Ubiquiti UniFi WAN Switch (USW-WAN) – 10G SFP+ WAN Switch for High Availability
The USW‑WAN is a Layer 2 10 Gbps (SFP+) switch designed to connect two UniFi gateways in high-availability (HA) mode to a single ISP connection. It ensures seamless failover in the event of a gateway failure, eliminating the single point of failure at the WAN edge. The unit features dual AC power supplies for redundancy and a 1U rackmount enclosure for easy integration into professional IT infrastructures.
Product Description
UniFi WAN Switch (USW‑WAN) is purpose-built to provide WAN high availability within the UniFi ecosystem. It supports the Shadow Mode HA architecture, where both a primary and a backup UniFi gateway are connected in parallel to the same WAN uplink. If the primary gateway fails, the backup immediately takes over traffic flow, and USW‑WAN guarantees uninterrupted internet connectivity via automatic failover. This ensures continuity of service even under fault conditions.
The USW‑WAN features three 10G SFP+ ports and one 1G Ethernet port, offering versatile connectivity options for both fiber and copper uplinks. A non-blocking switching capacity of 20 Gbps and full 10 Gbps line rate switching ensures maximum performance and zero packet loss. Operating as a Layer 2 switch, the device introduces minimal complexity and latency to WAN deployments.
Fully integrated with UniFi OS, the USW‑WAN is managed via the UniFi Network application, enabling centralized configuration and monitoring. High Availability deployments use UniFi’s built-in VRRP protocol, and the setup is streamlined and intuitive. The device is NDAA-compliant and certified for enterprise environments (CE, FCC, IC), making it an ideal solution for business and service provider networks requiring carrier-grade uptime and resiliency.
Key Features
- Redundant WAN connectivity: 10G SFP+ switch enabling two UniFi gateways to share a single internet uplink in high-availability (HA) mode.
- High throughput: 20 Gbps switching capacity and 10 Gbps line-rate forwarding eliminate bottlenecks and ensure uninterrupted WAN performance.
- Dual AC power: two independent 100–240 V AC power inputs for full power redundancy and reliability.
- 10G SFP+ and RJ45 ports: three 10G SFP+ ports and one 1G RJ45 port provide versatile WAN and LAN connectivity.
- UniFi integration: centrally managed via UniFi Network, ensuring simple configuration and full visibility in UniFi deployments.
