TP-Link 9-Port 10/100Mbps Desktop Switch with 8-Port PoE+

The TP-Link TL-SF1009P is a professional 9-port unmanaged switch with eight PoE+ ports and a total PoE budget of 65 W. It supports Fast Ethernet (10/100 Mbps) and is compliant with IEEE 802.3af/at for PoE+ devices. The switch is suitable for small business, office and dormitory deployments and is compatible with IP cameras, access points, IP phones, computers and printers. The metal casing protects internal components and provides reliable operation.

Advantages

The TL-SF1009P provides plug-and-play operation with automatic PoE detection and intelligent power management that prioritises ports when total consumption exceeds the 65 W budget. An extend mode allows PoE transmission distances up to 250 m (at reduced port speed), and priority and isolation modes improve performance and security for surveillance networks. Fast Ethernet support, a 1.6 Gbit/s switching capacity and a MAC address table suited for typical small network setups ensure stable data forwarding.

Suitable for

• Small business and office network expansion
• IP surveillance systems with multiple cameras
• Wireless access point deployments
• IP telephony and desktop device connections

Key specifications

• Ports: 9 × RJ‑45 Fast Ethernet (10/100 Mbps), including 8 PoE+ ports
• PoE standard: IEEE 802.3af/at (PoE+)
• PoE power budget: 65 W total
• Extend mode: PoE transmission up to 250 m (ports run at 10 Mbps in extend mode)
• Switching capacity: 1.6 Gbit/s
• MAC address table: 2000 entries
• Management: Unmanaged (plug and play)
• Power input: DC 53.5 V
• Chassis: Metal, wall-mountable

How to use

Mount the TL-SF1009P on a suitable surface or place it on a shelf and connect the DC power adapter to the device. Plug network devices into the RJ‑45 ports; PoE-capable devices will be detected automatically and powered by the switch within the available budget. Use extend mode when you need PoE over longer distances, keeping in mind that port speeds will reduce to 10 Mbps in that mode. No additional configuration is required for basic operation.

Recommendations

For stable PoE performance, calculate total power consumption of connected PoE devices to remain within the 65 W budget; enable priority for critical devices and use quality Ethernet cabling to maximise transmission distance and reliability.
