QNAP TS-432XeU-4G
A compact business-grade NAS with four drive bays, a quad-core 1.7GHz ARM processor, one 10GbE SFP+ port, dual 2.5GbE ports and a 292mm short-depth rackmount chassis.
What is the QNAP TS-432XeU-4G?
The TS-432XeU-4G is a compact 4-bay rackmount NAS designed for backup, file sharing, team collaboration and containerized applications. Its short-depth 1U chassis suits small cabinets and cable-heavy racks, while built-in 10GbE and 2.5GbE connectivity supports high-speed access for individual users and teams.
Compact Rackmount Storage for Growing Teams
High-value business storage designed to reduce space and technical overhead.
The TS-432XeU combines four-bay storage capacity with high-speed networking in a 12-inch short-depth chassis. It is designed to support everyday backup and restore tasks, shared file access and team collaboration without occupying the depth of a conventional rackmount server.
Its compact form allows installation in small media cabinets, wall-mounted racks and other space-constrained environments, including small offices, factories, security monitoring rooms, media studios and in-vehicle setups.
