It allows you to configure different operation modes (switching, mirroring, or aggregation) per port, giving you flexibility in how you use the switch.
• UniFi Network Controller: The switch is managed by the UniFi Network Controller, and it requires version 5.11.27 or higher of the controller software.

Specifications:

• 48 Gigabit Ethernet Ports: This includes 40 ports supporting 802.3at (PoE+) and 8 ports supporting 802.3bt (PoE++) for powering devices.
• 4 10G SFP+ Ports: These ports provide high-speed connectivity and support link aggregation.
• Layer 2 and Layer 3 Features: The switch offers advanced networking capabilities, including Layer 2 switching and Layer 3 functionality like inter-VLAN routing, static routing, and DHCP server.
• Maximum PoE Power: The switch can deliver a maximum of 600W of PoE power, making it suitable for powering a variety of PoE devices.
• UniFi SmartPower RPS Support: It supports UniFi SmartPower RPS (Redundant Power Supply) for power redundancy.
• Near-Silent Cooling: The switch is designed for quiet operation.
• 1.3″ Touchscreen Display: It features a touchscreen display for easy monitoring and configuration.
• Managed with UniFi Network Application: You can manage and configure the switch using the UniFi Network application, providing an intuitive graphical user interface.

Compatibility:

• Managed with UniFi Network Application Version: 5.10.5 or higher
