 What do you expect? This is nothing you can actively manage. You can
turn it off and on:

 Fine, but I couldn’t find even that on-off switch.

The Ultra Wideband system doesn't have nor need any user-level modification, so there is no specific "on-off switch" for it. It is automatically turned off and on as part of the function of the Airplane Mode switch on iPhone 11 and newer:
    Ultra Wideband must be turned off when onboard aircraft, ships,
    and other prohibited regions by turning on airplane mode. To turn
    on airplane mode, open Control Center, then tap plane icon. You
    can also turn airplane mode on or off in Settings. When airplane
    mode is on, the plane icon appears in the status bar.
Ultra Wideband is also not available in a few countries:
   - Armenia
   - Azerbaijan
   - Belarus
   - Indonesia
   - Kazakhstan
   - Kyrgyzstan
   - Nepal
   - Russia
   - Tajikistan
   - Turkmenistan
   - Ukraine
   - Uzbekistan
