Software Defined Networking (SDN) with Cloud Access

The TP-Link TL-SG2218 16-Port Switch seamlessly integrates into the Omada SDN platform, bringing centralized cloud management to your network. Manage access points, gateways, and switches from a single dashboard with zero-touch provisioning and intelligent monitoring.

Whether deployed in offices, hospitality, education, or retail, this 16-Port Switch offers scalable performance and a reliable wired backbone through Omada’s Software Defined Networking architecture.

Secure Networking with Enterprise-Grade Protection

The TL-SG2218 16-Port Switch is equipped with advanced security features like IP-MAC-Port-VID Binding, Port Security, Storm Control, and DHCP Snooping to safeguard your business network.

Access Control Lists (ACLs) from Layer 2 to Layer 4 allow granular control over who can access what, while 802.1X authentication with RADIUS/TACACS+ ensures only authorized users can connect to the network—making this 16-Port Switch ideal for sensitive or high-security environments.

Enterprise-Level Features

Designed for business-critical networks, this switch supports a full suite of Layer 2 and Layer 2+ features to deliver high-performance, scalable, and efficient operations.

Key features include 802.1Q VLAN, Port Mirroring, STP/RSTP/MSTP, Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP), and 802.3x Flow Control—enabling greater control, reliability, and network resilience.

With advanced IGMP Snooping, multicast traffic is forwarded only to the intended devices, reducing unnecessary load. IGMP throttling and filtering further enhance control by limiting multicast access on a per-port basis.

Additionally, Static Routing allows internal traffic to be segmented and routed directly through the switch, improving overall network efficiency without needing a dedicated router.

16-Port Switch with Advanced QoS for Voice & Video Traffic

Ensure smooth and uninterrupted voice and video communication with Advanced Quality of Service (QoS). This feature allows traffic prioritization based on IP address, MAC address, TCP/UDP port numbers, and more.

By intelligently managing bandwidth, the switch ensures that latency-sensitive applications like VoIP calls and video streaming remain stable and high-quality—even during peak traffic conditions.

IPv6-Ready 16-Port Switch for Next-Generation Networks

The TP-Link TL-SG2218 16-Port Switch is fully ready for next-gen networks with robust IPv6 support. It features Dual IPv4/IPv6 Stack, DHCPv6 Snooping, IPv6 ACLs, MLD Snooping, and Neighbor Discovery.

This ensures your infrastructure is scalable, future-ready, and compliant with modern networking standards—without the need for hardware upgrades.
