QNAP 12-Port 10GbE Managed Switch with 4x 10GbE SFP+/RJ45 Combo Ports & 8x 1GbE RJ45 Ports QSW-M408-4C

The QNAP QSW-M408-4C is a compact Layer 2 Web Managed Switch engineered to help modern small-to-medium businesses, multimedia studios, and tech enthusiasts immediately upgrade to a high-speed network infrastructure without breaking the bank. Featuring four high-speed 10GbE SFP+/RJ45 combo ports alongside eight standard Gigabit RJ45 ports, it delivers an optimal balance of blistering multi-gigabit bandwidth and robust baseline connectivity for servers, NAS units, workstations, and office peripherals.

High-Speed NBASE-T Multi-Gigabit Connectivity

Equipped with NBASE-T technology, the QSW-M408-4C supports five transmission speeds (10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G, and 100M). This allows network managers to achieve significantly faster data transfer rates across existing Cat 5e and Cat 6a structured cabling, eliminating the high cost and disruption of rewiring.

Intuitive Web-Based Layer 2 Management

Managing your network has never been simpler. Powered by the proprietary QNAP Switch System (QSS), the switch features a user-friendly web interface with a visual dashboard, port status monitoring, and setup guides. Comprehensive Layer 2 management tools include:

• VLAN & ACL: Segregate network traffic and apply access control lists to safeguard critical business assets.
• LACP (Link Aggregation): Combine multiple physical ports into a single logical link for enhanced throughput and redundancy.
• RSTP (Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol): Deploy resilient topologies with automatic loop detection and prevention.
• LLDP: Automatically discover and inventory interconnected network devices.

Energy-Efficient & Whisper-Quiet Operation

Designed to integrate seamlessly into desktop and noise-sensitive office environments, the QSW-M408-4C complies with IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet and IEEE 802.3x Flow Control. It dynamically adjusts power consumption based on cable length and connection status, minimizing operational overhead while preventing packet drops.
