TP-Link TL-SL1226P 24-Port PoE+ Unmanaged Switch – 250W Budget, 250m Extend Mode, Plug and Play

Your camera network is dropping frames because the PoE budget ran out halfway down the corridor. Or you're juggling three different switches to power a dozen APs and still short on ports. The TL-SL1226P kills that problem in one box.

Twenty-four PoE+ ports at 30 W each, 250 W of total headroom. Two Gigabit uplinks plus two combo SFP slots when you need fibre to the next floor. Extend Mode stretches data and power to 250 m on a single cable — no mid-run injector needed for that long corridor of cameras.

Priority Mode locks ports 1–8 so your video feed keeps talking even when the rest of the network is busy. Isolation Mode separates client traffic with one button, no ACLs to write. Plug it in, power the PDs, done. No login, no firmware hunt, no configuration screen at 7:45 am on a Monday.

Two fans keep it cool under full load. 440 × 180 × 44 mm — fits a standard 1U shelf or a server cupboard without eating the whole bay
