Technical Specifications

Advanced Network Security Features

This switch includes comprehensive security protocols to protect your network infrastructure. IP-MAC-Port-VID binding prevents unauthorized devices from accessing your network by ensuring only approved combinations can connect. Port security limits the number of MAC addresses per port, while storm control prevents broadcast storms that could overwhelm your network. DHCP snooping validates DHCP messages and builds a trusted binding table, protecting against rogue DHCP servers. The integrated DoS attack prevention makes defending against common threats straightforward without complex configuration.

Cloud-Ready Software Defined Networking

As part of TP-Link’s Omada SDN ecosystem, this switch integrates seamlessly with access points and gateways through centralized cloud management. The intuitive Omada Controller interface allows complete network oversight from anywhere, making it ideal for distributed environments like retail chains, educational campuses, and hospitality venues. Configure VLANs, QoS policies, and security settings across your entire network infrastructure from a single dashboard, eliminating the need for individual device management and reducing operational complexity.

Enterprise-Grade Performance and Reliability

With a 20 Gbps switching capacity and 14.9 Mpps forwarding rate, this switch handles demanding network traffic with ease. The 8000-entry MAC address table supports extensive device connectivity, while 4.1 MB packet buffer memory ensures smooth data flow during peak usage. Store-and-forward architecture provides error checking for reliable packet delivery, and support for 9000-byte jumbo frames optimizes performance for bandwidth-intensive applications like video streaming and large file transfers. The fanless design ensures silent operation while maintaining consistent performance.

Comprehensive IPv6 Support

Future-proof your network with extensive IPv6 capabilities including dual IPv4/IPv6 stack operation, MLD snooping for efficient multicast handling, and IPv6 ACL for security policy enforcement. The switch supports DHCPv6 snooping, IPv6 Telnet, ping, and tracert for complete IPv6 network management. Path MTU Discovery and IPv6 Neighbor Discovery ensure optimal routing and connectivity in modern network environments, making this switch ready for the transition to next-generation networking without requiring hardware upgrades.
