QNAP Introduces 24-Port 10GbE L3 Lite Managed Switch, QSW-M3224-24T
QNAP
Systems, Inc., a leading computing, networking, and storage solutions
innovator, released its first full 10GbE L3 Lite managed switch, QSW-M3224-24T.
Featuring twenty-four 10G Multi-Gig ports, L3 Lite management capabilities and
MC-LAG network redundancy, QSW-M3224-24T assists enterprises in deploying
stable and efficient mid to large-scale high-speed network infrastructure,
accelerating 4K video streaming and AV-over-IP applications.
"As enterprises grow in scale and the number of
networked devices increases, the demand for switches also escalates, making the
management of large network infrastructure more complex and challenging,” said
Jerry Deng, Product Manager of QNAP, adding “as QNAP's first L3 managed switch
offering multi-port 10GbE networking and advanced L3 management features,
QSW-M3224-24T not only fulfills the needs of low-latency and high-density 10G
network applications, but also supports advanced IP routing and network
segmentation management. QSW-M3224-24T is ideal for small and medium-sized
enterprises to expand their LAN efficiently and securely within a limited
budget."
The QSW-M3224-24T adopts the latest QNAP Switch System (QSS)
Pro network management software. QSS Pro provides L3 Lite management including
IP settings (IPv4, IPv6, DNS), static routing, DHCP server, SNTP, and advanced
VLAN features to enable more granular deployment and management of segmented
network transmission infrastructures. It also supports Multi-chassis Link
Aggregation (MC-LAG) to ensure uninterrupted switch networking, providing high
availability and fault tolerance. With IGMP Snooping functions and SNMP
management, along with an AV-over-IP wizard, the QSW-M3224-24T can connect
multiple AV endpoints and forward multicast traffic to avoid network congestion
and unnecessary data transmission. This reduces latency and improves network
connection efficiency while enabling optimized network management.
The QSW-M3224-24T comes with twenty-four 10GbE RJ45 ports,
which is compatible with Multi-Gigabit NBASE-T (10G/5G/2.5G/1G) technologies
and provides with up to 480Gbps of switching capacity for connecting multiple
L2 managed switches, unmanaged switches, and high-speed network devices. Up to
10Gbps speed per 10GbE RJ45 port can be achieved using CAT 6a cables (or
better). It also provides Layer 2 management functions (such as LACP, ACL and
QoS) for efficient network bandwidth controls and enhanced network security,
and Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) for users to deploy small/medium-scale
networks that support expansion, redundancy, and loop prevention.
