TP-LINK Gigabit Smart Switch, designed for workgroups and departments, provides

wire-speed performance and abundant layer 2 management features. It provides a

variety of service features and multiple powerful functions with high security.

The EIA-standardized framework and smart configuration capacity can provide flexible

solutions for a variable scale of networks. QoS and IGMP snooping/filtering optimize

voice and video application. Link aggregation increases aggregated bandwidth,

optimizing the transport of business critical data. SNMP, RMON, WEB/Telnet Log-in

bring abundant management policies (TL-SG2452 doesn't support the Telnet function).

TP-LINK Gigabit Smart Switch integrates multiple functions with excellent performance,

and is friendly to manage, which can fully meet the need of the users demanding

higher networking performance.

TL-SG2424P Smart PoE Switch is also a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE*). All the Auto-

Negotiation RJ45 ports on the switch support Power over Ethernet (PoE*) function,

which can automatically detect and supply power with those powered devices (PDs*)

complying with IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at.

*PSE: a device (switch or hub for instance) that will provide power in a PoE setup.

*PoE: This technology describes a system to transmit electrical power, along with data,

to remote devices over standard twisted-pair cable in an Ethernet.

*PD: a device powered by a PSE and thus consumes energy. Examples include

powering IP telephones, wireless LAN access points, network cameras, network hubs,

embedded computers etc.

TL-SG2424P has an LED mode switch button which is for switching the LED

status indication. When the Speed LED is on, the port LED is indicating the data

transmission rate. When the PoE LED is on, the port LED is indicating the power

supply status. By default the Speed LED is on. Pressing the mode switch button, the

Speed LED will turn off and the PoE LED will light up. Then the PoE LED will turn off

after being on for 60 seconds and the Speed LED will light up again.

When the Speed LED is on, the port LED is indicating the data transmission rate.

Note:For TL-SG2216/TL-SG2424/TL-SG2424P, when using the SFP port with a

100M module or a gigabit module, you need to log on to the GUI (Graphical User

Interface) of the Switch and congure its corresponding Speed and Duplex mode on

Switching→Port→Port Config page. For 100M module, please select 100MFD

while select 1000MFD for gigabit module. By default, the Speed and Duplex mode of

SFP port is 1000MFD. TL-SG2452 supports 1000M SFP module connection only.
