Who Installs Ubiquiti UniFi Networks in Sussex? A Look at UniFi PoE Switch Installation
Ever looked inside a network cabinet and wondered what on earth all those cables and flashing lights actually do?
Well, there's a bit more to it than just plugging everything in!
Here at Wire Wizards, we're regularly installing, upgrading and sorting out Ubiquiti UniFi networks across Sussex, whether that's for a business, a large house, an office or a property where the WiFi just doesn't reach where it's needed.
And one important part of many of these networks is the UniFi switch.
What's a UniFi PoE Switch, and Why Would You Need One?
In our video, we're taking a look at a Ubiquiti UniFi switch and the network cabinet where equipment like this belongs.
A UniFi PoE switch can do two jobs through the same Ethernet cable: carry network data and provide power to compatible equipment.
That can include:
Ubiquiti UniFi WiFi access points
Compatible IP CCTV cameras
VoIP telephones
Other PoE network equipment
Rather than having separate power supplies everywhere, a suitable PoE switch can help keep the installation much tidier.
But it's not simply a case of buying any old switch. You need to consider how many devices you're connecting, their power requirements, network speeds and what you might want to add later.
That's where Spike comes in!
Why Does Professional UniFi Installation Matter?
We've seen plenty of networks where somebody has bought excellent equipment, but the WiFi still doesn't work properly.
Sometimes it's poor access point positioning. Sometimes it's the cabling. Other times, the network simply hasn't been configured to suit the property.
A UniFi switch is just one part of the bigger picture.
At Wire Wizards, we can help with the whole installation, including Cat6 network cabling, UniFi switches, access points, gateways, WiFi coverage and connecting different parts of a building.
Whether we're working in a business premises or sorting out a large family home with thick walls, the aim is the same: a network that works where you actually need it.
Can You Upgrade an Existing Ubiquiti UniFi Network?
Absolutely. And you don't necessarily need to replace everything!
You might already have a UniFi Dream Machine, access points or an older UniFi switch.
We can look at the existing network, find out what's causing problems and advise on what genuinely needs upgrading.
Sometimes it's a switch upgrade, sometimes additional access points or improved Ethernet cabling. And sometimes it's a configuration issue rather than faulty equipment.
We're not interested in replacing perfectly good equipment just for the sake of it.
