How many devices can this switch power simultaneously?

The TL-SG1428PE can power up to 24 PoE+ devices with a total 250W budget (30W per port). Actual device count depends on individual power consumption. For example, standard IP cameras typically consume 10-15W, allowing 16-25 simultaneous cameras within the power budget.

What is the maximum cable distance for PoE+ connections?

PoE+ operates over standard Gigabit Ethernet cabling up to 100 meters (328 feet) using UTP category 5e, 6, or above cable per EIA/TIA-568 standards. This distance applies to both data and power delivery, eliminating need for separate power infrastructure.

Does this switch support fiber connections?

Yes. The TL-SG1428PE includes 2 Gigabit SFP fiber uplink ports supporting both multimode (MMF) and single-mode (SMF) fiber. These enable long-distance network extensions and redundant uplinks to core infrastructure without distance limitations.

What management capabilities are included?

The Easy Smart management provides web-based GUI configuration, VLAN support (32 simultaneous VLANs), QoS with 4 priority queues, IGMP Snooping, static link aggregation, port mirroring, cable diagnostics, and loop prevention. No additional software licensing required.

What is the maximum power consumption?

Maximum power draw is 304.7W with 250W PoE devices connected. Without connected PoE devices, consumption drops to 27W. The internal power supply operates on 100-240V AC, 50/60 Hz, suitable for global deployments.

Is this switch suitable for outdoor surveillance deployments?

The operating temperature range of 0-50°C (32-122°F) with 10-90% non-condensing humidity supports most indoor and protected outdoor environments. For extreme outdoor conditions, additional environmental enclosures are recommended.

What networking standards does this switch support?

The TL-SG1428PE supports IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab, 802.3x, 802.3af/at (PoE), 802.1q (VLAN), and 802.1p (QoS). These standards ensure broad compatibility with enterprise networking equipment and protocols.
