Linking two TL-SG5428 via the SFP ports
Region : UnitedKingdom
Model : TL-SG5428
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version :
ISP :
We're looking to completely gut our network and start from scratch as it's a mess of random switches and messy cabling.
What we plan to do is put two TL-SG5428 24 port switches at either end of the building and link them in the fastest way possible.
I believe I can aggregate two of the SFP ports at each end and join them that way, but what I don't entirely understand is how we would cable this up.
Would I need a pair of media converters at each end, then run CAT5/6 between the two?
Any recommendations on what hardware to buy would be gratefully received!
