Chapter 2 Introduction
Thanks for choosing the T3700G-28TQ JetStream 28-Port Gigabit Stackable L3 Managed
Switch!
2.1 Overview of the Switch
T3700G-28TQ is TP-Link’s JetStream layer 3 stackable switch, supporting up to 4 SFP+ slots.
T3700G-28TQ is ideal for large enterprises, campuses or SMB networks requiring an
outstanding, reliable and affordable 10 Gigabit solution. T3700G-28TQ supports stacking of up
to 8 units, thus providing flexible scalability and protective redundancy for your networks.
Moreover, aiming to better protect your network, T3700G-28TQ’s main power is removable,
with the help of TP-Link’s RPS, administrators can easily change its main power if it encounters
some problems without shutting down the switch. This feature enables your network to really
enjoy the benefit of uninterrupted operation.

bandwidth of 10Mbps, 100Mbps or 1000Mbps. Each has a corresponding
10/100/1000Mbps LED.
SFP Ports: Port 21F-24F, designed to install the SFP transceiver. These four SFP
transceiver slots 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 RJ45 port works.
SFP+ Ports: Port 25-26, designed to install the 10Gbps SFP+ transceiver/cable.
T3700G-28TQ also provides an interface card slot on the rear panel to install the expansion
card (TX432 of TP-Link for example). If TX432 is installed, you get another two 10Gbps SFP+
ports.
Unit ID LED: Designed to display the stack unit number of the switch. For the switch that
does not join any stack system, it displays its default unit number. To modify the default unit

Note:
The Interface Card Slot, RPS Input Connector and AC Power Supply Module Slot are shipped
with protective covers.
Interface Card Slot: Designed to extend the interfaces. You can select an Interface Card
(TX432 of TP-Link for example) for your switch if needed.
Grounding Terminal: T3700G-28TQ 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 Installation Guide.
RPS Input Connector: Provides an interface to connect the RPS (Redundant Power Supply).
You can select an RPS (RPS150 of TP-Link for example) for your switch if needed.
Power Supply Module Slot: Provides an interface to install the Power Supply Module. An
AC Power Supply Module PSM150-AC is provided with the switch.
With all the protective covers removed, and the Interface Card (TX432) & Power Supply Module
(PSM150-AC) inserted, the rear panel of T3700G-28TQ is shown as the following figure.
