Chapter 2 Introduction
Thanks for choosing the T1500-28PCT Smart PoE Switch !
2.1 Overview of the Switch
Designed for workgroups and departments, T1500-28PCT from T P-LINK provides wire-speed
performance and full set of layer 2 management features. It provides a variety of service features
and multiple powerful functions with high security.
The EIA-standardized framework and smart configuration capacity can provide flexible solutions
for a variable scale of networks. QoS and IGMP snooping/filtering optimize voice and video
application. Link aggregation (LACP) increase aggregated bandwidth, optimizing the transport of
business critical data. SNMP, R MON, WEB/Telnet/SS H Log-in bring abundant management
policies. T1500-28PCT switch integrates multiple functions with excellent performance, and is
friendly to manage, which can fully meet the need of the users demanding higher networking
performance.
2.2 Main Features
• Resilie ncy and Av ailability
+ IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree provides high link availability in multiple VLAN
environments.
+ Multicast snooping automatically prevents flooding of IP multicast traffic.
+ Root Guard protects root bridge from malicious attack or configuration mistakes
• Layer 2 Switching
+ Supports up to 512 VLANs simultaneously (out of 4K VLAN IDs).
• Quality of Service
+ Supports L2/L3 granular CoS with 4 priority queues per port.
+ Rate limiting confines the traffic flow accurately according to the preset value.
• Manageability
+ Supports Telnet, SNMP v1/v2c/v3, RMON and web access.
+ Port Mirroring enables monitoring selected ingress/egress traffic.

The following parts are located on the front panel of the switch:
LEDs
T1500-28PCT has an LED mode switch button which is for s witching the LED status indication.
When the Speed LED is on, the port LED is indicating the data transmission rate. When the PoE
LED is on, the port LED is indicating the power supply status. By default the Speed LED is on.
Pressing the mode switch button, the Speed LED will turn off and the PoE LED will light up. Then
the PoE LED will turn off after being on for 60 seconds and the Speed LED will light up again.
When the 10/100M is on, the port LED is indicating the data transmission rate.

10/100Mbps Ports: Designed to connect to the device with a bandwidth of 10Mbps or
100Mbps. Each has a corresponding 10/100M or PoE LED.
10/100/1000Mbps Ports: Designed to connect to the device with a bandwidth of 10Mbps,
100Mbps or 1000Mbps. Each has a corresponding 1000M LED.

SFP Po rts: Designed to install the SFP module. T1500-28PCT features some SFP transceiver
slots that are shared with the associated RJ45 ports. The associated two ports are referred as a
"Combo" port, which means they cannot be used simultaneously, otherwise only SFP port
works. Meanwhile, the associated two ports share the same LED. For T1500-28PCT, Port 27
shares the same LED with Port 27F and Port 28 shares the same LED with Port 28F.
Note:
When using the SFP port with a 100Mbps module or a gigabit module, you need to configure its
corresponding Speed an d Duplex mode on Switching→Port→Port Config page or through
Telnet. For 100M module, please select 100MFD while select 1000MFD for gigabit module. By
default, the Speed and Duplex mode of SFP port is 1000MFD.
2.3.2 Rear Panel

Grounding Terminal (marked with
The rear panel of T1500-28PCT is shown as the following figure.
Kensington Security Socket: Secure the lock (not provided) into the security slot to prevent
the device from being stolen.
Grounding Terminal: T1500-28PCT already comes with Lightning Protection Mechanism. You
can also ground the switch through the PE (Protecting Earth) cable of AC cord or with the
ground cable.

Chapter 4 System
The System module is mainly for system configuration of the switch, including four submenus:
System Info, Use r Manage, System Tools and Acce ss Security.
4.1 System Info
The System Info, mainly for basic properties configuration, can be implemented on Sys t e m
Summar y, Dev ice Description, Syste m Time , Daylight Saving Time and Syste m IP pages.
4.1.1 System Summary
On this page you can view the port connection status and the system information.
The port status diagram shows the working status of 24 10/100Mbps RJ45 ports, 4
10/100/1000Mbps RJ45 ports and 2 SFP ports of the switch. Ports 1 to 24 are 10/100Mbps ports.
Ports 25-28 are 10/100/1000Mbps ports, among which ports 27 and 28 are Combo ports with SFP
ports labeled 27F and 28F.

4.1.5 System IP
Each device in the network possesses a unique IP address. You can log on to the Web
management page to operate the switch using this IP address. The switch supports three modes
to obtain an IP address: Static IP, DHCP and BOOTP. The IP address obtained using a new mode
will replace the original IP address. On this page you can configure the system IP of the switch.

Note:
1. Changing the IP address to a different IP segment will interrupt the network communication, so
please keep the new IP address in the same IP segment with the local network.
2. The switch only possesses an IP address. The IP address configured will replace the original
IP address.
3. If the switch gets the IP address from DHCP server, you can see the configuration of the
switch in the DHCP server; if DHCP option is selected but no DHCP server exists in the
network, the switch will keep obtaining IP address from DHCP server until success.
17
4. If DHCP or BOOTP option is selected, the switch will get network parameters dynamically
from the Internet, which means that IP address, subnet mask and default gateway cannot be
configured.
5. By default, the IP address is 192.168.0.1.
4.2 User Management
User Management functions to configure the user name and password for users to log on to the
Web management page with a certain access level so as to protect the settings of the switch from
being randomly changed.
The Use r Management function can be implemented on User Table and Use r Config pages.
