Switches Explanation
Note: The numbers in brackets indicate the ports where the feature takes effect. For example, when Extend(1-4) is toggled to On, the Extend mode will be enabled for ports 1-4.

Extend (for TL-SF1008LP/TL-SF1008P/TL-SF1009P/TL-SL1311MP) Recovery (only for TL-SF1008P/TL-SL1311MP)

Off: Ports run at 10/100 Mbps and support PoE power supply up to 100 m away. Off: The PoE Auto Recovery function is disabled.
On: Ports run at 10 Mbps and support PoE power supply up to 250 m away. On: The switch will constantly detect the working status of a PoE powered device (PD). When
the switch finds that the PD works abnormally, the switch will reboot it.

Priority (only for TL-SF1008LP/TL-SF1008P/TL-SF1009P) Isolation (only for TL-SF1009P/TL-SL1311MP)

Off: All the ports transmit data with the same priority. Off: Ports can transmit data with each other.
On: The specific ports transmit data with a higher priority than other ports. On: Specfic ports cannot transmit data with other downlink ports. They can transmit data
only with the uplink ports.

Note: For simplicity, we will take TL-SF1008P for example throughout the Guide.

Note:

1. PoE ports can also connect to non-PoE devices, but only transmit data.

2. TL-SL1311MP has three uplink ports, which typically connect to uplink devices like routers.
Uplink 1 is an SFP slot and works with a 1000 Mbps SFP module. Uplink 2 and uplink 3 are RJ45 ports.

TL-SF1008LP/TL-SF1008P: 1.6 Gbps

Switching Capacity TL-SF1009P: 1.8 Gbps
Q3. Why are PoE ports not supplying power for PoE devices?
TL-SL1311MP: 7.6 Gbps
When the total power consumption of connected PoE devices exceeds the maximum, the
MAC Address Table 2K PoE port with a smaller port number has a higher priority. The system will cut off power to
the ports with larger port numbers to ensure supplying to other ports.
Transfer Method Store-and-Forward Take TL-SF1008P as an example. If port 1, 2 and 4 are consuming 15.4 W respectively, and
an additional PoE device with 20 W is inserted to port 3, the system will cut off the power of
