Goodmorning,

i hava an omada system with a tl-sg2210mp switch. However, I am falling short a dozen ports. Not really poe+ ports. How can I add another switch? Do I just plug this in to the router and can it then be managed through the oc200? 
Or do I need to connect it to the oc200 as well?

does each port on the second switch still then have max capacity?

thank you for your help!

Just plug it in, adopt and go.

 

You will likely get better switching performance if you are fully populating the switches if you connect it to your existing switch, especially if you use a lag
