Overview
TP-Link’s Easy Smart Switch is an ideal upgrade from unmanaged switches, designed for small office and home office networks. Managing the switch through the web browser or Utility, administrators can effectively monitor traffic via Port Mirroring, Loop Prevention, and Cable Diagnostics features. To optimize traffic on your business network, TL-SG105E, TL-SG108E, and TL- SG116E offer Port-based/802.1p/DSCP QoS to keep latency-sensitive traffic moving smoothly and jitter-free. To improve security and meet more network segmentation requirements, it supports port-based, tag-based, and MTU VLAN. Additionally, with its innovative energy-efficient technology, it is an eco- friendly choice for your business network.
Easy to Use
Connecting devices to Easy Smart Switch is simple. Auto MDI/MDI-X crossover on all ports eliminates the need for crossover cables or uplink ports. Auto- negotiation on each port detects the link speed of network devices and intelligently adjusts settings for compatibility and optimal performance.
Durable Metal Casing
The interior components of Easy Smart Switches are protected by a high-quality metal casing to ensure a long product life. Having passed an array of stringent reliability tests, Easy Smart Switches deliver switching performance you can depend on. Its compact size makes it ideal for deployment on desktops or work benches.
Abundant Software Features
Easy Smart Switches excel not only in simple plug-and-play networks but also in more demanding environments.
- Network monitoring enables users to observe traffic behavior.
- Port Mirroring, Loop Prevention, and Cable Diagnostics allow connection problems on your network to be identified and located.
- Based on Port/802.1p/DSCP QoS, administrators can designate the priority of the traffic, for example, to ensure that voice and video application remain clear and lag-free.
- Combining security with network performance, TL-SG116E supports MTU VLAN, port-based VLAN
and 802.1Q-based VLAN functions.
Go Green with Your Ethernet
TP-Link’s latest generation of Easy Smart Switch makes use of innovative
energy-saving technologies. Power consumption automatically adjusts according
to the link status and cable length, allowing you to expand your network while
minimizing your carbon footprint. Protect the planet and lower your energy
bills — it’s a win-win!

FAQ’s
Why utilize a desktop switch?****
If your router has few ports or if you have numerous devices in one location, a network switch may be utilized to supplement router ports. To reduce wireless interference or to boost speed, you might utilize a network switch. It might be an effective means of accelerating.
Is there a web interface for the TL sg108?****
Both a web GUI and software-based login options are available for TL-SG108E.
What is the TP-Link switch’s port speed?****
The Wi-Fi 6 APs can operate traffic-intensive applications and services thanks to connections of 10 Gbps and 2.5 Gbps. More IoT devices can be connected to create a smart living and working ecosystem. TP-Link multi-gigabit switches enable PoE (Power over Ethernet), PoE+, and PoE++.
What is TP-maximum Link’s speed?****
The highest wireless link speed is 300Mbps.
Is speed limited by the switch?****
If you pick the improper network switch, it will slow down your home network. For instance, almost all routers include Gigabit Ethernet connections with 1,000 Mbps of maximum bandwidth apiece.
What purpose does a gigabit switch serve?****
They aid in boosting the network’s dependability and boosting data rates up to about 1000 Mbps. A crucial component of a network, gigabit switches enable the connection of several other devices, including computers, printers, cameras, and other peripherals, to a local area network (LAN).
How far apart from one network switch can they be?****
There are several distinct types of Ethernet wire, but their maximum range is 100 meters (328 feet). It should be noted that compared to Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6a cables, the Cat7 cable has stricter distance restrictions.
Can a Gigabit switch manage a lot of data?****
Up to 1000 Mbps can be supported by a gigabit network switch. Additionally, it has the ability to strike deals with network equipment operating at slower rates of 10Mbps or 100Mbps.
What is the gigabit connection limit for devices?****
Several devices can be supported by a network connection that is one Gigabit (1Gbps). According to some sources, a gigabyte can support up to 50 devices. Some recommend a maximum of 10 devices to prevent any slowdowns. That ultimately relies on how you use the Internet.
Is a multi-gigabit switch necessary?****
It is understandable why you would require a multi-gigabit router if your internet services are faster than 1 Gbps. To fully utilize your network’s advertised speed, you likely need a Multi-Gigabit router or Mesh system, even if your ISP only provides you with 1 Gbps of connectivity.
Why can I only use a gigabit switch at 100 Mbps?****
This is typical. A Cat 5e cable may drop from Gigabit link speeds to 100 Mbps link rates due to events like rolling over the wire with an office chair, stepping on it, or closing a door on it. On your access point, try various ports.
