TL-SL1311P Switch 8-Port PoE+ — 250m Extend Mode

The TP-Link TL-SL1311P is a versatile desktop switch that combines 8× 10/100Mbps PoE+ ports with 3× Gigabit ports (2× RJ45 and 1× SFP), delivering flexible connectivity options for small office and home networking deployments. With a total PoE budget of 65W across 8 ports and support for up to 30W per port, this switch can power IEEE 802.3af/at compliant devices like IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points without requiring separate power adapters. The fanless design ensures silent operation while reducing power consumption, making it ideal for desktop or small office environments where noise is a concern.

• Extended Range PoE: Extend Mode enables data and power transmission up to 250m, perfect for reaching remote devices beyond standard 100m Ethernet limitations
• Isolation Mode: One-click client traffic separation enhances network security and performance by preventing lateral communication between connected devices
• PoE Auto Recovery: Automatically reboots unresponsive or dropped PoE devices, ensuring continuous operation without manual intervention
• Plug and Play: No configuration required for immediate deployment, with intelligent PoE management handling power allocation automatically

This unmanaged switch offers an accessible entry point for users seeking reliable PoE switching at an attractive price point of $81.50. While the 10/100Mbps ports on the PoE side may not match the full Gigabit speeds available throughout UniFi switches, the TL-SL1311P provides sufficient bandwidth for typical PoE device requirements like security cameras and access points, where uplink speeds rarely exceed Fast Ethernet capabilities. The combination of extended range capability, automatic recovery features, and straightforward operation makes this switch a practical solution for straightforward installations where budget and simplicity take priority over advanced management features.
