Connection
This section describes how to connect the switch to your network.
Components:
- AC Power Cord
- DC Power Adapter (rated 53.5V 1.31A)
Connections:
Connect the AC Power Cord to the DC Power Adapter, and then connect the adapter to the switch's DC power port. Connect the switch to your network via Ethernet Ports (1-8) or SFP Slots (SFP1, SFP2).
Diagram Description:
The diagram shows the switch with its ports. An AC power cord connects to a DC power adapter, which then connects to the switch. The switch has Ethernet ports labeled 1-8 and SFP slots labeled SFP1 and SFP2. The switch is shown connected to various PoE devices such as a PC, IP Camera, Access Point (AP), and IP Phone, as well as the Internet.
Notes:
- PoE ports can connect to non-PoE devices, but will only transmit data.
- Maximum PoE power per port is 30 W. The total PoE power budget is 62 W for TL-SG2008P, 61 W for TL-SG2210P, and 120 W for TL-SG2016P.
- PoE budget calculations are based on laboratory testing. Actual power budget may vary due to client limitations and environmental factors.
Configuration
The switch supports two configuration methods:
- Standalone Mode: Configure and manage the switch individually.
- Controller Mode: Configure and manage network devices centrally. Recommended for large-scale networks with multiple devices like access points, switches, and gateways.
Note: Changing from Standalone Mode to Controller Mode will reset the switch's configurations. Refer to the TP-Link support website for related documents: https://www.tp-link.com/support/download/.
Method 1: Standalone Mode
Use a computer to configure and manage the switch.
Diagram Description: A PC is shown connected to the switch.
- To access the management page, open a web browser and enter the switch's IP address. If the switch obtained an IP address from a DHCP server (e.g., a router), find it on the DHCP server. Otherwise, use the default IP address:
192.168.0.1. - Log in using the username "admin" and password "admin" (all lowercase). It is recommended to change the password upon first login for security.
- After successful login, the main page appears, allowing configuration via menus.
For detailed configurations, refer to the User Guide and CLI Guide available on the TP-Link download center: https://www.tp-link.com/support/download/.
Method 2: Controller Mode
Choose from two types of Omada Controllers:
Type 1: Omada Hardware Controller (OC200/OC300)
This is an option if a dedicated PC is not available for the Omada Software Controller. It requires separate purchase. Refer to the OC200/OC300 Installation Guide for details.
Network Requirements:
- Ensure devices are powered up and connected according to the topology.
- A DHCP server (usually a router) is needed to assign IP addresses to Omada devices and clients.
- The Omada Controller must have network access to Omada devices (router, switch, EAPs) for discovery, adoption, and management.
Diagram Description: A network topology is shown with a Router, Switch, Omada Hardware Controller (OC200/OC300), multiple EAPs (Access Points), and Clients. Connections are indicated between these devices.
Type 2: Omada Software Controller
Download the Omada Software Controller for Windows or Linux from https://www.tp-link.com/support/download/omada-software-controller/. Install and launch it. The controller must remain running on the PC for device management.
Diagram Description: A network topology is shown with a Router, Switch, Omada Software Controller running on a Host PC, multiple EAPs (Access Points), and Clients. Connections are indicated between these devices.
Management Interface Options:
Type 1: Via Web Browser
For Omada Software Controller: Launch the controller on your PC. Its web page should open automatically. If not, click "Launch a Browser to Manage the Network".
For Omada Hardware Controller: The controller gets its IP address from the router's DHCP server. To find it:
- Find the router's IP address by opening a command line on your PC, typing
ipconfig, and locating the "Default Gateway". - Open a web browser, enter the router's IP address, and log in (default credentials: username "admin", password "admin"). Navigate to Network > LAN > DHCP Client List to find the controller's IP address using its MAC address.
- Enter the controller's IP address in the browser's address bar to open its management page.
Once the controller's page is open:
- Follow the wizard for quick setup.
- Log in with your created username and password to configure the controller further.
- For remote management, use Omada Cloud Service. Ensure both controller and PC have internet access.
Note: For Omada Software Controller, refer to its User Guide. For Omada Hardware Controller, ensure Cloud Access is enabled (Cloud LED flashing slowly). Access via https://omada.tplinkcloud.com/, log in with your TP-Link ID, click "+ Add Controller", and select "Hardware Controller".
Type 2: Via Omada App
Download the TP-Link Omada App from the App Store or Google Play.
Diagram Description: Icons for the App Store and Google Play are shown, indicating where to download the TP-Link Omada App.
Local Management:
- Connect your mobile device to the EAP using the default SSID (e.g., TP-Link_2.4GHz/5GHz_XXXXXX).
- Launch the Omada App, go to "Local Access", tap the "+" button (top-right) to add the controller and configure it.
Remote Management:
Ensure controller and mobile device have internet access.
- For Omada Software Controller: Ensure Cloud Access is enabled and the controller is bound to your TP-Link ID. Log into the Omada App with your TP-Link ID, go to "Cloud Access", and select your controller from the list.
- For Omada Hardware Controller: Ensure Cloud Access is enabled (Cloud LED flashing slowly). Log into the Omada App with your TP-Link ID, go to "Cloud Access", tap "+" to add your controller, and configure it.
