Note:
PoE/PoE+ ports typically connect to PoE Devices. Besides, PoE/PoE+ ports can also connect to non-PoE devices, but only transmit data.
TL-SG1210P has two uplink ports, which typically connect to uplink devices like routers.
Uplink 1 is an SFP port and works with a 1000 Mbps SFP module. Uplink 2 is an RJ45 port.
For TL-SG1008P, maximum PoE power is 15.4 W for each PoE port and 55 W for all PoE ports in total.
For TL-SG1210P, maximum PoE power is 30 W for each PoE port and 63 W for all PoE ports in total.

PoE budget calculations are based on laboratory testing. Actual PoE power budget is not guranteed and will vary as a result of client
limitations and environmental factors.
