The switching ports are probably fine.

I wouldn't trust the power-over-ethernet at any distance where I couldn't still read the UL approval sticker.

(Which it does not have.)

Most networking equipment doesn’t have a UL or other NRTL listing. I don’t think any Ubiquiti product includes a UL mark. Even their power bricks and devices that take line voltage lack a listing.

Even if a product does have a listing it’s prob just for the power supply and not for the PoE circuitry.
