Network Switch DAHUA TL-SG1005LP Gigabit Ethernet PoE, 5 ports, unmanaged

DAHUA TL-SG1005LP is a compact unmanaged network switch that provides five Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports with Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability. Intended for small networks and IP surveillance setups, the switch supplies both data and electrical power over standard Ethernet cables to compatible devices, reducing the need for separate power supplies. Its plug-and-play design requires no configuration, making it suitable for straightforward installations in offices, retail environments, and residential locations.

Advantages

The switch delivers full Gigabit throughput on all ports for high-speed data transfer and low latency, supporting smooth video streaming from IP cameras and fast file transfers. Integrated PoE simplifies deployment of network devices by combining data and power delivery in a single cable, lowering installation complexity and cabling costs. As an unmanaged device, it operates without user configuration, offering reliable baseline connectivity with minimal maintenance.

Suitable for

• Small office local area networks
• IP surveillance systems with PoE cameras
• Wireless access point deployments requiring PoE
• Retail point-of-sale and monitoring setups
• Home networks needing additional Gigabit ports

Key specifications

• Number of ports: 5 Gigabit RJ45 ports
• PoE support: Yes — PoE on designated ports for powering compatible devices
• Transmission speeds: 10/100/1000 Mbps auto-negotiation
• Switch type: Unmanaged, plug-and-play operation
• Form factor: Desktop / compact metal or plastic housing (compact footprint)
• Typical use: Network edge device for small-scale deployments and IP camera connections

How to use

Install the switch on a stable surface near your network devices and connect it to your router or uplink using a Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable. Plug compatible PoE devices such as IP cameras or access points into the PoE-enabled RJ45 ports; the switch will provide data and power automatically without additional configuration. Use standard Ethernet cables for wired clients on the remaining ports. Ensure proper ventilation and place the unit away from direct heat sources for stable operation.

Usage recommendations

For reliable power delivery, verify the power requirements of connected PoE devices and the switch's total PoE budget before connecting multiple high-consumption units. Use quality Cat5e or Cat6 cables for Gigabit performance and consider centralizing the switch near cameras or access points to reduce cable runs.
