The QSW-M1208-8C is a Layer 2 Web Managed Switch with four 10GbE SFP+ ports and eight 10GbE SFP+/RJ45 combo ports that enables blazing-fast transfer speeds, simultaneous multi-workstation access to large files (ideal for video editing and multimedia), and empowers bandwidth-demanding tasks like virtualization. Supporting Layer 2 switching and providing a user-friendly entry-level network management solution, the QSW-M1208-8C is an affordable way for businesses and organizations to fully embrace 10GbE connectivity. The QSW-M1208-8C is made in Taiwan (MIT), providing a high-quality and reliable networking solution.

NBASE-T Ethernet

Includes eight 10GbE SFP+/ RJ45 combo ports. Compatible with 10GbE and NBASE-T technologies to support five speeds (10G / 5G / 2.5G / 1G / 100M) using existing cables.

User-friendly management interface

The QNAP Switch System (QSS) is easy to use and provides an overview dashboard, port management and setting guide, making central network management intuitive.

Layer 2 network

Provides Layer 2 management features (such as LACP, VLAN, ACL and LLDP) for IT staff to efficiently control network bandwidth and enhance security.

RSTP protocol

One of the few web-managed switches that supports Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP). Easily and efficiently deploy small/medium-scale networks that support expansion, redundancy, and loop prevention.

Flow Control

Compliant with IEEE802.3x Flow Control in full-duplex mode, the QSW-M1208-8C avoids packet loss from unparalleled bandwidth.

Online OS update

QSS can be updated with just one click, helping IT staff ensure their network security.

Flexible deployment combo ports and 10GbE / NBASE-T

The 12-port QSW-M1208-8C switch includes four SFP+ (fiber) ports, and eight SFP+/RJ45 (copper) combo ports for connecting different interfaces. With RJ45 interfaces, 10GbE is supported using Cat 6a (or above) cables. Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cables can be used with SFP+ ports for connecting to servers inside a rack. The switching capacity of the QSW-M1208-8C is 240 Gbps, guaranteeing the full potential of each port. The QSW-M1208-8C is also compatible with 10GbE and NBASE-T technologies to support up to five speeds (10G / 5G / 2.5G / 1G / 100M). The SFP+/RJ45 (copper) combo ports provide higher transmission speeds with existing cables. Depending on cable types and their lengths, different speeds can be achieved for faster, more efficient data transfer.

Fully embrace High-Speed Networking with QNAP!

From NAS with built-in 10GbE SFP+ and 10GBASE-T ports, or NAS with PCIe slots that support 10GbE 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-M1208-8C 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.
