Was easy to setup and get access. Works great for the price when you need 10GbE SPF+ ports, but not super demanding needs. Didn't stress test it but it has been pushing everything I've thrown at it (1Gbps WAN link). But a few notes to save someone some time.... 1) it doesn't auto detect 1G/10G so you need another switch to use temporarily which supports 10 & 1 GbE, if you PC is not 10GbE, do you can access the GUI. It can be done via the USB console cable and CLI, but just plugging into another switch makes it simple. 2) if setting up VLANS and don't want management on some ports, be sure to remove the main VLAN from those ports. Obvious if you do network management but found out less than obvious to do. 3) had a lot of difficulty getting link to a Cisco router to come up. It was set for 1Gbps/Full Duplex, like the Cisco interface. Eventually figured out I had to change to auto negotiate for duplex. Immediately came up - in full duplex. Lol Only complaint I have was that I couldn't find a way to change the Admin GUI to a different VLAN,to avoid using the base VLAN (1). But certainly not a deal breaker for this application. Don't think I'd put it on a primary role per se, but in our secondary/DR site it provides great cost/ benefit, I think. Review: Great budget 10Gb switch for homelab. - Pros: Perfect switch for vSAN. Combined with some Intel 10Gb adapters this switch does a great job delivering vSAN traffic for 5 homelab ESXi hosts. Management supports vlan, routing, SNMP, jumbo frames and all features I needed. It was simple to setup SNMP read monitoring in Nagios. Cons: All ports ship configured for 10G. This will need to be configured either from a native 10G SFP+ adapter or from the console. The CLI takes a bit to get used to, but its very similar to Cisco. ## Features - 【10G Lightning-Fast Connections】8× 10 Gbps SFP+ Ports enable high-bandwidth connectivity and non-blocking switching capacity. - 【Support Omada SDN】Omada's Software Defined Networking (SDN) platform integrates network devices including switches, access points & gateways with multiple control options offered - Omada Hardware controller, Omada Software Controller or Omada Cloud-based controller*(Contact TP-Link for Cloud-based controller plan details). Standalone mode also applies. - 【Cloud Access】Remote cloud access and Omada app brings centralized cloud management of the whole network at different sites-all controlled from a single interface anywhere, anytime. - 【SDN Compatibility】For SDN usage, make sure your devices/controllers are either equipped with or can be upgraded to SDN version. SDN controllers work only with SDN switches, access points & gateways. Non-SDN controllers work only with non-SDN access points. For devices that are compatible with SDN firmware, please visit TP-Link website. - 【Enhance Network Security】Advanced security features include 802.1Q VLAN, IP-MAC-Port binding, ACL, Port Security, DoS defend, Storm control, DHCP Snooping, 802.1X radius authentication and more. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0973T7BGL | | Best Sellers Rank | #69 in Computer Networking Switches | | Brand | TP-Link | | Built-In Media | Power Cord, Quick Installation Guide, Rackmount Kit, Rubber Feet, SX3008F Switch | | Color | black | | Compatible Devices | Desktop | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 132 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 10 gigabits_per_second | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 5 years | | Interface | SFP | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 17.32"L x 7.09"W x 1.73"H | | Item Highlight | Omada SDN Integrated, IPv6, Static Routing, L2/L3/L4 QoS, IGMP & LAG, 5 Year Manufacturer Warranty | | Item Type Name | Ethernet Switch | | Item Weight | 1.65 kg | | Manufacturer | TP-Link | | Mfr Part Number | SX3008F | | Model Number | SX3008F | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Number of Ports | 8 | | Platform | DOS | | Product Dimensions | 17.32"L x 7.09"W x 1.73"H | | Switch Type | Smart Managed | | UPC | 840030702495 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Upper Temperature Rating | 45 °C | | Warranty Description | 5 Year Manufacturer | ## Product Details - **Brand:** TP-Link - **Color:** black - **Compatible Devices:** Desktop - **Included Components:** Power Cord, Quick Installation Guide, Rackmount Kit, Rubber Feet, SX3008F Switch - **Number of Ports:** 8 ## Images ![Omada SX3008F, 8 Port 10G SFP+ Enterprise Level L2+ Managed Switch - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41WndqnJKgL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked well for me *by R***. on June 29, 2022* Put it in a secondary data center network after a failure required replacement, and needed something affordable in a hurry.

NOT Fiber Only.... but read on *by B***M on January 28, 2023* I purchased this because of the price point even though I was a little skeptical. I have seen reviews and posts that say both RJ45 works and RJ45 doesn't work. I can say without a doubt, the RJ45 SFP+ module I put in is working and is passing traffic FAST. I am using a FS.com SFP-10G-T (66617) 10GBASE-T SFP+ Copper RJ-45 30m Transceiver Module. I am linking up at 1G to a SonicWall over copper and have not had any issues. The switch pulls basic DDM data and thinks it is a 10G port but shows Data Ready FALSE and the switch thinks it is a fiber transceiver - but it works. I also have some SFP+ fiber transceivers that were bought as Netgear Compatible and they are working the same as the copper transceiver - pulling basic DDM data but showing Data Ready FALSE. On a side note, TP-Link now shows on the switch datasheet a TL-SM5310-T. This is a multi-gig copper SFP+ transceiver and the compatibility matrix from the product page lists the TL-SX3008F as compatible (with a note that only one should be used - presumably from the heat generated and this a fanl-ess unit). Although in my initial testing I used 3 and had no problems other than a LOT of heat buildup. After several days my temps are only at 37C, actually lower than the optical SFP+ transceivers. I will probably get one of these transceivers if I start having issues with the FS ones I have. My network as of today (always changing) is as follows: SonicWall TZ400 - (getting public IP from ATT 50M pair bonded service with ATT in passthrough mode, LAN to TP-Link and WAN (WiFi) to the MS510TX on different VLANs) SonicPoint ACi - Connected to one of the GS110EMXs SonicPoint ACe - Connected to the MS510TX TP-Link TL-SX3008F (Aggregates 1G Copper from SonicWall, 10G Fiber from NAS, and feed 10G Fiber out) Netgear MS510TX (4 1G / 2 2.5G / 2 5G / 1 10G / 1 SFP+ fiber to TP-Link) Netgear XS505M (4 MultiGig feeding remote swithces / 1 SFP+ fiber to TP-Link) 2x Netgear GS110EMX (Remote switches in other rooms) Most PC's are running 2.5G and there are (at least) two CAT6A drops in every room.
