TP-Link SG116P 16 Port Gigabit PoE Switch

The TP-Link SG116P (TL-SG116P) is the rare 16-port switch where every single port is PoE: 16 Gigabit ports, 16 powered connections, zero configuration. It automatically detects and supplies power to any IEEE 802.3af/at compliant powered device, making it a one-box answer for camera-heavy or phone-heavy sites.

Because power and data travel down one cable, cameras, access points and IP phones can be fixed exactly where they are needed — ceilings, poles, corners — with no power lines or outlets nearby. Being unmanaged, there is nothing to set up and nothing to maintain.

If you would prefer web management and VLANs at this scale, the Easy Smart SG1016PE is the alternative; for SFP uplinks and a bigger budget, look at the SG1218MP.

Key features

• All 16 ports are PoE — no juggling powered and unpowered ports on busy installs.
• Gigabit throughout for smooth camera streams, backups and file traffic.
• Automatic PD detection — safely powers 802.3af/at devices, passes data only to the rest.
• Single-cable installs — put devices where coverage demands, not where sockets are.
• No configuration required — unmanaged, plug-and-play operation.
• Everything in the box — power adapter, power cable, guide and rubber feet.

Works with

• TP-Link SG1016PE — Easy Smart web-managed alternative
• TP-Link SG1218MP — 18-port sibling with SFP slots
• TP-Link EAP610 — Wi-Fi 6 access point it can power over PoE
• All switches
• All networking

Frequently asked questions

Are all the ports really PoE?

Yes — all 16 Gigabit ports supply Power over Ethernet to IEEE 802.3af/at compliant devices, detected automatically.

Does it need configuring?

No — it is an unmanaged switch. Plug it in and it works; there is no interface to learn or firmware to babysit.

What happens if I connect a non-PoE device?

Nothing bad — the switch detects that the device is not a powered device and passes data only, so laptops, printers and NVRs share the switch safely.

Is a power supply included?

Yes — the power adapter and power cable ship in the box, along with an installation guide and rubber feet.
