TP-Link TL-SG1016D network switch 16 × 1G, desktop or rack, unmanaged

The TP-Link TL-SG1016D is an unmanaged 16-port gigabit network switch that is narrower than the rackmount model and sits neatly on a desk or shelf, yet the included brackets also let it go into a server rack. A built-in power supply and fanless cooling keep it quiet.

  • Ports: 16 × RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000), auto MDI/MDI-X
  • Performance: 32 Gbit/s switching capacity, 23.8 Mpps forwarding rate, 8000-entry MAC table
  • Management: unmanaged, plug and play, IEEE 802.3x flow control, 10 KB jumbo frames
  • Mounting: desktop or rack, rack mount kit included, 294 × 180 × 44 mm
  • Power: built-in 100–240 V AC power supply, power cable included, up to 9.26 W consumption

Description

Gigabit networking without a server rack

At 294 mm wide, the housing fits on an office desk or shelf where a 19″ rackmount model would be too wide. All 16 ports run at up to 1000 Mbit/s and detect the connected device's speed and cable type on their own. If a server rack arrives later, the same switch can move into it.

Who this network switch is for

Small offices that need to connect up to 16 computers, printers and access points but have no server rack yet; home offices where the switch sits on a shelf; and anyone looking for a quiet unmanaged switch with nothing to configure.

Questions & answers

How does the TL-SG1016D differ from the TL-SG1016?

Both have 16 gigabit ports, but the TL-SG1016D is 294 mm wide and meant mainly for a desk, while the TL-SG1016 is a 440 mm wide 19″ rackmount model. The TL-SG1016D also comes with rack brackets.

Does the switch have a fan?

No, cooling is passive and the switch runs silently. It is rated for 0 to 40 °C operation.

Can I set up VLANs on it?

No. The TL-SG1016D is an unmanaged switch with no web interface, and the ports work as soon as they are connected.
