TP-Link TL-SL1218MP | 16-Port PoE+ Switch for Surveillance
The TP-Link TL-SL1218MP 16-Port Metal 10/100Mbps + 2-Port Gigabit Unmanaged PoE Switch (192W) delivers high-power PoE+ delivery and extended reach, making it ideal for small to medium business surveillance systems. With up to 192W total budget and 250m transmission in extend mode, it simplifies large-area IP camera deployments.

High PoE Power for Multiple Cameras
The switch complies with 802.3af/at standards and supplies up to 30W per port. With a 192W total budget, it can power multiple high-wattage cameras, PTZ units, or access points without overloading. This makes it suitable for expanding surveillance networks without adding extra injectors or power supplies.
Extended Transmission for Large Sites
In extend mode, the TL-SL1218MP maintains both data and PoE delivery up to 250m—four times the standard 100m Ethernet limit. This is especially useful for covering large warehouses, car parks, or campus perimeters where cameras are spaced far apart, reducing the need for additional switches or repeaters.
Video Traffic Prioritised
Priority mode ensures surveillance video streams receive preferential bandwidth, even during network congestion. This keeps footage smooth and reduces packet loss, which is critical for security monitoring where missing frames could mean missing vital evidence.
Simple Deployment with Hardware Control
As an unmanaged switch, it requires no configuration or login. A hardware switch toggles between standard and extend modes, making setup fast for installers. The metal housing and dual fans provide durability and passive cooling for 24/7 operation in demanding environments.
