TP-Link TL-SF1005P - Unmanaged 5-Port 10/100 Desktop Switch with 4 PoE Ports, Black

The TP-LINK TL-SF1005P is an unmanaged desktop switch that provides data connectivity and power over a single Ethernet cable. It features five 10/100 Mbps RJ45 ports, four of which are designated for Power over Ethernet (PoE). The unit provides a 58W PoE budget, allowing for the connection of several low-power networked devices. Each PoE port supports the IEEE 802.3af standard, delivering up to 15.4W at a nominal 48V. This switch is suited for small-scale network expansions where external power outlets are limited. Its 10/100 Mbit/s data rates ensure reliable transmission for standard office hardware or surveillance equipment.

Housed in a metal chassis, the switch is designed for desktop placement in various work environments. The fanless design ensures silent operation, making it suitable for quiet offices or homes. Installation is straightforward, as the device is plug-and-play and requires no software configuration. It is compatible with IEEE 802.3af-compliant devices, such as IP cameras, access points, and IP phones. For traffic management, the device includes IGMP snooping to optimise multicast data delivery. Auto-negotiation and auto MDI/MDI-X support on all ports eliminate the need for crossover cables or manual settings. Its 1 Gbit/s switching capacity handles the total traffic flow across the five ports without congestion.

• 2,000-entry MAC address table — Manages device identification for traffic routing across the network.
• IEEE 802.3x flow control — Prevents data packet loss during high-traffic periods in full-duplex mode.
• Cabling compatibility — Supports standard 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX wiring.
• 5.73 BTU/h heat dissipation — Maintains low operating temperatures without internal cooling fans.
• Full-duplex communication — Enables simultaneous two-way data transmission and reception on every port.
• Multiple cable support — Operates with Cat3, Cat4, Cat5, and Cat5e cables.
• Auto-sensing — Automatically detects the speed and power requirements of connected hardware.
