- Description
Product Overview
The TP-Link TL-SF1008D is a compact 8-port unmanaged Fast Ethernet switch built for simple, low-cost network expansion where Gigabit speeds are not required — think basic PCs, printers, or older equipment sharing a small network. Plug it in and it works, with auto-negotiation and Auto MDI/MDIX so any standard cable works in any port.
Important — this is a 10/100Mbps (Fast Ethernet) switch, not a Gigabit switch. Total Security Equipment also stocks the TP-Link TL-SG1008D, which looks and is named almost identically but runs at full Gigabit (10/100/1000Mbps) speeds. If your devices need Gigabit throughput, make sure you're ordering the "SG" model, not this "SF" model — see the comparison table below.
Its compact plastic case is a desktop-only design, and a fanless build keeps it silent. Green Ethernet technology automatically reduces power draw on shorter cable runs and idle ports. Supplied directly through Total Security Equipment.

FAQs
1. Is this a Gigabit switch?
No — the TL-SF1008D runs at 10/100Mbps (Fast Ethernet) only. If you need Gigabit speeds, ask our team about the TP-Link TL-SG1008D instead.
2. Does this switch supply PoE power to cameras?
No — this is a standard non-PoE switch. Ask our team about our PoE switch options if you need to power cameras directly from the switch.
3. Do I need to configure it before use?
No — it's fully unmanaged and plug-and-play. Just connect your cables and it works, with no software or login required.
4. Can this be wall-mounted?
TP-Link's published specs describe this as a desktop-only design, unlike some other models in the range. Confirm with our team if wall-mounting is important for your install.
5. Where can I buy this switch in Australia?
It's available directly from Total Security Equipment.
