Description
TP-Link TL-SG1005LP – 5-Port Gigabit Desktop Switch with 4-Port PoE+
The TP-Link TL-SG1005LP is a compact, fanless 5-port Gigabit switch with PoE+ on four of its five ports — making it an ideal solution for small IP camera installations, wireless access point deployments, and VoIP phone setups where a full-sized switch is unnecessary. With a 40W total PoE budget, IEEE 802.3af/at compliance, and plug-and-play operation, it delivers data and power over a single cable to up to four devices without any configuration required.
Key Features
-
4 × PoE+ Ports (Ports 1–4): IEEE 802.3af/at compliant, delivering up to 30W per port for IP cameras, wireless APs, VoIP phones, and access control devices.
-
40W Total PoE Budget: Shared across all four PoE ports for powering multiple devices simultaneously from a single switch.
-
5 × Gigabit Ports: All five ports support 10/100/1000Mbps with Auto-Negotiation and Auto MDI/MDIX — no crossover cables required.
-
Fanless Silent Operation: No moving parts — completely silent, suitable for offices, reception areas, and noise-sensitive environments.
-
Plug and Play: No configuration, software, or web interface required — connect and power on.
-
802.1p/DSCP QoS: Prioritises latency-sensitive traffic such as VoIP and video streams for consistent performance.
-
IGMP Snooping: Optimises multicast traffic delivery, reducing unnecessary bandwidth usage from IP camera streams.
-
Compact Desktop Form Factor: 99.8 × 98 × 25mm — fits neatly on a desk, shelf, or inside a small cabinet.
-
Store-and-Forward Switching: Error-free packet forwarding for reliable data transmission.
Ideal Use Cases
- Powering and connecting 1–4 IP cameras in a small CCTV installation without separate PoE injectors.
- Deploying a wireless access point and a VoIP phone from a single compact switch in a small office or retail space.
-
Adding PoE capability to a location where only a non-PoE switch or router port is available, using the uplink port (Port 5) to connect upstream.
- Home office setups requiring a small Gigabit switch with PoE for a camera doorbell, AP, or IP phone.
- Temporary or permanent installations in cabinets, server rooms, or comms cupboards where space is limited.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which ports support PoE on the TL-SG1005LP?
Ports 1 through 4 are PoE+ capable. Port 5 is a standard Gigabit uplink port without PoE, used to connect the switch to your router or upstream network.
What is the total PoE power budget?
The TL-SG1005LP has a total PoE budget of 40W shared across all four PoE ports. Each port can deliver up to 30W individually, but the combined draw across all four ports cannot exceed 40W.
How many IP cameras can I power with this switch?
Up to four cameras simultaneously. The number depends on each camera’s PoE power draw. For example, four cameras drawing 8W each would total 32W — within the 40W budget. Higher-wattage cameras (e.g. PTZ cameras at 25–30W) will reduce the number that can be powered concurrently.
Does it require any configuration?
No. The TL-SG1005LP is fully plug and play. Connect your devices and power on — no web interface, software, or CLI configuration is required.
Can I use it with non-PoE devices?
Yes. The switch automatically detects whether a connected device requires PoE. Non-PoE devices (such as computers or NVRs) connect normally via Ethernet without any risk of damage from the PoE circuitry.
Is it suitable for use in a small office or home environment?
Yes. The fanless design means it operates in complete silence, making it suitable for desks, reception areas, and home offices. Its compact footprint (approximately 10 × 10cm) means it fits almost anywhere.
What is the difference between the TL-SG1005LP and the TL-SG116P?
The TL-SG1005LP has 5 ports (4 PoE+) with a 40W budget — ideal for small installations with 1–4 PoE devices. The TL-SG116P has 16 ports (all PoE+) with a 120W budget, suited to larger camera or AP deployments. Choose the TL-SG1005LP for compact, cost-effective setups and the TL-SG116P when you need to power more devices.
