Upgrade and simplify your network with the TRENDnet 8-Port Gigabit GREENnet PoE+ Switch, model TPE-TG81g. This compact, rugged switch combines power and data delivery in a single, easy-to-deploy device, perfect for small offices, retail locations, surveillance setups, and wireless access point extensions. Built with a durable metal chassis and a rack-mountable form factor, it fits neatly into any equipment rack, cabinet, or desktop workspace, helping you keep cables organized and your network running smoothly. The internal power supply eliminates bulky external adapters, while the 110W total PoE budget and 30W per-port capacity give you the flexibility to power a wide range of PoE-enabled devices—from IP cameras and VoIP phones to wireless access points and smart lighting. With 16 Gbps of switching capacity, this switch handles multiple devices simultaneously with low latency, ensuring responsive performance for real-time applications. TRENDnet’s GREENnet energy-saving technology helps reduce power consumption during periods of low activity, making this switch not only powerful but also environmentally friendly. Whether you’re expanding an existing network or building a new PoE-enabled infrastructure, the TPE-TG81g provides a reliable, plug-and-play solution that minimizes installation time and ongoing operating costs.

  • Eight PoE+ ports deliver up to 30W per port with a combined 110W PoE budget, enabling robust power delivery to IP cameras, wireless access points, and other PoE devices.
  • 16 Gbps switching capacity supports quick data transfer across all connected devices, reducing bottlenecks in busy networks and ensuring smooth streaming and collaboration.
  • Durable metal enclosure with a rack-mountable design simplifies installation in professional environments while keeping your equipment organized and secure.
  • GREENnet energy efficiency reduces power consumption for idle ports and devices, helping lower operating costs without compromising performance.

How to install TRENDnet TPE-TG81g

  • Choose a suitable mounting location. If you plan to rack-mount the switch, use the included or compatible rack ears and secure the unit in a standard 19-inch rack to ensure stability and proper airflow.
  • Power the switch using the internal power supply. Connect the power cord to a grounded outlet and verify that the LED indicators illuminate, signaling normal startup.
  • Connect the uplink or core network device (such as a router or another switch) to one of the Gigabit Ethernet ports on the TPE-TG81g using a Cat5e (or better) Ethernet cable. This establishes the path for data to enter and exit the PoE network.
  • Power on your PoE-enabled devices (IP cameras, access points, VoIP phones, etc.) and connect them to the remaining PoE+ ports on the switch. The switch will automatically negotiate power and data speeds with each device, providing up to 30W per port where required and within the 110W total budget.
  • Test connectivity and performance. Since this is an unmanaged switch, there is no software configuration required. Confirm that connected devices obtain network access and that PoE devices power on reliably. If you encounter any issues, verify cable integrity, port connections, and the total PoE consumption to ensure you stay within the 110W budget.
  • Optional: For organized installations, use cable management practices to route cables neatly and maintain adequate ventilation around the switch to prevent overheating in dense rack environments.

Frequently asked questions

  • Q: Does the TRENDnet TPE-TG81g support IEEE 802.3af/at PoE+ on all ports?

Durable and fun
Size: 4 Pieces, Size: 4 Pieces
I have a chewer who gets bored in the afternoon. She loves these Lego blocks. They’re sturdy enough for a big chewer and they hold her interest . She really enjoys figuring out how to get her breakfast!

Love the idea!
Size: 6 Pieces, Size: 6 Pieces
Love the idea of this product! Arrived 3/25/2026 and started using it the same day. Lab puppies (8 months old) loved it too, until one of the tabs was chewed off 😞 One of the puppies ate something (not this product) last week and was sick & finally threw up the rubber pieces he ate. So they can’t use the toys they love!

Get 8 pack for bigger / stronger dogs
Size: 6 Pieces, Size: 6 Pieces
This is the best puzzle toy i have found for my GSD mix. All around high quality product 10/10. Thick, durable rubbery material that holds up against a strong chewer. Individual pieces are big and bulky enough that i don’t have to worry about my bigger dog accidentally (or intentionally) swallowing a piece, so i don’t need to supervise. That being said, if you have a bigger dog or a strong chewer, i HIGHLY recommend getting the 8 pack if you actually want to keep them busy for more than 20 mins consistently. Bigger dogs just have more leverage to tug on the pieces because obviously…they are bigger, so its just easier for them. The more pieces you add and more tangled/thicker you can make it, the less leverage they have and the harder it is for them to get a good grip. I have a german shepherd/pitbull mix (big boi, v smart, v strong) and i initially got the 4 pack which, after the first few times, only took him about 5 mins to get all the pieces apart even with level 5 connections. So I ordered an additional 6 pieces (i have a total of 10 pieces now) so i could make it harder for him and it was totally worth it. Now I use 8 pieces with level 5 connections and vital essentials freeze dried beef liver treats inside for my GSD and it consistently takes him 30+ mins to get the whole thing apart. I have timed this lol. I can rebuild the 8 pieces multiple different ways to make it more or less challenging (but i always opt for as difficult as possible to keep him entertained for as long as possible) I use the other two pieces with a level 1 or 2 connection for my other dog- bordercollie mix who is not a very strong chewer, he mostly just rolls it around/ licks it until it finally opens or i help him. Both of my dogs are obsessed with this. And i love watching them try to figure it out.

Awesome Tough Chewer Focus Puzzle
Size: 8 Pieces, Size: 8 Pieces
Our 2 yr old busy Mini Goldendoodle (24lbs) looooves this! The material is super tough, yet malleable; he has chewed away and you can’t even tell. We got the 8 pack, worth it! I load them all up with mostly kibble and a treat or two. It took just a short time for him to figure out how to really get it apart. On 1 it came apart really easy for him. We are mostly on 3s, with 2s. When he gets down to only 2 pieces connected it’s usually a 3 and it takes a little longer to get apart due to less leverage. It is mostly easy to use but the higher the plug end is, the more effort it will also take for YOU to get it together. The numbers are a little hard to see, more so on the yellow over the blue. If you use kibble like me, don’t fill it too full as then it won’t connect fully and be prepared for kibble to fly everywhere when they finally get it off. There are holes in the plug part, if you put something in it like peanut butter, remember to poke the holes out! Eew! Other than that they are fairly easy wash out in the sink! Overall, this has become our go to, extended focus, quiet time, [essentially a] slow feeder!

Great!
Size: 4 Pieces
I have a mini Australian Shepherd (37 lbs) and she loves this! She can get level one but has a tougher time with level 2. I have tried 3 but she gives up so she hasn't gotten further than that lol. She is quite stubborn and gives up easy if she can't figure something out and is totally over it. The quality is great as it is thick and not easy to destroy. My fur baby does love it, she seems to think it is fun for at least an hour so it is worth it in my eyes. There are times I have to do something that takes longer and I just can't play with her so this is perfect for her. It was definitely worth the money
