Frequently Asked Questions
Is the TL-SG1008MP managed or unmanaged?
The TL-SG1008MP is an unmanaged switch. It requires no configuration — simply plug in your devices and it works straight away. There is no web interface, VLAN support, or QoS settings.
Can I use non-PoE devices on this switch?
Yes. All 8 ports support standard Gigabit Ethernet. Non-PoE devices such as computers, NVRs, and NAS units will connect and operate normally — the switch will not supply power to devices that don't request it.
How many IP cameras can this switch power?
With a 126W total PoE budget, the number of cameras depends on each camera's power draw. For example, 8 cameras drawing 15W each would use 120W — well within budget. Higher-draw cameras (e.g. PTZ at 25–30W) may reduce the total count.
Is this switch rack-mountable?
Yes. The TL-SG1008MP includes a rackmount kit and fits a standard 1U rack enclosure. It can also be used as a desktop unit with the included rubber feet.
What is the difference between the TL-SG1008MP and the TL-SG1008PE?
The TL-SG1008MP is the updated replacement model for the TL-SG1008PE. Both offer 8-port Gigabit PoE+, but the TL-SG1008MP features an improved design and is the currently supported model from TP-Link.
Does this switch ship Australia-wide?
Yes. CCTV Guru ships the TL-SG1008MP to all states and territories across Australia from local stock.
