The original Flex mini switch did absolutely have Port manager capabilities with full VLAN support, it did not however have any spanning tree protocol support.
I have one under my desk at home, and I'm using VLANS on it :) I have 10Gbit/s wan from udm max pro, so having this option, a small unifi desktop switch that handles 2.5GbE is just absolutely perfect. Before this on, I had the Gigabit one, but I recall it also having vlans hmmm
I’d like to see an Ultra 8 port 2.5 Gb switch. Maybe another version with POE+. Basically, Ubiqui needs to take the gloves off and get super real with their offerings.
Hey, so the Flex Mini 2.5GbE doesn't support PoE output. However, if you are powering the cameras with a PoE injector, then yes - this switch will work just fine for cameras.
@@Net-Extension they misspoke, the original Flex mini had full VLAN support viaport manager since its debut. I use that functionality on many Flex mini switches on a daily basis. They are great for that if you don't need spanning tree support on that branch.
@@Net-Extension all three Flex variants have full VLAN support via port manager. That's the original Flex, Flex mini and the new Flex 2.5. However only the new flex 2.5 supports spanning tree protocol.

Very nice!

Will these work ok with Poe cameras?

No vlan capabilities ? why ? other manufacturers have vlan capable switches by default .....

@@Venix91 Thank you so much. So I guess the new flex also has Vlan support, right ?

However only the new flex 2.5 supports spanning tree protocol.
Best of all you can two of them at the price point.
