Multi-gig access with four 10G SFP+ uplinks
24× 2.5GbE RJ454× 10G SFP+200Gbps fabric1U web-smart management
The TRENDnet TEG-3284WS combines 24 copper multi-gig ports with four dedicated SFP+ uplinks in a black 1U rackmount chassis. Its web-smart L2+ management supports VLAN segmentation, link aggregation, traffic prioritization and limited static routing for a configured business network. A smart fan cools the switch, and the internal power supply connects directly to AC mains.
Best For: SMB networks connecting multi-gig computers, NAS devices and separately powered access points, with suitable 10G SFP+ uplinks.
Before you order: The 28-port total means 24 RJ45 ports plus four SFP+ slots. Copper ports reach 2.5Gbps, rather than 10Gbps. This is a non-PoE switch. SFP/SFP+ modules and network cables are separate; check compatibility at both link ends. Local web management is available, while TRENDnet Hive cloud service may involve additional fees.
What's in the Box
- TEG-3284WS switch with internal power supply.
- 1.8m power cord, rackmount kit and quick installation guide.
- SFP/SFP+ modules, network cables, rack, computers and access points are separate.
What It Means in Practice
- Use Cat5e or better cabling and multi-gig capable endpoints for 2.5Gbps copper links.
- Choose compatible 1G SFP or 10G SFP+ links, optics and fibre/DAC cabling as appropriate.
- Configure VLANs, uplink aggregation and QoS for the actual network topology; compatible peers are required.
- Allow rack airflow and plan safe AC power and mounting. The smart fan means this is not a fanless desktop switch.
- For cloud setup, the guide requires Internet access and DHCP addressing. Review current Hive terms before use.
What Will Not Work
- No PoE power output; connected powered devices need another suitable power source.
- SFP+ slots are not built-in 10G RJ45 ports, and no optical modules are claimed as included.
- 200Gbps is switching-fabric capacity, rather than guaranteed application throughput on one connection.
- L2+ static routing does not imply unrestricted dynamic routing, firewall or Internet-gateway functionality.
Key Features
24 multi-gig access ports
RJ45 links support 10Mbps, 100Mbps, 1Gbps and 2.5Gbps for suitable endpoints.
Four dedicated uplinks
Four SFP+ slots support 1Gbps or 10Gbps with compatible modules and link equipment.
Configured traffic control
VLANs, LACP, QoS, per-port bandwidth control and multicast snooping help organize network traffic.
Practical rack management
Web GUI, SNMP monitoring and limited CLI administration accompany a 1U chassis and smart fan.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are all 28 ports copper?
No. There are 24 copper RJ45 ports and four dedicated SFP+ uplink slots.
Does it power access points through PoE?
No PoE output is specified for this model. Provide suitable separate power.
Is it fanless?
No. The detailed specification lists one smart fan and a maximum 38.6dBA noise level.
Are SFP+ modules supplied?
They are optional equipment, rather than listed package contents. Choose compatible link components.
Does cloud management replace the local web interface?
The switch has local web management. Hive is an additional remote cloud option; fees and service requirements may apply.
Singular Expert Insight
Plan the copper access layer and uplinks separately. A 2.5Gbps computer needs a compatible network adapter and cabling, while the SFP+ path needs matching modules and link media. VLAN, routing and aggregation settings should reflect the actual topology. Budget for the rack, fan acoustics and external device power.
Buyer’s Guide
✓ Buy it if You need 24 multi-gig copper connections, four SFP+ uplinks and configurable network management in a rack.
✕ Skip it if You require PoE output, fanless operation, 10G copper on every port or included optical modules.
→ Also consider Endpoint speeds, optics/DAC compatibility, VLAN design, rack airflow, fan noise and optional Hive costs.
