Compatible with NAS and PC

The QXG-10G2SF-X710 network expansion card supports QNAP NAS, Windows, and Linux devices, allowing you to maximize the performance potential of all your networked devices.

• NAS operating system: QTS 5.1 (and later), QuTS hero h5.1 (and later).
• Windows: Windows 11 22H2, Windows Server 2022® 21H2 (driver required)
• Linux: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (driver required)

Gain up to 20 Gbps bandwidth

By virtually bundling two 10 GbE ports with SMB multichannel or port trunking, you gain larger bandwidth for your QNAP NAS. Let’s see which features are suitable for your usage scenarios:

• SMB Multichannel: Multiply the available bandwidth (20 Gbps) between NAS and directly-connected clients. Suited for personal use.
• Port trunking: Increases file access efficiency for simultaneous data access with multiple members. Recommended for users who deploy network switches in their IT infrastructure.

The QXG-10G2SF-X710 supports SR-IOV, which can allocate bandwidth resources from a physical network card directly to VMs on the NAS. It helps improve network efficiency, ensuring reliable VM applications and reduced CPU overheads.

Build a 10 GbE network environment

Increase your IT performance and productivity by using the QXG-10G2SF-X710 with QNAP’s 10 GbE switches to build budget-friendly high-speed network environments.
