TP-LinkTL-SG3428 | 24 Port Gigabit Switch, 4 SFP Slots | Omada SDN Integrated | L2+ Smart Managed | IPv6 | Static Routing | L2/L3/L4 QoS, IGMP & LAG | 3 Year Manufacturer Warranty

This is a great value if you are looking to enhance your home network. I picked this item for the 4 x sfp+ 10gig ports that I need to make everything in my home network run smoothly. If you have a couple switches in your home or small office, get the sfp+ ports so you can connect your networking gear with fiber (if possible). I combined this with a PoE switch by the same manufacturer to help cut down on bottlenecks in my home network traffic.

This switch was incredibly simple to setup. It worked immediately on startup and after adopting into my existing Omada network and setting its IP address and port labels all was working perfectly.

Got this switch to work with TP-Link's OC200, ER7206 and APs through TP's Omada cloud based network management. I had to contact tech support to properly adopt the switch because my configuration is tricky with a lot of VLANs and net segmentation. It needs DHCP on the VLAN to properly adopt; afterwards, you can assign a static address and disable DHCP. After an hour of tech support and a firmware update out of the box, it has been dead reliable and easy to manage. It has every feature you'd want in a switch and when connected to Omada, insanely easy to manage.

Switch seems fine. Good standard management features.I got a v 1.0 hardwareIt appears to be that some Jetstream devices have USB console drivers that are not included in Linux, and the windows driver is not signed, and not auto-installed. This made me look at my other devices and I found two out of seven devices had this issue, including one of two with the same model number.Probably due to the older hardware version. Waiting to hear back from TP-Link support.Not a huge deal as you can use the included serial console port/cable if you have a supported Com port.EDIT: TP-Link support looked into this issue, seemed to spend a lot of time with it, but is acting like it is a non-issue. To be fair, you can still use the serial console cable and a separate usb serial device.

First thing you need to make sure if using the omada controller is that it's firmware is up to date. Once the controller is up to date, it is very easy to navigate the omada app to adopt and configure. If you understand networking you wont even need the manual. It's all pretty straight forward and easy. 5 stars!

I am upgrading my home network. First I added an Omada Wifi Access Point setup to support four VLANS. Easy peasy. Next, I added this switch, but the initial configuration is a little more difficult since the switch has to support a much larger feature set. The GUI is relatively easy to use, but I couldn't get my VLANs working. After a few days of frustration, I decided to try out TP-Link's online chat support. My agent was XANDREX. In just a few minutes, they helped me determine that what step in the process I missed and boom! Everything works great!So far, I am really happy that I chose Omada over Unifi - easier implementation and great online support. Oh, and when I am ready, I can run the Omada Controller that will allow me to manage all my devices from a single plane of glass. Nice!

good product

I first bought a TL-SG2428P, not realising how crazy loud & annoying the fans were. Though I did want the PoE functionality, it wasn't worth the noise. So I got this model (TL-SG3428) instead and haven't looked back. Granted, PoE functionality has to be added on separately, but there are lots of fanless options for that.It's run for months now without any problems. I manage it directly using its built-in web server, and in a minor way via SNMP. Everything works well. The web GUI is similar to other contemporary TP-Link switches & routers. It's a little hard to find things sometimes - there's so many configuration options, and it's not always intuitive as to where they are in the navigation hierarchy.Overall I'm really happy with it. I think it's good value too, compared to the other options I've been able to find.
