Built for rack-mount camera and AP installs

FAQs

How many PoE devices can the TL-SG1218MP power?
Ports 1 to 16 are PoE+, sharing a 250 W budget. Divide 250 W by each device's max draw to size the job.
Is it managed?
No. It is unmanaged and works out of the box, with no web interface or VLAN support.
Does it come with rack ears?
Yes. A rackmount kit is included for a 19-inch rack, plus rubber feet for a shelf.
What do the combo SFP slots do?
They are combo Gigabit SFP slots, so each can carry a fiber module for an uplink or between buildings.
Does it have a fan?
Yes, two. Expect fan noise in a closet; it is not a silent desktop unit.
