TP-Link TL-SG3428MP 24 Port Gigabit L2+ Managed PoE Switch

The TP-Link JetStream TL-SG3428MP is, above all, a powerful and feature-rich 28-Port Gigabit L2+ Managed Switch with 24-Port PoE+. Consequently, it is specifically designed for robust and scalable network deployments, particularly in medium to large-sized businesses, enterprises, and demanding surveillance environments. As a fully managed switch, therefore, it offers a comprehensive suite of advanced Layer 2 and some Layer 3 features, along with seamless integration into TP-Link’s Omada Software Defined Networking (SDN) platform.

To begin with, its Extensive Gigabit Connectivity with High-Power PoE+ is a major highlight:Specifically, it boasts 24 x 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 Ports with PoE+. These are, therefore, the core ports, all robustly supporting the 802.3at/af PoE+ standard, capable of delivering up to 30W of power per port. This ample supply, in turn, readily supports a high density of PoE-powered devices. Furthermore, it includes 4 x Gigabit SFP Slots. to a core network, servers, or other fiber-connected segments, provided you use compatible SFP modules. The total port count, as a result, reaches 28 (24 PoE+ RJ45 + 4 SFP).

This allows you to manage the entire network (access points, switches, gateways) from a single interface, anywhere, anytime, via the cloud-based Omada Controller or Omada app. Secondly, Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP). This dramatically simplifies deployment by automatically configuring devices once they are connected to the network, effectively eliminating manual setup. Thirdly, Intelligent Monitoring. This provides comprehensive network visibility, status updates, and abnormal event warnings. Finally, Batch Configuration & Firmware Upgrading further streamlines network maintenance.

Additionally, Port Security limits the number of MAC addresses on a port to prevent unauthorized access. Moreover, DoS Defend protects against Denial-of-Service attacks. Significantly, 802.1X Authentication integrates with RADIUS/TACACS+ servers for secure, port-based authentication. To prevent network vulnerabilities, DHCP Snooping actively prevents rogue DHCP servers. Finally, Port Isolation isolates traffic between specific ports for enhanced security.
