TP-Link TL-SG1428PE 24 Port Gigabit PoE+ Switch - Easy Smart Managed, 24 PoE+ Ports @250W, 2 SFP Slots, Auto Recovery, QoS, VLAN, IGMP, LAG

The TP-Link TL-SG1218MP has been a solid addition to my home camera setup. I am using it to power and switch the IP cameras feeding into my Frigate NVR, and it has handled the job without any issues since I put it in service. Power delivery to the cameras has been consistent and reliable. With 250W of PoE+ budget across 16 ports, there is plenty of headroom for a typical camera deployment with room to grow. All my cameras came up right away and have been running steady since. Handles all 16 ports with no lag or speed issues. Heat management is better than I expected. The steel chassis stays relatively cool even with multiple PoE devices pulling power, which is reassuring for a switch that runs around the clock. The build quality feels appropriately industrial, and the rack mount form factor fits cleanly into a standard setup. Setup was genuinely plug and play. No configuration was needed for my use case, just power it up, plug things in, and go. The two uplink ports and combo SFP slots are nice to have if you need to expand or connect to a larger network down the road. For anyone building out a camera system or needing PoE for access points and other devices, this switch does exactly what it should without any fuss. TP-Link delivered a practical piece of network gear that just works at a decent price point.

Great switch. POE works wonderfully.

Works exactly as advertised. I used it to power several Ubiquiti cameras and Wi-Fi devices as part of my home network setup, and it handled everything without issue. Setup was truly plug-and-play, and the build feels sturdy enough for long-term use. One thing to note: the internal fan does kick in and can be noticeably loud, especially in quiet environments. If you're planning to use this in a home setting, make sure to install it somewhere the noise won’t be a distraction—like a garage, utility closet, or network cabinet. Overall, great value for the functionality. Just plan your placement accordingly.

Seems to be working ok. The only down side is fan noise that is always on. Though I have it installed in the laundry room. I would think the fan should cycle on and off if it developed more internal heat during current draw. Maybe that will be in next design.

Easy to deploy. Easy fiber uplink. Reliable. So far so good.

Bought (4) of these. Within two weeks, (2) of the units died completely. No power at all. Waiting to hear back from TP-Link after registering the units and submitting a claim for replacement.

I bought this to replace an older Juniper switch I was using to power my network. The Juniper had 24 ports but I wasn’t using 10 of them so I figured I could bump it down to 18 to save some money. This switch is about a third of the size of my old switch and vastly quieter. The boot up time is MUCH faster as well, which was a huge disappointment with my last switch because if the power would go out for even a second, it would be almost 10 minutes before my access points came back online. The one thing I haven’t been able to get to is the GUI because I haven’t figured out the IP that my router assigned to it, but even without getting into it, I can see it’s smart enough to know which ports to send POE on and which don’t. Very satisfied with this switch and highly recommend if you need POE in a compact design.

I'm not a tech guy, so I can't really talk to the features and metrics, but if you need a basic, good switch, then this more than does the job

From yesterday sometime Hanging My all camera stop.

Great POE Switch. Runs POE phones with no issues.

Nice Clarity for my CC TV PoE
