Getting Started

Installation

1. Place the switch on a flat surface or mount it on a wall using the provided wall-mounting slots.
2. Connect the power adapter to the switch and plug it into a power outlet.
3. Connect your devices to the switch using Ethernet cables. For PoE devices, use the PoE+ ports (1-4).

LED Indicators

• Power: Solid green when the switch is powered on.
• Link/Act (1-5): Solid green when a device is connected and active on the corresponding port.
• PoE (1-4): Solid green when a PoE device is connected and receiving power on the corresponding port.

Advanced Features

Extend Mode

Extend Mode allows for up to 250m data and power PoE transmission range. To enable Extend Mode, press the "EXTEND" button on the switch. Note that the speed will be downgraded to 10 Mbps when using Extend Mode.

Priority Mode

Priority Mode ensures high-quality video or voice data transmission for ports 1-2. To enable Priority Mode, press the "PRIORITY" button on the switch.

FAQs

Q: I want to set up 4 PoE IP security camera network with this switch, Blue Iris, and a laptop computer. Do I need an NVR or other hardware?

A: This switch can handle multiple PoE IP cameras, and Blue Iris can help manage the cameras. However, the performance of continuous recording might be affected by the PC used. If you haven't purchased any equipment yet, consider looking into CCTV systems as an alternative, as they can provide continuous recording and remote monitoring with a dedicated DVR.

Q: What voltage output PoE does this switch provide: 24V or 48V? I have a 48V phone, a 24V camera, and a 24V access point that I need power.

A: This switch supports the IEEE 802.3at/af PoE standards, which supply power at 48V. For 24V devices, you may need a PoE converter to make them compatible with the switch.

Q: Can I use this switch PoE for powering two TL-WA7210N devices?

A: The switch should be able to power the devices if they are compatible with the IEEE 802.3at/af PoE standards.

Q: Can I use the included power supply with a PoE injector and power this device from far away using UTP cable?

A: No, the TL-SF1005P is not a PoE Powered Device. The included power supply must be used to power the switch.

Q: What if you don't need power, and only Ethernet on one device?

A: You still need to provide power to the unit for internal electronics. It will work for what you want to do with ports to spare.

Q: Would I need the Gigabit Version for a 1080P camera to NVR or would the 100 Mbps version work? Also, can this be used as an Ethernet Switch without PoE?

A: Many 1080p cameras don't support more than 100 Mbps, so the 100 Mbps version may be sufficient. However, it depends on your specific setup and usage requirements. Yes, this switch can be used with non-PoE devices, even on the PoE ports.

Q: Can this switch be used for a 4 PoE IP security camera network with Blue Iris and a laptop computer, or do I need additional hardware like an NVR?
A: The switch can handle up to 4 PoE IP cameras and works well with Blue Iris and a laptop computer. However, if you haven't purchased any equipment yet, it may be more cost-effective to consider a CCTV system instead.

Q: What voltage output PoE does this switch provide, 24v or 48v? I have a 48 volt phone, a 24 volt camera, and a 24 volt access point that I need power for.
A: This switch provides PoE power according to the IEEE 802.3af/at standards, which deliver 48 volts. If you have a 24 volt device, you may need a PoE converter to use it with this switch.

Q: Is this switch compatible with the TL-POE200 splitter? My splitter's power LED does not illuminate when used with this device.
A: It should be compatible, but you may want to test it by plugging a device into the splitter to see if it works properly.

Q: Can I use this switch's PoE to power two TL-WA7210N devices?
A: The power requirements of the TL-WA7210N devices may exceed what this switch can provide. It's best to check the power specifications of your devices before using them with this switch.

Q: Can I use the included power supply with a PoE injector to power this device from far away using UTP cable?
A: No, this switch is not a PoE Powered Device and must be powered using the included power supply. It cannot be powered via PoE.

Q: What if I don't need power, and only Ethernet on one device?
A: Even if you don't need PoE, you still need to provide power to the switch for its internal electronics to function. However, you can use the non-PoE port for your Ethernet-only device.

Q: Would I need the Gigabit version of this switch for a 1080p camera to NVR, or would the 100Mbps version work? Can this switch be used as an Ethernet switch without PoE?
A: It depends on the number of cameras and their specifications. Many 1080p cameras don't support more than 100Mbps, so the 100Mbps version of this switch may be sufficient. However, if you have multiple cameras or high-resolution requirements, the Gigabit version may be necessary. This switch can be used as an Ethernet switch without PoE.

Q: The box says "up to 200Mbps" but this switch is listed as 10/100. Will it be a bottleneck on a 200Mbps connection?
A: The switching capacity of the switch is 1Gbps, so it should not be a bottleneck for a 200Mbps connection.

Q: Is this switch rackmountable?
A: This switch is not 19 inches wide, but it does come with additional pieces that can be used to mount it in a rack. It is considered a standard desktop switch.
