JetStream L2/L2+ Managed Switch
01Introduction
Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 Product Overview
Designed for workgroups and departments, TP-Link JetStream L2/L2+ Managed Switch provides wire-
speed performance and abundant L2 management features. It provides a variety of service features and
multiple powerful functions with high security.
The EIA-standardized framework and smart configuration capacity can provide flexible solutions for a
variable scale of networks. ACL, 802.1x and Dynamic ARP Inspection provide robust security strategies.
QoS and IGMP snooping/filtering optimize voice and video application. Link aggregation (LACP) increases
aggregated bandwidth, optimizing the transport of business critical data. SNMP, RMON, WEB and CLI Log-
in bring abundant management policies. TP-Link JetStream L2/L2+ Managed Switch integrates multiple
functions with excellent performance, and is friendly to manage, which can fully meet the need of the users
demanding higher networking performance.
TL-SX3206HPP/TL-SG3210XHP-M2/TL-SG3428MP/TL-SG3428XMP/TL-SG3452P/TL-SG3452XP is also
a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE*). All the RJ45 ports on the switch support Power over Ethernet (PoE*)
function, which can automatically detect and supply power to those powered devices (PDs*) complying
with IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at.
*PSE: a device (switch or hub for instance) that provides power through an Ethernet cable.
*PoE: This technology describes a system to transmit electrical power, along with data, to remote devices
over standard twisted-pair cable in an Ethernet.
*PD: a device powered by a PSE and thus consumes energy. Examples include powering network cameras,
wireless LAN access points, IP telephones, network hubs, embedded computers etc.
