The TP-Link SG2218P is a Smart JetStream series switch equipped with 16 gigabit Ethernet ports (10/100/1000 Mbps) and 2 SFP slots. All Ethernet ports feature PoE+ (802.3 af/at) power output, with a maximum power output per port of 15.4 W using 802.3 af or 30 W using 802.3 at. The total power budget for the entire device is 150 W. The switch supports Layer 2 management features and basic Layer 3 functions. It includes features such as QoS, link aggregation, spanning tree protocols, multicasting (IGMP / MLD Snooping), access control, and VLANs. Additionally, the device is compatible with the Omada system, allowing centralized management. The switch features active cooling and is designed for mounting in a 19" rack cabinet.

16 gigabit Ethernet pots, 2 SFP slots, 16 PoE+ outputs

The switch is equipped with 16 gigabit Ethernet ports (10/100/1000 Mbps) and 2 SFP slots (1 Gbps). Each Ethernet port features PoE+ (802.3 af/at) power output, with a maximum power output per port of 15.4 W using 802.3 af or 30 W using 802.3 at. The total power budget is 150 W. The PoE+ standard is widely used in telecommunications, including IP cameras, VoIP phones, and access points. The use of SFP slots allows for connection using fiber optic cables, which provide a much greater range than Ethernet cables.

Multiple uses

The device is ideal for use in large networks as an access switch to which you can connect end devices. The SFP slot allows you to bring the signal from the main/aggregation switch, and you can use the second slot to transmit the signal to the next access switch. Thanks to the PoE+ standard, it can support most devices using PoE power. The SG2218P has rich management features and can easily function as the main/sole switch in a smaller network (e.g., a restaurant).

Access control

You can utilize Access Control Lists (ACLs), with a maximum of 230 entries.

QoS function

It allows for bandwidth control, enabling the creation of up to 8 priority queues. This assigns priority to the most important actions taken by users, thereby enhancing the overall quality of transmission.

VLAN support

The switch allows for the segmentation of VLANs to simplify management of device groups and enhance network security.

Omada SDN

The SDN platform serves to integrate all compatible devices and provides centralized management from the cloud. You can create a very large network that you'll manage from a single interface. The key advantage of Omada SDN is its high scalability. Expanding the network with additional segments or interfaces is straightforward and doesn't involve significant downtime.

Omada application

You can use the Omada mobile application available for Android and iOS devices for management and configuration. The initial setup consists of a few simple steps, which the application will guide you through quickly. You can manage the SG2218P in both standalone mode and controller mode.
