Question:

Can I connect the SFP ports of the TP-Link
T1600G-28TS Switch to an SFP network card (for example: DELOCK PCI Express Card with 2 x SFP Slot Gigabit LAN) and  do support the SFP ports link aggregation?

 

switch(2 SFP LAG )-------(2 SFP Ports NIC ) Windows Server PC,

is this generally possible or is the purpose of the SFP ports just to serve as an uplink to connect to another switch?

 

thank you!

Dear User,

 

The SFP ports of T1600G-28TS is not only used for uplink port but also used for connecting other deivces. And SFP ports also can be used for link aggregation. But please note that the parameter of the SFP and link aggregation mode should be the same for both devices.

Hello Anderson,

 

Apologies for digging up an old post, but I am not able to find a definitive answer to my question.

Can you please clarify if the SFP ports on T1600-28TS can be used with 1Gb RJ45 modules or only with fiber?

 

Thank you

Unfortunately TP-Link switch doesn't support RJ45 SFP module yet.
