Hi, hopefully a simple question/recommendation request for my home office solution.  I currently have a Cisco SG200-8 switch that works fine but I need more ports as my network hub has grown. 

 

Requirements:-

  • 16 ports or more
  • Fanless
  • 802.3ad LACP supports as I have a Synology disk station that I use link aggregation on.
  • POE is a nice to have

 

I’ve looked at the TP-Link product line up and the following seem to offer what I need:

  • TL-SG2216
  • T1600G-18TS
  • T1700G-28TQ

 

Have I missed anything obvious in these models and recommendation?

 

Thanks in advance, Peter

@PeterWBaker 

 

It seems that all TP-Link PoE switches have fan. So maybe you need a non-PoE switch.

 

T1700G-28TQ support stack function. If you don't need stack, do not suggest this model. So you can choose T1600G-18TS or T1600G-28TS.

@Andone Thanks for the reply, yes I came to the same conclusion about PoE and fans which kind of makes sense...  Will go without PoE as not having the noise is more important, appreciate the reply above.  Peter
