The TP-LINK TL-SF1008P 8-port desktop switch is an ideal choice for all users who are looking for a reliable, fast and easy-to-use network device. The four PoE (Power over Ethernet) ports allow you to power various IP-based devices, such as IP cameras or VoIP phones, using the Ethernet cable, thereby reducing cabling costs and increasing system flexibility.

Operation
The TL-SF1008P is an unmanaged switch with 8 10/100 Mbps connectors that does not require configuration and has 4 PoE (Power over Ethernet) connectors. As a result, any IEEE 802.3af compatible device can be automatically detected and supplied with power. In such cases, power is transmitted along with data on a single cable, allowing you to expand your network and deploy devices such as APs, IP cameras or IP phones.

Power over Ethernet
4 of the switch's 8 connectors (1-4 ports) support the Power over Ethernet (PoE) function. As a result, any IEEE 802.3af compatible device can be automatically detected and supplied with power.

Overload prioritization
One of the higher priority tasks of the TL-SF1008P is to protect the system when the power supply would be overloaded. If the consumption of all PoE devices is greater than or equal to 57W, the more important ports will be prioritized, and the lower priority ports will lose power.

Port priority function
Priority (Port 1 > Port 2 > Port 3 > Port 4): This function protects the system when the power supply becomes overloaded. For example, if ports 1, 2, and 4 use 15.4W (maximum power per port is 15.4W), the total system power is 46.2W. If there is an additional device connected to port 3 with a power of 12W, then the system will stop powering port 4 due to overcharging, which means that ports 1, 2 will use 15.4W and port 3 will use 10W, powering port 4 will be stopped.

Ease of use
The TL-SF1008P is easy to set up and use. No need to configure or install. With its desktop design, outstanding performance and quality, the TP-LINK TL-SF1008P 8-port 10/100 switch with 4 PoE ports is a great choice for expanding your home or office network.
