The PoE budget is a critical specification as it indicates the total power a switch can supply to connected PoE devices. A higher PoE budget allows more devices or more power-hungry devices to be connected and powered effectively. PoE switches like the Ubiquiti US-24-250W with a 250W budget, offer substantial power for multiple devices, while others like the Ubiquiti USW-24-POE offer 120W, which might suit smaller setups. Understanding your power needs will ensure you choose a switch that can handle your device load without interruptions.
