TP-Link TL-SG1016PE - 16-Port Managed Gigabit PoE+ Switch

The TP-Link TL-SG1016PE is a 16-port Gigabit PoE+ managed switch designed to transmit power and data over a single Ethernet cable. This Layer 2 switch provides a total PoE budget of 110 W across eight dedicated PoE+ ports. These ports comply with IEEE 802.3af/at standards, each supplying up to 30 W to connected devices. All 16 ports support 10/100/1000 Mbit/s speeds for local network data transfer. This setup simplifies infrastructure by eliminating the need for separate power adapters for devices such as IP cameras, while the remaining eight ports provide standard connectivity for non-powered equipment.

The metal-housed switch is suitable for 1U rack-mount or desktop installation. It is managed via a web-based interface and supports network segmentation with up to 4,000 VLANs. For traffic optimization, the hardware includes IGMP snooping and Quality of Service (QoS) protocols. Broadcast storm control and flow control are integrated to maintain stability during high-traffic periods, and an internal fan manages heat dissipation. Link aggregation and port mirroring are also available for increased bandwidth and traffic monitoring.

• 32 Gbit/s switching capacity – Handles aggregate data across all 16 ports.
• 8,000-entry MAC address table – Supports efficient packet routing for multiple devices.
• 10,000-byte jumbo frame support – Increases efficiency for large data transfers.
• 4.1 MB packet buffer memory – Maintains data flow and reduces packet loss during network congestion.
• 23.8 Mpps forwarding rate – Ensures low-latency data transmission.
• Plug-and-play operation – Enables immediate device connectivity without manual configuration.
• Rate limiting – Provides bandwidth control for individual ports.
