1 / 7TP-Link TL-SG108PE(UK) 8-Port Gigabit PoE+ Managed Switch
The TP-Link TL-SG108PE is an eight-port managed Gigabit switch with four PoE+ ports and a stated 64 W total PoE budget. Its smart-management features suit small networks that need powered devices and basic traffic controls, while the four PoE ports limit how many devices it can power directly.
At a glance
- Eight Gigabit RJ45 ports, with four providing PoE+ for compatible devices.
- The listing states up to 30W per PoE+ port and a 64 W combined PoE budget. The total budget is lower than the sum of the per-port maxima, so connected devices share that limit.
- VLAN, traffic prioritisation, network monitoring and PoE Auto Recovery are listed for managing a small network.
- A fanless metal casing is claimed to avoid operating noise, and configuration is available through a web interface or Easy Smart utility.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Four PoE+ ports can carry data and power over one cable to compatible devices, reducing the need for separate device power connections.
- Gigabit RJ45 ports and basic managed-network functions offer more control than a simple unmanaged switch.
- The fanless design is suited to settings where switch noise matters.
Cons
- Only four of the eight ports provide PoE+, which may be limiting when more than four devices need switch-supplied power.
- The combined PoE budget is 64 W, so four devices cannot each draw the advertised 30 W simultaneously.

What to know before buying
- PoE capacity is shared: the listing states up to 30W per PoE+ port but only 64 W across all PoE ports. Check the connected devices' power requirements against the combined budget. The listing also describes plug-and-play connectivity alongside managed configuration, so use the web interface or utility when VLAN, QoS or monitoring settings are needed.

Who is it for?
A good fit for
- Small wired networks needing eight Gigabit connections and PoE+ for up to four compatible devices.
- Buyers who want VLAN or traffic-prioritisation options without choosing an unmanaged switch.
- Quiet desktop or office network setups where fanless operation is useful.
Less suited to
- Networks that need PoE+ on more than four ports.
- Installations whose connected PoE devices together require more than the stated 64 W budget.
- Buyers needing multi-gigabit Ethernet, which is not listed here.

Customer feedback highlights easy setup, plug-and-play use, compact size, compatibility and reports of improved download speed and reliability. These are customer perceptions rather than performance guarantees. They are relevant to a small wired setup, while the switch's four PoE+ ports and 64 W total budget remain practical limits for powered devices. Ratings are predominantly five-star, though a smaller share is lower, and ratings alone do not explain why.
Positive themes
- Customers report straightforward setup and that the switch works straight away.
- Customer feedback mentions compact size, compatibility and perceived improvements in speed and reliability.
Frequently asked questions
How many ports provide PoE+?
The listing specifies four PoE+ ports among the eight RJ45 ports. It states up to 30W per PoE+ port and a 64 W total budget across all PoE ports.
Can all four PoE+ ports deliver 30W at once?
Not at the stated per-port maximum. Four ports at 30W would exceed the listed 64 W total budget, so available power must be shared across connected devices.
Is this switch managed?
Yes. The listing identifies it as managed and describes web-based configuration, an Easy Smart utility, network monitoring, traffic prioritisation and VLAN features.
Is the switch fanless?
Yes. The listing describes a fanless design and claims it eliminates operating noise.
