Connection
The connection diagram illustrates a TP-Link switch. Ethernet Ports (1-8) are shown on one side, connecting to devices. An 'Internet' source connects to the switch. A 'PC' also connects to the switch. A 'DC Power Adapter' is connected to the switch, powered by an 'AC Power Cord'. 'PoE Ports (1-4)' are highlighted. Various 'PoE Devices' like an 'IP Camera', 'AP', and 'IP Phone' are depicted connecting to the PoE ports.
Note:
- The TL-SL1210MP has two uplink ports, which typically connect to uplink devices like routers. Uplink 1 is an SFP port and works with a 1000 Mbps SFP module. Uplink 2 is an RJ45 port.
- PoE ports can also connect to non-PoE devices, but only transmit data.
- PoE power budgets: TL-SF1008LP can supply up to 15.4 W for each PoE port and 41 W for all PoE ports. TL-SF1008P can supply up to 30 W for each PoE port and 66 W for all PoE ports. TL-SF1009P can supply up to 30 W for each PoE port and 65 W for all PoE ports. TL-SL1210MP can supply up to 30 W for each PoE port and 124 W for all PoE ports.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1. The Power LED is not lit.
The Power LED should be lit when the power system is working normally. If the Power LED is not lit, please check as follows:
- Make sure the AC power cord is connected to the switch with the power source properly.
- Make sure the voltage of the power supply meets the requirements of the input voltage of the switch.
- Make sure the power source is on.
Q2. The Link/Act LED is not lit when a device is connected to the corresponding port.
It is recommended that you check the following items:
- Make sure that the cable connectors are firmly plugged into the switch and the device.
- Make sure the connected device is turned on and working well.
- The cable must be less than 100 meters long (328 feet). If Extend Mode is enabled, it should be less than 250 meters (820 feet).
Q3. Why are PoE ports not supplying power for PoE devices?
When the total power consumption of connected PoE devices exceeds the maximum, the PoE port with a smaller port number has a higher priority. The system will cut off power to the ports with larger port numbers to ensure supplying to other ports. Take TL-SF1008P as an example. If port 1, 2 and 4 are consuming 15.4 W respectively, and an additional PoE device with 20 W is inserted to port 3, the system will cut off the power of port 4 to compensate for the overload.
