TP-Link 8-Port Gigabit Smart Switch with PoE+

TP-Link TL-SG2008P | Managed PoE+ Smart Switch

The TP-Link TL-SG2008P delivers eight gigabit ports with four PoE+ capable ports, making it ideal for powering IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points without extra power injectors. Its managed L2+ capabilities and Omada SDN integration provide businesses with scalable, secure, and centrally controlled networking.

Key Specifications

Smart Power for IP Devices

Four PoE+ ports supply up to 62 W total, enough to run multiple IP cameras or access points from a single switch. This eliminates the need for separate power supplies, reduces cable clutter, and simplifies installation in small offices or retail spaces.

Enterprise-Grade Management

As a managed L2+ switch, it supports VLAN segmentation, QoS prioritisation, port mirroring, and IGMP snooping for multicast traffic. The web interface and Omada app allow configuration, monitoring, and client management from anywhere, while SNMP ensures compatibility with existing network monitoring tools.

Built for Reliability

Fanless metal chassis ensures silent operation and durability. With a 9000-byte jumbo frame support and 8000 MAC address table, it handles high-bandwidth applications and large device counts without performance loss. Broadcast storm control and MAC-based authentication add further network protection.

Omada SDN Integration

Part of TP-Link’s Omada ecosystem, this switch can be centrally managed alongside access points and gateways via the Omada SDN controller. This delivers unified visibility, streamlined provisioning, and consistent security policies across the entire network.
