Overview:

The QNAP QGD-1602 is the world’s first managed switch series that supports Virtual Machines (VMs). Featuring 2.5GbE and 10GbE SFP+ ports, the QGD-1602 allows you to build a high-speed network infrastructure. With a dual-CPU design, the QGD-1602 uses Intel® Atom® multi-core 2.2GHz processors with two SATA drive bays to support VM and QTS applications. The QGD-1602 not only fulfills IP surveillance, network security and storage expansion applications, but also integrates QuWAN to form a SD-WAN architecture with other QNAP devices across multiple sites, helping to build a resilient and secure IT infrastructure. With 20GbE internal bandwidth capacity and Intel® QuickAssist Technology (Intel® QAT), the QGD-1602 achieves the high-performance transmission required for edge computing virtualization and IPsec VPN, and offers SMBs a cost-optimized and centrally managed LAN deployment solution.

Sturdy hardware with Intel QAT for optimized performance

The QGD-1602 uses Intel® Atom® C3000 series multi-core 2.2GHz processors, has two SATA drive bays, and provides and two M.2 NVMe SSD slots for SSD caching to increase IOPS performance. Two PCIe Gen3 x2 slots allows users to install 10GbE network cards, QM2 dual-port M.2 SSD/10GbE cards, USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) cards, or Wireless Adapters to boost core functionality. The QGD-1602 also supports Intel® QuickAssist Technology (Intel® QAT) to greatly enhance IPsec VPN performance.

Note: Intel® QAT is supported when using QTS 4.4.3 (or later).


The First Switch Series with VM Support

The Guardian supports QNAP’s QTS operating system and is the world’s first switch series that can host virtual machines, containers, and provide other cloud applications - enabling diverse networking and storage solutions. In addition to QuWAN, QVR Pro, HybridMount, and other applications, the included App Center also supports VMs for running many open-source software applications. The Guardian provides SMBs with not only an all-in-one networking solution for IP surveillance, storage expansion, network security, and wireless LAN management, but also a SD-WAN solution for connecting to other QNAP devices at multiple sites. The dual-processor Guardian enables you to independently run the networking management interfaces (QSS - QNAP Switch System) and QTS. The Guardian provides a user-friendly web interface, QuNetSwitch, to help SMBs deploy a flexible and secure IT infrastructure.

Note: QTS and QSS can work independently without interference to ensure continuous operation. For example, when restarting QTS, the QSS connections will not be interrupted; when rebooting QSS, the VMs on QTS will keep running.

Deploy a multi-site VPN with SD-WAN solution


The QGD-1602 and other QNAP solutions now support QuWAN – QNAP’s SD-WAN solution. QuWAN provides full mesh IPsec VPN topology between QNAP devices based in multiple sites to fulfill enterprise video, VoIP, ERP system data, and filing needs. QuWAN adopts software-defined networking to achieve optimum network connectivity, and supports cloud-centric management for deploying a resilient IT Infrastructure.

Faster wired and wireless transmission

The QGD-1602 has eight 2.5GbE ports and eight Gigabit ports for connecting various high-speed devices. Two in-built 10GbE SFP+ ports can serve as uplink ports to the Internet and core networks or simply be connected to routers and LAN Fiber switches. The additional two 5GbE and two Gigabit host management ports can be connected to multiple hosts or LAN devices to improve LAN efficiency. The switching capacity of QGD-1602 is 96Gbps, guaranteeing the full potential of each port. By installing an 802.11ac Wireless Adapter and the WirelessAP Station App, the QGD-1602 can work as an access point for connecting multiple edge devices and offer wireless speeds up to 2533Mbps.
