## Overview

The TP-Link TL-SG1016PE is a 16-port Gigabit smart switch featuring 8 PoE+ ports with a 150W power budget, designed for efficient data and power delivery over a single cable. It supports IEEE 802.3af/at devices, offers advanced QoS and IGMP snooping for optimized multimedia traffic, and includes a user-friendly web interface for easy management. Built with durable metal housing and rackmount capability, it’s ideal for expanding home or office networks with reliable, high-speed connectivity.

## Description

From the manufacturer Power Overload Protection TL-SG1016PE has a priority function which helps protect the system when its power is overloaded. If all PoE+ devices’ power consumption is greater than or equal to 110W, a priority will be arranged among the 16 PoE+ ports, at which point the system will cut off the power of the lowest-priority port. Advanced Functions for Higher Performance For Fluent Online Experience Administrators can designate the priority of traffic based on Qos. For example, to ensure that voice and video applications remain clear and lag-free. Traffic Optimization for IPTV IGMP snooping optimises multimedia traffic delivery to ensure a better network experience, especially for applications like IPTV.

Review: Superb switch - TP-Link TL-SG1016PE: It is easy to see how TP-link has gained such a star reputation recently with its networking products. It is not just well made and reliable, it is also the correct estimation of functionality and price that people really want. You can just plug it in and go, and no configuration is needed, it jsut works well. I like the lights on the front showing operation, speed and PoE status of each port, or perhaps I just like flashing lights :) This is known as a smart switch. It is midway between an unmanaged switch and a managed switch. The half way is that it gives you a web interface allowing traffic monitoring, ip setting, LED control, config backup, firmware update, port speed/duplex, link and flow control. It also allows IGMP snooping, LAG groups, stats monitoring, port mirror, cable tests, loop; prevention, vlan control (MTU, Port based, 802.1Q VLAN and PVID), Qos bandwidth, basic and storm control and of course it is PoE. 8 of the 16 ports can be used for power over ethernet up to a total of 150w. A tip for those who are plugging it into a router (e.g. a sky router you have for your broadband). The TP-link switch defaults as 192.168.0.1, so this will conflict with pretty much all routers, and you wont be able to use the web interface. To make mine work, I changed the sky router to an IP address of 192.168.0.254 and set 1-253 as DHCP controlled. Now here is the last but important bit, you need to reserve the address 192.168.0.1 on the router (using address reservation) and make sure you know the mac address (can be found under the case). Once this has all been done and the router has rebooted a few times, you will now be able to see the web interface but only from any PC plugged into the switch directly, by typing 192.168.0.1. Note that you will not be able to see the web interface from any PC plugged into the router's ethernet sockets. Lastly, remember to turn on the MLD querier option in the router, to make sure the switch connections are seamless with the routers own connections. Of course, you dont need to bother with this paragraph if you cant be bothered seeing the web interface ;)
Review: Excellent build quality, functionality and features....... - This managed switch impressed me from the start. When it arrived I was most pleased with both the weight of the unit, with built in power supply, and the all metal casing. It just oozed quality. This review will be focussed on the POE aspect of the switch, it providing a maximum of a 150w via POE. Please see my photos. The array of lights that are on the front of the switch are useful, they can be disabled within the UI, but are wasted for myself as the switch will be managed remotely. You might need to install the Easy Smart Configuration Utility v1.3.19.0, available from TP-Link, to discover the switch on you LAN, see photo. Or, since it is set to use DHCP at the start, just look for it within your connected network devices. When accessing the UI I noted the hardware revision, 5.2, and I'm using the latest firmware. As mentioned I am using this unit principally for the POE function and have six 4k / HD CCTV IP cameras connected. The fan on the unit seems to run continuously, regardless of load. Sad really, as during light power loading it could have been much quieter if the fans use would have been load related in its use. It is not loud at all, but it is noticeable. There are options to ping your POE attached devices, if they do not respond then the port can be rebooted automatically. The cable length can be measured and extended up to 250m, but at a reduced throughput. Individual power usage across each port can be seen, and overall power usage across them all. Limiting power and setting priorities is possible. The UI is easy to navigate and use. The functions are well presented and easily accessible. I have looked at the VLAN options and they seem well enabled. I have contacted their customer service, TP-Link, with both live chat and email, they responded very quickly and were most helpful with my firmware query. Overall I would very much recommend this product, based on my own POE needs. Two minor quibbles.......The fan, as noted, is not loud but to have it working on load rather than constant would have been nice. Secondly, the cluster of Ethernet ports are very tightly compacted together. Not a major issue, but one where it can be tight to access and plug in your devices. Very happy with the switch and pleased with its functions and cost. Very much recommended. I hope this has been helpful.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Make sure you set your site to Easy Managed to adopt this switch.
*by A***N on 2 September 2025*

I've moved more towards a TP-link set up with the OC200 hardware managing it all. I'd had it set up a while ago but wanted a small switch for my office. I initially encountered a problem when trying to adopt it as it said the device was incompatible with my switch (I've got a ER605 and SG2210P with some access points). What transpires is that during setup of the initial site network I selected a non-easy network function. This prevents the adoption. Changing the site settings to easy managed and it very quickly adopted it and started working. I then got concerned as all the LEDs went out. I run with all LEDs disabled but wanted to see them on the switch so a quick override in OC200 and its all good again. The ES205G is much cheaper than the SG2210P and seems to provide all you need for a SOHO set up. Working well so far so very happy with it.
