Chapter 1. Introduction of the Product
Thank you for choosing the TL-SF1005D/TL-SF1008D/TL-SF1016D 10/100Mbps Desktop Switch.
1.1 Overview of the Product
TL-SF1005D/TL-SF1008D/TL-SF1016D 10/100Mbps Desktop Switch provides 5/8/16
10/100Mbps Auto-Negotiation RJ45 ports. All ports support Auto MDI/MDIX function, eliminating
the need for crossover cables or Uplink ports. The Switch is Plug-and-Play and each port can be
used as general ports or Uplink ports and can be simply plugged into a server, a hub, a switch or
a router and so on, using straight cable or crossover cable.
The TL-SF1005D/TL-SF1008D/TL-SF1016D 10/100M Desktop Switch provides you with a low-
cost, easy-to-use, high-performance, seamless and standard upgrade to improve your old
network to a 100Mbps network. It will boost your network performance up to full duplex data
transfer. Its wire-speed switching that forwards packets can be as fast as the speed that your
network delivers those packets to them.
1.2 Convention
The Switch or TL-SF1005D/TL-SF1008D/TL-SF1016D mentioned in this User Guide stands for
TL-SF1005D/TL-SF1008D/TL-SF1016D 10/100Mbps Desktop Switch without any explanation.

Appendix B: Troubleshooting
1. The Power LED is not lit
Check to see if the power cord is connected to the Switch properly, and make sure the
power source is ON.
2. The Link/Act LED is not lit when a device is connected to the corresponding port
Check to see if the cable connectors are firmly plugged into the Switch and the device, and
verify the connected device is turned on and working well. Make sure the cable is not longer
than 100 meters (328 feet).
