Overview
The Ubiquiti EAV-XG-24-PoE Enterprise Audio/Video XG 24 PoE is a 1U Layer 3 managed switch built for high-bandwidth professional audio/video and enterprise network deployments. It provides 24 multigigabit 10GbE PoE+++ RJ45 ports and four 100G QSFP28 uplinks, with dedicated timing features for deterministic media synchronization.
Port Configuration
The switch provides 24× 10GbE RJ45 ports supporting 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G, 100M, and 10M Ethernet, with PoE+++ available across all 24 ports. One additional 1GbE RJ45 management/network port is provided, along with four 100G QSFP28 interfaces supporting 100G and 40G operation.
Professional AV and Synchronization
The EAV-XG-24-PoE is designed for professional media networking with support for SMPTE ST 2110, SDVoE, AES67, and other Pro AV profiles. Its precision timing implementation supports IEEE 1588-2008 PTPv2 with hardware timestamping across Ethernet and QSFP28 ports. The switch incorporates a high-precision OCXO clock and provides an SMA interface for optional GPS grandmaster input.
PoE and Power
All 24 RJ45 access ports support PoE+++ with up to 90W per port. The switch uses two hot-swappable 1,200W AC/DC power modules. Total available PoE power varies according to AC input voltage and whether the power supplies are configured for shared or redundant operation, reaching up to 2,150W in 200–240V AC shared mode.
Key Features
- 24× 10GbE RJ45 PoE+++ ports with up to 90W per port
- 4× 100G QSFP28 uplinks supporting 100G/40G operation
- IEEE 1588-2008 PTPv2 with hardware timestamping and multiple timing profiles
- High-precision OCXO clock with optional GPS grandmaster input through SMA
- Dual hot-swappable 1,200W power modules and four hot-swappable fan modules
Applications
The EAV-XG-24-PoE is intended for professional AV-over-IP, broadcast and media networks, high-bandwidth enterprise access or aggregation, and deployments requiring synchronized audio/video traffic. Supported Pro AV profiles include Play, Dante, Q-SYS, NDI, SDVoE, Shure, AES67, and Crestron.
DC Supplies Product Note
For installations with substantial PoE demand, verify the AC voltage and power-supply operating mode during system planning because the available PoE budget differs between shared and redundant configurations.
