TP-Link Omada 18-Port Gigabit Easy Smart Switch with 16-Port PoE+ 250W

TP-Link 18-Port Gigabit Easy Smart Switch with 16-Port PoE+ (TL-SG1218MPE) - 5 Years Local Warranty

The TL-SG1218MPE is the sixteen-PoE-port Easy Smart switch: 250 W of budget, two combo Gigabit SFP ports, a lockable 1U rack chassis and a 0-50 C operating range. It is the access switch for a full floor of cameras or access points where a fully managed JetStream model is not required.

Sixteen PoE+ Ports Sharing a 250 W Budget

Ports 1-16 are 802.3at/802.3af compliant with a 250 W total budget — enough for sixteen ordinary fixed cameras, or eight to ten PoE+ access points at full draw. Two further non-PoE Gigabit RJ45 ports and two combo Gigabit SFP ports handle uplinks. The switch runs on 100-240 V AC from the supplied cord, drawing 21.4 W idle and 296.3 W at a full 250 W PoE load.

Rated to 50 C, Locked and Rack-Mounted

The operating range extends to 50 C, which is the specification that matters in a Singapore riser, ceiling void or un-airconditioned back-of-house cupboard where a 40 C-rated switch is marginal. The 440 x 180 x 44 mm chassis is 1U rack mountable with a physical security lock slot, and two fans carry the thermal load from PoE delivery.

Two Combo SFP Ports for Fibre or Copper Uplinks

The pair of combo Gigabit SFP ports lets you take the uplink over fibre where distance or inter-building isolation requires it, or use the paired copper ports where it does not. Each combo pair is one active link at a time. Static link aggregation lets the two uplinks be bonded for more capacity and resilience back to the core switch.

VLANs, QoS, Multicast Control and PoE Auto Recovery

Up to 32 VLANs are available at once from the full 4K VLAN ID range in MTU, port-based and 802.1Q tag-based modes — the mechanism that separates camera, guest and staff traffic on shared switching. QoS covers port-based, 802.1p and DSCP priority across four queues with rate limiting and storm control. IGMP Snooping v1/v2/v3 keeps camera multicast off uninterested ports, and PoE Auto Recovery power-cycles a port whose device has stopped responding. Switching capacity is 36 Gbps with an 8K MAC table, 4.1 Mbit of buffer and 10 KB jumbo frames.

Ideal For

Singapore surveillance projects, schools, warehouses, hotels and offices needing sixteen PoE+ ports with fibre uplink options in a lockable 1U chassis, and integrators standardising a camera or access-point floor.
