10/100Mbps RJ45 Port

Designed to connect to the device with a bandwidth of 10Mbps or 100Mbps. Each has a corresponding 10/100M LED.

10/100/1000Mbps RJ45 Port

Designed to connect to the device with a bandwidth of 10Mbps, 100Mbps or 1000Mbps. Each has a corresponding 1000M LED.

SFP Port

Designed to install the SFP module. TL-SL2218/TL-SL2428 features some SFP transceiver slots that 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 SFP port works. Meanwhile, the associated two ports share the same LED. For TL-SL2218, Port 17 shares the same LED with Port 17F and Port 18 shares the same LED with Port 18F; for TL-SL2428 Port 27 shares the same LED with Port 27F and Port 28 shares the same LED with Port 28F.
