TP-LINK Gigabit Smart Switch, designed for workgroups and departments, provides
wire-speed performance and abundant L2 management features. It provides a variety
of service features and multiple powerful functions with high security.
The EIA-standardized framework and smar t configuration capacity can provide flexible
solutions for a variable scale of networks. QoS and IGMP snooping/filtering optimize
voice and video application. Link aggregation increases aggregated bandwidth,
optimizing the transport of business critical data. SNMP, RMON, WEB and CLI Login bring abundant management policies. TP-LINK Gigabit Smart Switch integrates
multiple functions with excellent performance, and is friendly to manage, which can
fully meet the need of the users demanding higher networking per formance.
T1700G-28TQ also supports stacking of up to 6 units, thus providing flexible scalabilit y
and protective redundancy for your networks.

Unit ID LED
Designed to display the stack Unit ID of the switch. For the switch that does not join
any stack system, it displays its default Unit ID. To modify the default unit number,
please logon to the GUI of the switch and go to Stack→Stack Management→Stack Config page and configure the New Unit ID. The new Unit ID will take effect after you
reboot the switch.
Reset
Press this button for 5 seconds or above to reset the software setting back to
factory default settings.
10/100/1000Mbps RJ45 Port
Designed to connect to the device with a bandwidth of 10Mbps, 100Mbps or
1000Mbps. Each has a corresponding Link/Act LED and a 1000Mbps LED.
SFP+ Port
Port 25-28, designed to install the 1Gbps SFP transceiver, 10Gbps SFP+ transceiver
or SFP+ cable.

Kensington Security Slot
Secure the lock (not provided) into the security slot to prevent the device from being
stolen.
Grounding Terminal
The switch already comes with lightning protection mechanism. You can also ground
the switch through the PE (Protecting Earth) cable of AC cord or with Ground Cable.
For detailed information, please refer to Chapter 3 Lightning Protection.
Power Socket
Connect the female connector of the power cord here, and the male connector to
the AC (Alternating Current) power outlet. Please make sure the voltage of the power
supply meets the requirement of the input voltage.
Please keep a proper temperature and humidity in the equipment room. Too high/low
humidity may lead to bad insulation, electricity leakage, mechanical propert y changes
and corrosions. Too high temperature may accelerate aging of the insulation materials
and can thus significantly shorten the service life of the device. For normal temperature
and humidity of the device, please check the following table.

Clearness
The dust accumulated on the switch can be absorbed by static electricity and result
in poor contact of metal contact points. Some measures have been taken for the
device to prevent static electricity, but too strong static electricity can cause deadly
damage to the electronic elements on the internal circuit board. To avoid the effect of
static electricity on the operation of the Switch, please attach much importance to the
following items:
■
Dust the device regularly, and keep the indoor air clean.
■
Keep the device well grounded and ensure static electricity has been transferred.
Electromagnetic Interference
Electronic elements including capacitance and inductance on the device can be
affected by external interferences, such as conducted emission by capacitance
coupling, inductance coupling, and impedance coupling. To decrease the interferences,
please make sure to take the following measures:
■
Use the power supply that can effectively filter interference from the power grid.
■
Keep the device far from high-frequency, strong-current devices, such as radio
transmitting station.
■
Use electromagnetic shielding when necessary.
