TP-Link Omada SG2016P Smart PoE Switch

The TP-Link Omada SG2016P gives a growing small business sixteen Gigabit ports, eight of them 802.3at/af PoE+ with a 120 W budget — enough to power a full deployment of access points, IP phones or cameras while leaving eight full-speed data ports for desks and servers. All of it managed centrally through Omada SDN.

Adopt it into an Omada controller for cloud management via the web or the Omada app, or run it standalone via web, CLI, SNMP and RMON. Static routing, VLAN, ACL, QoS and IGMP Snooping cover segmentation, security and clean voice and video. The fanless metal chassis runs silently on a desk or wall — no rack required.

It naturally powers Omada APs such as the EAP610, sits well behind an ER7206 VPN router, and scales up to the SG2218P when you need sixteen powered ports and SFP uplinks.

Key features

• Sixteen Gigabit ports, eight PoE+ — up to 30 W per powered port.
• 120 W total PoE budget — comfortable for APs, phones and cameras together.
• Omada SDN integration — centralised cloud management via web or app.
• Standalone management — web, CLI, SNMP and RMON when a controller is overkill.
• Static routing for efficient internal traffic flow.
• VLAN, ACL, QoS and IGMP Snooping for security and smooth real-time traffic.
• Fanless metal build — silent operation, desktop or wall mounting.

Works with

• TP-Link EAP610 — Wi-Fi 6 access point it powers over PoE
• TP-Link Omada SG2218P — step up to 16 PoE+ ports and SFP
• TP-Link Omada OC200 — hardware controller for the Omada estate
• All switches
• All networking

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an Omada controller?

No — the SG2016P runs perfectly well standalone via its web UI, CLI, SNMP or RMON. A controller such as the OC200 becomes worthwhile when you manage several Omada devices or sites from one dashboard.

Is 120 W enough for eight devices?

Each PoE+ port can supply up to 30 W, and the 120 W budget covers eight typical access points or phones with room to spare — check your devices' actual draw if you are running power-hungry kit on every port.

Which ports are PoE?

Eight of the sixteen Gigabit ports supply 802.3at/af PoE+; the other eight are data-only.

Is it noisy?

No — it is fanless and silent, so it can live in an office or shop rather than a comms room.
