I got Yayzi installed beginning of January.
I’ve had a Unifi UDM Pro since, I don’t actually remember anymore.
930-ish mbps up/down is fine for me, but if I could eke out a little bit of extra bandwidth, I’m not going to say no. Hence my plan was to attach ONT to one of the SFP+ ports. But after somewhat recently seeing the diagram here, I’m wondering if it is worth it.
As can be seen, the connection between the CPU and the switch chip is 1 Gbps, so I’m guessing that I wouldn’t see any speed difference when doing performance tests.
So here’s my real question: What have other users here who have UDM Pro’s done? Connected via a SFP+ port? And if so, what do you see if you do a speedtest?
I mean, since it’s SFP+, Then yes, the router would say more than 1gb/s, However, you would have to connect your switch via the SFP+ LAN, To be able to see the benefit
Any connection from the UDM SE would still be 1gb/s, However, it would allow you to use more at a time as the router would have more bandwidth going into it
So for example, you could run a speed test on one PC And get the full 1gb/s, And run another of Speedtest on A phone or PC And still get some speed because you have a roundabout 300 Mb/s spare As at the moment, a 900 x 900 connection Is actually profession as a 1.2gb/s connection, However, that could change at any point
In simple terms, the onboard switch backhaul on the UDMP and SE is indeed limited to 1Gb/s, so whatever you connect to that, is going to share that 1Gb/s link. Connect the ONT via SFP+ and you can pull upto 10Gb/s via that (ONT/ISP permitting), the later SE had a dedicated 2.5Gb WAN as well as the SFP+ WAN (you can allocate them as you see fit), the Mikrotik SFP+ to copper transceivers will let you do that via copper if you prefer. Either way, I get 1.2/1 on my SE near as dammit.
