Qnap QGD-3014-16PT 4-Bay and 16 PoE RJ45 Ports Desktop PoE Switch for IP Surveillance and Remote Backup With Celeron Quad-Core Processor

Qnap Systems, Inc. announced the desktop smart edge PoE Switch QGD-3014-16PT.

With 16 30W Gb PoE ports, 2 2.5GbE host management ports, Celeron J4125 quad-core 2.0GHz processor, and 4 3.5-inch SATA drive bays, it supports QVR Pro, HBS 3 and QuWAN SD-WAN to integrate surveillance deployment, video storage computing, and multi-site remote management to offer SMBs IP surveillance infrastructure and remote backup solutions.

“Expanding multi-site surveillance networks can be costly and involve large amounts of equipment with low transmission efficiency between multiple remote devices – not to mention the complexities involved in deployment and management.” said Daniel Hsieh, product manager, “The QGD-3014-16PT desktop Smart Edge PoE Switch integrates PoE, surveillance capabilities, and data backup management to simplify these requirements and increase the transmission and backup efficiency of surveillance videos.”

The QGD-3014-16PT is compliant with the IEEE 802.3at PoE+ standard and features 16 30W Gb PoE ports, providing the ability to supply up to 140W total power to PoE bullet cameras, fisheye cameras, 4K PTZ cameras and Speed Dome cameras with the ONVIF standard or high-power devices such as IP phones, LED lights, and digital signage.

An additional two Gigabit SFP/RJ45 combo ports and two 2.5GbE host management ports serve as uplink ports to core networks, data centers, or dedicated bandwidth for virtualization applications. With its flexible and secure management interfaces (QSS switch or QuNetSwitch), administrators can centrally manage powered devices with Layer 2 management features and the PoE management functions (including scheduling, power supply prioritization, and power enabling/disabling).

Supporting QVR Pro surveillance applications, HBS 3 remote backup and QuWAN SD-WAN, the QGD-3014-16PT provides users with a cost-optimized all-in-one smart surveillance infrastructure solution. QVR Pro can set up a dedicated, independent storage space for surveillance data on the QGD-3014-16PT and leverage the advantages of scalable storage (including 4 SATA drive bays and flexible storage expansion).

Administrators can manage cameras, allocate storage space, play recordings, failover, and monitor live camera feeds remotely. HBS 3 consolidates backup, restoration and synchronization functions (via RTRR, Rsync, FTP, CIFS/SMB protocol) for administrators to easily transfer data from one QGD-3014-16PT to another QGD-3014-16PT, Qnap NAS, remote server, or cloud storage. The QGD-3014-16PT and other company’s NAS, QGD switches support QuWAN (Qnap’s SD-WAN solution) which provides full mesh IPsec VPN topology between multi-site QNAP devices to fulfill enterprise surveillance video, system transmission and backup needs.

The QGD-3014-16PT combines the functions of a PoE switch, NVR, NAS and router, and provides HDMI 2.0 output for direct playback of live feeds up to 4K (3,840×2,160) 60Hz. By consolidating multi-device functionality into a near-silent and stylish form factor, it satisfies requirements and simplifies the deployment of smart surveillance solutions.
