Simple Installation
Connect the switch to compatible devices and it automatically negotiates the appropriate connection speed and duplex mode.
A cost-effective entry-level switch with three 10GbE SFP+ connections, including one SFP+/RJ45 combo port, plus eight Gigabit Ethernet ports. Its compact fanless design supports quiet, high-speed networking in homes and offices.
The QSW-308-1C is an unmanaged desktop switch designed for building a hybrid 10GbE and Gigabit Ethernet network. It provides two dedicated 10GbE SFP+ ports, one 10GbE SFP+/RJ45 combo port and eight 1GbE RJ45 ports, with a total switching capacity of 76Gbps.
Connect devices with different interfaces and bandwidth requirements.
Port limitation: The 10GbE SFP+ ports are not backward compatible with 1GbE SFP modules. The RJ45 side of the combo port supports 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G and 100M speeds.
Use the copper combo port with a range of Ethernet connection speeds.
The RJ45 interface in the SFP+/RJ45 combo port supports five network speeds: 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G and 100M. Auto-negotiation selects the optimal supported speed and duplex mode when different devices are connected.
Depending on the cable type and cable length, the copper interface can provide higher transmission speeds while allowing existing network cabling to be reused.
To achieve a 10Gb/s connection over a distance of less than 45 metres, the supplied product information states that a Category 6 cable can be used.
No switch configuration is required for normal operation.
Connect the switch to compatible devices and it automatically negotiates the appropriate connection speed and duplex mode.
A fanless, ventilated enclosure supports silent operation while maintaining network performance.
The compact desktop enclosure is designed to blend into home and office network environments.
Combine fibre, direct-attach copper and RJ45 connections.
Direct attach copper cables can be used to connect the SFP+ ports directly to compatible SFP+ devices. A 10G-SFP-T copper transceiver module can also be used to connect 10GBASE-T or NBASE-T devices through Category 6, Category 5 or Category 5e cabling.
The QSW-308-1C can be combined with supported QNAP 10GbE network expansion cards, Thunderbolt 3-to-10GbE network adapters and USB 3.2 Gen 1-to-5GbE network adapters to create a high-speed network for large-file transfers, photo and video editing, virtualization and other bandwidth-demanding tasks.
Connect compatible QNAP NAS systems to a higher-speed network.
QNAP NAS models with built-in 10GbE interfaces, or compatible NAS systems upgraded with a 10GbE network adapter, can be connected to the QSW-308-1C. The higher-bandwidth network can support demanding workflows such as virtualization, databases, high-resolution video editing and file sharing.
Common questions about the QNAP QSW-308-1C.
No. It is an unmanaged plug-and-play switch that does not require configuration for normal operation.
It has 11 ports in total: two dedicated 10GbE SFP+ ports, one 10GbE SFP+/RJ45 combo port and eight 1GbE RJ45 ports.
The RJ45 side of the combo port supports 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G and 100M connection speeds.
No. The supplied product information states that the 10GbE SFP+ ports are not backward compatible with 1GbE SFP modules.
The product provides one combo port, meaning it is represented by a shared SFP+/RJ45 connection rather than two additional independent ports.
No. It uses a fanless, ventilated design for silent operation.
The QSW-308-1C has a switching capacity of 76Gbps and total non-blocking throughput of 38Gbps.
Yes. The supplied datasheet warns that compatibility issues with the Intel X520 Ethernet network adapter may cause the 10GbE ports to switch randomly between port-up and port-down states.
The supplied datasheet lists a two-year warranty.
Compatibility notice: Compatibility issues with the Intel X520 Ethernet network adapter may cause the 10GbE ports to switch randomly between port-up and port-down states.
