Sounds about right... I don't know what a VLAN is yet really @TW but I would like a setup where as I learn more networking stuff I won't be held back by what I've bought.
Given they cost £24 it would seem rude not to chuck in a Switch Flex Mini at the same time
https://eu.store.ui.com/collections/unifi-network-routing-switching/products/usw-flex-miniThinking I could ultimately use the 4 PoE ports for 2 x UAPs and 2 of these.
That should take me into free postage too from their store but of course that's not applying. Presumably I need to forget my purchases then readopt them?

That Unifi Switch 8 60W is good, I’ve deployed loads of them too. It only has 4 powered ports if that matters.
It seems like you’re making an extremely simple, flat network; start with any switches that meet your PoE/port density requirements and upgrade if needed later on.
