Flexible deployment with multiple 1G SFP+ fiber and Gigabit ports
The QSW-M48S provides four 1GbE 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 1G-SFP-T copper transceiver modules to connect 1GBASE-T/NBASE-T devices through RJ45 Category 6, 5 or 5e cabling. The switching capacity of QSW-M48S is 96Gbps, guaranteeing the full potential of each port.

QSS: Intuitive Network Management Software with Web GUI
The QSW-M48S 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-M48S 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-M48S 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/ 1GbE High-Speed Network
From NAS with built-in 1GbE SFP+ and 1GBASE-T ports, or NAS with PCIe slots that support 1GbE/5GbE/2.5GbE network adapters, QNAP has led the industry in 1GbE adoption. Other high-speed network solutions from QNAP include Thunderbolt 3 to 1GbE Network Adapters and USB 3.2 Gen 1 to 5GbE Network Adapters. These can all be used with the QSW-M48S 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-M48S fits perfectly alongside other devices in modern digital offices. Featuring a delicate white or textured surface design, the QSW-M48S helps users to easily identify each port. The flexible DC power connector also assists in universally deploying the QSW-M48S. Being fully plug-and-play, simply connect the QSW-M48S to your devices and it will do the rest.
