Description
TP-Link Omada SG2005P-PD 5-Port Gigabit PoE Passthrough Outdoor Smart Switch
The TP-Link Omada SG2005P-PD is a compact 5-port Gigabit outdoor smart switch with PoE passthrough — purpose-built for extending PoE power and data to IP cameras, access points, and other PoE devices beyond the standard 100-metre Ethernet limit. By receiving PoE++ power on its single upstream port and distributing it across four downstream PoE+ ports, it doubles the effective PoE transmission distance to 200 metres without losing Gigabit speeds — eliminating the need for a mains power outlet at the remote installation point. With an IP55 weatherproof enclosure, 4KV lightning protection, -40°C to 60°C operating range, and Omada SDN integration, it’s the ideal solution for remote outdoor camera and AP installations across Australian commercial, agricultural, and industrial sites.

Key Features
-
PoE Passthrough — Up to 200m Range — Receives PoE++ power on the upstream port and passes it through to four downstream PoE+ ports, doubling the effective PoE transmission distance from 100m to 200m at full Gigabit speed — no mains power required at the remote switch location.
-
1 × Gigabit PoE++ In Port (802.3bt) — Upstream port accepts PoE++ power from a compatible 802.3bt Type 3 (60W) or Type 4 (90W) PoE switch or injector to power the switch and its downstream devices.
-
4 × Gigabit PoE+ Out Ports — Distributes PoE+ power to up to four downstream devices — IP cameras, access points, VoIP phones, or other PoE devices — with a shared PoE budget dependent on upstream power input.
-
Flexible PoE Budget — PoE output budget scales with upstream power: up to 64W (90W input), 44W (60W input), 19W (30W input), or 6W (15W input).**
-
IP55 Weatherproof Enclosure — Rated IP55 for protection against dust and water jets from any direction — suitable for outdoor mounting in all Australian weather conditions.
-
4KV Lightning Protection — Built-in surge protection on all ports guards against lightning-induced voltage spikes — critical for outdoor installations in Australian storm-prone regions.
-
-40°C to 60°C Operating Range — Operates reliably across extreme temperature ranges — from alpine cold to outback heat — without performance degradation.
-
UV-Resistant Enclosure — Housing is UV-resistant for long-term outdoor installation without degradation from Australian sun exposure.
-
Wall & Pole Mounting — Compact design with included mounting kits for wall, pole, or junction box installation at the remote camera or AP location.
-
Omada SDN Integration — Integrates into the Omada SDN platform for centralised cloud management, remote monitoring, and multi-site management alongside other Omada devices.
-
Smart Switch Features — Static Routing, ACL, QoS, and VLAN support for network segmentation and traffic prioritisation at the edge.
Use Cases
- Extending PoE IP cameras beyond 100m from the main switch — mount the SG2005P-PD at the 100m point and run a second 100m cable to the camera without a mains outlet
- Remote outdoor access point installations — power and connect Wi-Fi 6 APs at the far end of a car park, sports field, or building perimeter without running power cabling
- Agricultural and rural properties — extend PoE cameras and APs to sheds, gates, and outbuildings up to 200m from the main switch without electrical infrastructure
- Construction sites — temporary PoE camera and AP deployments at remote points without mains power access
- Caravan parks and outdoor venues — extend PoE Wi-Fi APs to remote coverage zones without trenching power cables
- Industrial and mining sites — IP55 and 4KV lightning protection for reliable operation in harsh outdoor environments

Frequently Asked Questions
What upstream PoE switch or injector do I need to power the SG2005P-PD?
The SG2005P-PD requires an 802.3bt PoE++ upstream source on its single PoE-in port. For maximum downstream PoE budget (64W across 4 ports), use a 90W 802.3bt Type 4 PoE++ source such as the TP-Link TL-SX3206HPP. A 60W 802.3bt Type 3 source provides 44W downstream budget. Standard 802.3at (30W) and 802.3af (15W) sources also work but provide reduced downstream budgets of 19W and 6W respectively.
Does the 200m PoE range require special cabling?
Yes. The 200m PoE passthrough range requires Cat5e or better cabling for both the upstream run (from the main switch to the SG2005P-PD) and the downstream runs (from the SG2005P-PD to each connected device). Each individual cable run must not exceed 100m. For outdoor installations, use UV-resistant, direct-burial, or conduit-rated outdoor Cat6 cable to ensure long-term reliability.
Can the SG2005P-PD be used indoors?
Yes. While the SG2005P-PD is specifically designed for outdoor use with its IP55 enclosure and 4KV lightning protection, it can also be used indoors — for example, in a junction box, comms room, or ceiling space — wherever a compact PoE passthrough switch is needed to extend PoE beyond 100m without a mains power outlet.
How many cameras or APs can I connect to the SG2005P-PD?
The SG2005P-PD has four downstream PoE+ ports, so up to four PoE devices can be connected simultaneously. The total power available across all four ports is limited by the upstream PoE input — up to 64W with a 90W PoE++ source. For example, four 15W PoE cameras would draw 60W — within the 64W budget. Plan your device power requirements to ensure the total draw does not exceed the available budget.
Does the SG2005P-PD require an Omada Controller?
No. The SG2005P-PD can operate in standalone mode with basic smart switch functionality via its web UI without an Omada Controller. Omada SDN integration is optional and adds centralised multi-device management, cloud access, and remote monitoring alongside other Omada switches and APs.
