Frequently Asked Questions
Does the TL-SF1024 require any configuration?
No. It is a fully unmanaged, plug-and-play switch. Connect your Ethernet cables and it works immediately — no software, login, or setup required.
Does the rackmount kit come included?
Yes. The TL-SF1024 includes a rackmount kit, power cord, rubber feet, and installation guide in the box. No additional accessories are required for standard 19-inch rack installation.
What is the difference between the TL-SF1024 and the TL-SG1024D?
The TL-SF1024 supports 10/100Mbps (Fast Ethernet). The TL-SG1024D supports 10/100/1000Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet), offering up to 10× faster throughput. If your devices and cabling support Gigabit, the TL-SG1024D is the better long-term investment at a similar price point.
Is the TL-SF1024 suitable for CCTV and IP camera networks?
Yes, for installations where 100Mbps bandwidth is sufficient per camera. For higher-resolution IP cameras or NVR systems requiring more bandwidth, a Gigabit switch such as the TL-SG1024D is recommended.
Does CCTV Guru ship Australia-wide?
Yes. We ship to all states and territories across Australia. Orders are dispatched promptly from our local warehouse.
