TP-Link JetStream TL-SG3428XMP Managed Switch Overview

The TP-Link TL-SG3428XMP delivers enterprise-grade network performance with 24 gigabit PoE+ ports and four 10-gigabit SFP+ uplinks. This L2+ managed switch provides 384W total PoE budget, supporting up to 30W per port for powering IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones without additional power supplies.

High-Performance Switching Architecture

Built with 128 Gbps switching capacity and 95.23 Mpps packet forwarding rate, this rack-mountable switch handles demanding network traffic efficiently. The four 10GE SFP+ slots provide high-speed backbone connectivity while maintaining backward compatibility with gigabit infrastructure. With 16K MAC address table and 12 Mbit packet buffer memory, the TL-SG3428XMP ensures smooth data flow across your network.

Advanced Layer 2+ Features

This managed switch includes static routing capabilities with support for 48 static routes and 16 IPv4/IPv6 interfaces. VLAN support extends to 4K groups with 802.1Q tagging, MAC VLAN, Protocol VLAN, and QinQ configurations. Link aggregation supports up to 8 groups with LACP, while spanning tree protocols (STP/RSTP/MSTP) prevent network loops and ensure redundancy.

Comprehensive Security and Access Control

IP-MAC-Port Binding with 512 entries protects against ARP spoofing and unauthorized access. DHCP Snooping, ARP Inspection, and DoS Defend features safeguard network integrity. The switch supports 802.1X authentication with port-based and MAC-based modes, plus RADIUS and TACACS+ for centralized authentication. Advanced ACL policies enable time-based, MAC, IP, and IPv6 filtering with options for mirroring, redirecting, and rate limiting.

Enterprise Quality of Service

Eight priority queues with 802.1p CoS and DSCP classification ensure critical traffic receives priority treatment. Queue scheduling options include SP, WRR, and SP+WRR modes. Port-based and flow-based rate limiting controls bandwidth allocation, while IGMP v1/v2/v3 snooping and MLD snooping optimize multicast traffic delivery.

Omada SDN Integration

Full integration with TP-Link's Omada Software Defined Networking platform enables centralized cloud management through hardware controllers (OC200/OC300), software controller, or cloud-based controller. Zero-Touch Provisioning simplifies deployment, while batch configuration and firmware upgrades reduce administrative overhead. The Omada app provides mobile management capabilities for monitoring and configuration.

Flexible Management Options

Multiple management interfaces include web-based GUI, CLI via console port or Telnet/SSH, and SNMP v1/v2c/v3 with trap support. RMON groups 1, 2, 3, and 9 provide detailed network statistics. Features like dual image/configuration, CPU monitoring, cable diagnostics, and LLDP/LLDP-MED enhance operational efficiency. The switch supports DHCP AutoInstall and SNTP for time synchronization.

Technical Specifications

The metal chassis measures 17.3 x 13.0 x 1.7 inches and includes rack-mount kit and rubber feet. Two fans provide cooling with power consumption of 34.4W without PoE devices or 465.8W at full 384W PoE load. Operating temperature range of 0–45°C and humidity tolerance of 10–90% RH ensure reliable performance in various environments. CE, FCC, and RoHS certifications confirm compliance with international standards.
