The TP-Link TL-SG2428P JetStream 28-Port Gigabit Smart Switch is a high-performance, business-grade solution tailored for modern network infrastructures. With 24 Gigabit PoE+ ports, compliant with 802.3at/af standards, and a generous 250W power budget, it efficiently powers IP-based devices such as wireless access points, VoIP phones, and IP surveillance cameras, eliminating the need for separate power lines. Furthermore, the switch includes four dedicated Gigabit SFP slots for high-speed fiber uplinks, delivering a 56 Gbps switching capacity to guarantee stable and non-blocking performance, even under heavy network traffic.
This smart switch integrates effortlessly with the TP-Link Omada SDN (Software Defined Networking) platform, offering flexible cloud-based management via the Omada app, web GUI, or hardware controller. This unified approach allows for centralized control, real-time monitoring, and intelligent traffic optimization from virtually anywhere. Built-in Layer 2+ features such as static routing, VLAN (up to 4,000 entries), QoS (Quality of Service), IGMP Snooping, and Port Mirroring ensure precise traffic segmentation, improved security, and consistent performance across all connected devices.
Additionally, smart capabilities like PoE Auto Recovery—which automatically reboots unresponsive PoE-powered devices—and Extend Mode, enabling up to 250 meters PoE transmission, offer unmatched flexibility in complex deployment scenarios. Other features like Loop Prevention and Storm Control protect the network from common configuration or hardware faults, ensuring high reliability.
The TL-SG2428P’s sturdy rack-mountable metal chassis and active fan cooling system guarantee long-term durability, though some users may notice minor fan noise in ultra-quiet settings. Still, with a lifetime limited warranty and superior power distribution, this switch proves ideal for surveillance setups, office VoIP systems, and SMB networks demanding both performance and simplicity
