TP-Link TL-SF1008P 8-Port 10/100Mbps Desktop Switch with 4-Port PoE+

Effortless Network Expansion with Integrated Power

The TL-SF1008P is an 8-port 10/100Mbps desktop switch featuring 4 built-in PoE ports. This unmanaged switch delivers both data and power over a single Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for separate power sources. As a result, you can extend your network to locations without power outlets, making it ideal for installing devices such as access points, IP cameras, and IP phones.

Powerful PoE Capability

The TL-SF1008P provides comprehensive Power over Ethernet functionality:

• 4 dedicated PoE ports (ports 1-4) supporting the IEEE 802.3af standard
• Up to 15.4W power delivery per PoE port
• Total PoE budget of 57W across all ports
• Automatic detection and power supply to compatible devices
• Smart power management through port priority (ports 1, 2, 3 > port 4)

This robust power delivery system allows the TL-SF1008P to handle multiple power-hungry devices simultaneously while maintaining network stability.

Intelligent Overload Protection

When power demands exceed capacity, the TL-SF1008P utilizes an intelligent priority system to protect your network. If total power consumption reaches or exceeds 57W, the switch automatically prioritizes ports 1-3 over port 4. This ensures critical devices remain powered while preventing system-wide failures due to overloads.

For instance, if ports 1, 2, and 4 are each consuming 15.4W (totaling 46.2W) and a new 12W device connects to port 3, the TL-SF1008P will maintain power to ports 1, 2, and 3 while cutting power to the lower-priority port 4.

Plug-and-Play Simplicity

The TL-SF1008P requires no configuration or complex installation procedures. Simply connect your devices, and the switch automatically:

• Detects and supplies power to PoE-compatible devices
• Negotiates optimal connection speeds (10/100Mbps)
• Adapts to cable types with Auto-MDI/MDIX support
• Manages traffic flow with store-and-forward packet switching

Reliable Performance

The TL-SF1008P delivers dependable networking performance through several key features:

• 1.6Gbps switching capacity for smooth data transfer
• Store-and-forward switching to prevent error propagation
• 2K MAC address table with auto-learning and auto-aging
• Flow control to prevent packet loss during congestion
• Fanless design for silent operation

Compact and Versatile Design

With dimensions of just 6.7 × 3.9 × 1.1 inches (171 × 98 × 27mm), the TL-SF1008P fits comfortably on desktops or in small installation spaces. Its durable metal housing provides excellent heat dissipation without requiring fans, ensuring silent operation in noise-sensitive environments.

Ideal Users

The TL-SF1008P is particularly well-suited for:

• Small business owners needing to deploy multiple IP devices without additional wiring
• Home network enthusiasts looking to add IP cameras or access points in locations without power outlets
• IT professionals requiring reliable power delivery for critical network endpoints
• Office environments seeking a compact, quiet network switch solution
