Review: This switch is a nightmare - I couldn't form a trunk link between my Cisco switch and this piece of garbage. I started a live chat with TP-Link support and after thinking about it (I was next in the queue for over an hour) I decided, if it's this difficult to get a trunk link up, why bother with it? I returned it and bought a used Brocade ICX 6610. A trunk link is basic switch functionality. The only options were to set the switchport to general mode and tag the VLANs, untag a VLAN, and set the PVID. Nothing worked. Access port? Sure, if I set the port on the Cisco side to access a specific VLAN it worked, but if I need to pass multiple VLANS? Nope. This switch may as well be a dumb switch. The documentation on it sucks as well. The price is good for a brand new switch but I cannot recommend this switch to anyone, for any reason. There are many better choices. I'm very sorry I bought this switch and wasted my time with it just to return it and all the SFPs I bought for it. ## Features - 【10G Lightning-Fast Connections】4 10Gbps SFP+ Ports enable high-bandwidth connectivity and non-blocking switching capacity. - 【Full Gigabit Fiber Speeds】20 Gigabit SFP ports and 4 Gigabit SFP/RJ45 Combo ports offer high-speed and reliable connections. - 【Integrated into 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).

Storage access via 10gb link is fast. Internet access is fast, across the Cisco backbone, and out through the internet router. **Q: Can it use sfp rj45 10gb modules? read much indicating fiber only, wanted to verify if sfp rj45 10gb worked.** A: Yes it can use 10gb rj45 sfp modules. In use, No issues so far. **Q: What modulars can be used with this switch because I have some axis ones and they aren’t working** A: Are the axios modules 1-gigabit SFP modules (as opposed to 10G SFP+ modules)? If so, log into the switch and manually set the port speed for that particular SFP+ port to 1-gigabit. I ran into this issue when I connected this switch to the uplink SFP port of a 1-gigabit switch. When I manually set the link speed on this SFP+ to 1-gigabit, that fixed the problem instantly. If all your modules are 1-gigabit SFP, you may have a chicken-and-egg problem. (You can’t set the port speed because you can’t get into the switch.). If so, you can use the included RJ45/serial cable and use CLI to configure the switch and set the port speed to get in. (That’s what I did.) **Q: Would this require a vpn router? can you recommend one compatible in size to this 10g switch, if not? (sfp ports)** A: No it doesn't require VPN but it's designed be used with the TP-Link Omada system of software or hardware controllers and routers. Within the Omada system its great. If you are looking for a stand alone 10gb switch there are other solutions that would be better and cost less. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Recomendado!

The main function is as expected. The only issue I have with it that brand new out of the box the fan, at its top speed, screams so loud that it overpowers the noise of en entire 40U rack full of equipment. It is ridiculous to say the least. One thing though is that the speed is variable so if the unit is running cool it will be quieter, but as soon as you have some heat, the noise is unbearable. For all of you that would still want to keep it, one thing you can do is to replace the fan on the inside with a Noctua fan that is quiet and efficient in moving the air. Arguably a better solution than the factory, which TP-Link should have implemented to start with. The Noctua NF-A4x20 FLX, Premium Quiet Fan, 3-Pin available on Amazon fit's perfectly as a drop in replacement, 15 mins of effort do it. I will come back and update the review to comment on the switching function and management software once I have more run time with the unit. So far 3 stars is all I can give because of the necessity of modification to a brand new unit. ## Frequently Bought Together - TP-Link TL-SX3016F | 16 Port 10G SFP+ Enterprise Level Switch | L2+ Smart Managed | Omada SDN Integrated | IPv6 | Static Routing | L2/L3/L4 QoS, IGMP & LAG | 5 Year Manufacturer Warranty - TP-Link TL-SM5310-T | 10GBase-T RJ45 SFP+ Module | 10G Copper SFP+ Transceiver | SFP+ to Ethernet | Plug and Play | Hot Pluggable | Up to 30m distance| | Durable Metal Casing | Versatile Compatibility - TP-Link TL-SG3428X | Jetstream 24 Port Gigabit Switch, 4 x 10GE SFP+ Slots | L2+ Smart Managed | Omada SDN Integrated | IPv6 | Static Routing | Support QoS, IGMP & LAG | 5 Year Manufacturer Warranty --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/624046898-tp-link-tl-sg3428xf-24-port-sfp-enterprise-level-switch](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/624046898-tp-link-tl-sg3428xf-24-port-sfp-enterprise-level-switch) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-30*
