Description
-
The MT‑SG1012PE provides:
-
8 × 10/100 Mbps PoE ports (auto-detect and supply IEEE 802.3af/at devices)
-
2 × Gigabit uplink RJ45 ports (10/100/1000 Mbps)
-
2 × Gigabit SFP uplink ports
-
PoE budget: up to 30 W per port, 120 W total
-
Switching capacity: 24 Gbps fabric, 2K MAC address table
-
Plug-and-play/unmanaged operation; includes “AI Monitor” to detect anomalies
-
-
Additional features:
-
IEEE 802.3x flow control (full-duplex), backpressure (half‑duplex)
-
Green Ethernet energy-saving, auto MDI/MDIX, LEDs for status
-
Use Cases & Comparisons
-
Best suited for powering devices like IP cameras, WAPs, and VoIP phones using 8 PoE‑capable devices with up to 30 W each.
-
Total PoE power (120 W) limits simultaneous full‑30 W usage across all 8 ports.
-
Includes both RJ45 and fiber SFP uplinks—useful if you’re connecting upstream via Gigabit or fiber.
-
Compared to 10/100-only MT‑SW1008PE, which is slower (no Gigabit uplinks, only 100 Mbps ports) and offers 110 W total power
-
Competing options like TP‑Link TL‑SG1008MP (8-port Gigabit PoE+ switch) support 153 W total PoE with full Gigabit on all ports—very similar specs but better internal throughput and standard global availability
Limitations & Caveats
-
Unmanaged: no VLAN, power monitoring, or remote management.
-
Firmware seems vendor-specific; lack of official update channels or community support may be a concern.
-
Consumer feedback on similar lower-cost PoE switches (MokerLink et al.) highlights occasional failures, missing firmware support, and inconsistent quality control
📊 Quick Comparison Table
| Feature | MT‑SG1012PE | TP‑Link TL‑SG1008MP |
|---|---|---|
| PoE Ports | 8 × 10/100 Mbps | 8 × Gigabit |
| Uplink Ports | 2 × Gigabit RJ45 + 2 SFP | 8 × Gigabit RJ45 only |
| Total PoE Budget | 120 W | 153 W |
| Per-Port PoE Power | 30 W | 30 W |
| Switching Capacity | 24 Gbps backplane | 16 Gbps |
| Management | Unmanaged | Unmanaged |
| Price (PKR, local) | Typically lower | Usually higher/more costly |
| Reliability | Limited vendor support | Established brand, better QA |
Should You Choose MT‑SG1012PE?
-
Good if you want a low‑cost plug‑and‑play PoE solution with basic Gigabit uplinks and fiber support.
-
Less ideal if you need Gigabit speed on all ports, management capabilities, future firmware support, or vendor reliability.
-
TP‑Link’s TL‑SG1008MP or TL‑SG1210MP (with SFP/RJ45 combo) offers higher total PoE power, full Gigabit per port, and stronger brand credibility in Pakistan
Final Recommendation
-
If your PoE devices are 100 Mbps capable and your uplink is Gigabit or fiber, MT‑SG1012PE may serve well for small deployments (e.g. up to eight cameras or APs).
-
For higher throughput or more dependable support, TP‑Link’s Gigabit PoE switches are strongly recommended—even if they cost a bit more.
