Supporting Layer 2 switching and network management via a user-friendly web user interface, the QSW-M408S offers flexible deployment in hybrid high-speed network environments and provides an entry-level network management solution that is usable even by non-IT professionals. With its high performance, user-friendly management features and desktop size, the QSW-M408S allows you to instantly upgrade to a hybrid high-speed network environment at a cost-effective price, while optimizing network bandwidth and ensuring network maintenance security. Flexible deployment with multiple 10G SFP+ fiber and Gigabit ports The QSW-M408S provides four 10GbE SFP+ ports and eight Gigabit ports for connecting various devices and enabling hybrid high-speed networks. With SFP+ interfaces, direct attach copper (DAC) cables can be used for connecting directly to SFP+ devices. You can also use 10G-SFP-T copper transceiver modules to connect 10GBASE-T/NBASE-T devices through RJ45 Category 6, 5 or 5e cabling. The switching capacity of QSW-M408S is 96Gbps, guaranteeing the full potential of each port. QSS: Intuitive Network Management Software with Web GUI The QSW-M408S uses the QNAP Switch System (QSS), which features an easy-to-use Web GUI with value-added functions to simplify network set up and management. Sleek Design Use the at-a-glance major functions, flat control layers and one-click login to simplify set up and management. GUI The visual illustration matches physical ports for greater usability. Value-added Functions With the setting guide, status chart reference, online firmware update, the learning and management costs are greatly reduced. QSS: The human-centered setting guide QNAP Switch System (QSS) provides an overview dashboard, port management and setting guide to help administrators control Layer 2 networks. Optimize Network Performance with bandwidth and packet control The QSW-M408S provides bandwidth and packet control functions (such as LACP, VLAN, QoS, and IGMP Snooping) for boosting network performance through IP grouping and bandwidth management. Powerful security and system functions The QSW-M408S has powerful security and system functions (including ACL, LLDP, RSTP and Flow Control) to help administrators enhance network reliability using access controls, troubleshooting, loop prevention and avoiding packet loss. Improve team productivity with a 5GbE/ 10GbE High-Speed Network From NAS with built-in 10GbE SFP+ and 10GBASE-T ports, or NAS with PCIe slots that support 10GbE/5GbE/2.5GbE network adapters, QNAP has led the industry in 10GbE adoption. Other high-speed network solutions from QNAP include Thunderbolt 3 to 10GbE Network Adapters and USB 3.2 Gen 1 to 5GbE Network Adapters. These can all be used with the QSW-M408S to create a comprehensive high-speed network environment for boosting the performance of photo/video editing, virtualization, large-file data transfers, and other bandwidth-demanding tasks. Desktop size for easy use in offices With a compact and modern design, the QSW-M408S fits perfectly alongside other devices in modern digital offices. Featuring a delicate white or textured surface design, the QSW-M408S helps users to easily identify each port. The flexible DC power connector also assists in universally deploying the QSW-M408S. Being fully plug-and-play, simply connect the QSW-M408S to your devices and it will do the rest.
