QNAP QSW-M1208-8C Managed Switch
A rackmount Layer 2 web-managed switch with four dedicated 10GbE SFP+ ports, eight 10GbE SFP+/RJ45 combo ports, a separate Gigabit management port and a stated switching capacity of 240Gbps.
Twelve 10GbE positions for demanding fibre and copper networks
The QNAP QSW-M1208-8C combines four dedicated SFP+ ports with eight SFP+/RJ45 combo positions for mixed 10GbE fibre and copper deployment. QSS web management, Layer 2 controls, RSTP and flow control support multi-workstation file access, multimedia, virtualisation and other bandwidth-intensive business traffic.
Key features and benefits
Four dedicated SFP+ ports
Four fibre interfaces provide dedicated 10GbE connections.
Eight 10GbE combo positions
Eight positions provide SFP+ fibre or RJ45 copper connectivity.
Five-speed RJ45 support
The copper combo interfaces support 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G and 100M speeds.
Separate management port
One 1GbE RJ45 port is provided for management.
Layer 2 network controls
LACP, VLAN, ACL and LLDP support managed bandwidth and access policies.
RSTP and flow control
RSTP supports redundancy and loop prevention, while IEEE 802.3x manages full-duplex traffic.
