Mixed-Interface 10GbE Half-Width Managed Switch
QNAP QSW-M3212R-8S4T Managed Switch
A half-width rackmount Layer 2 web-managed switch with eight 10GbE SFP+ fibre ports, four 10GbE Multi-Gig RJ45 ports and a listed switching capacity of 240Gbps.
Flexible 10GbE fibre and copper connectivity in a half-width design
The QNAP QSW-M3212R-8S4T combines eight SFP+ fibre ports with four Multi-Gig RJ45 ports for high-speed SMB and SOHO networks. QSS web management, Layer 2 controls, RSTP and flow control support mixed-interface deployment, while the half-width chassis allows two compatible switches to share a 1U rack space.
Key features and benefits
Eight 10GbE SFP+ ports
Eight fibre ports support listed 10G/1G operation.
Four Multi-Gig RJ45 ports
Four copper ports support 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G and 100M speeds.
Half-width rackmount design
Two compatible half-width switches can be installed in a single 1U rack space.
QSS web management
The interface provides an overview dashboard, port management and a settings guide.
Layer 2 controls
LACP, VLAN, ACL and LLDP are highlighted for managed network operation.
RSTP and flow control
RSTP supports redundancy and loop prevention, while IEEE 802.3x manages full-duplex traffic.
