Two 10GbE ports for flexible wired network deployment

With two 10GbE ports and two Gigabit ports for WAN/LAN configurations, the QHora-301W offers following flexible usage scenarios for optimized network deployment.

• High-speed LAN

  Build a high-speed 10GbE Intranet by connecting two 10GbE ports to 10GbE devices in a LAN and one Gigabit port to WAN to accelerate file sharing or communication between workstations.

• Streamlined Cross-site File Transfer

  Build a high-speed 10GbE inter-office VPN by connecting one 10GbE port to one 10GbE device in a LAN, and one 10GbE port to WAN with another QHora-301W at a remote site for streamlined cross-site file backup, synchronization and sharing.

• Flexible Routing

  Supports Policy-based Routing and Static Routes, enabling automatic traffic steering based on source IP, application, or device. You can also manually define specific routes to further fine-tune traffic flows. This flexibility allows for precise traffic distribution, congestion avoidance, and optimized network performance and stability—whether through automation or manual control.

• Reliable Connectivity to Minimize Business Risk

  Supports dual WAN aggregation, failover, and load balancing, enabling multiple network connections to back each other up and distribute traffic intelligently. In the event of a primary link failure, the system can instantly switch to a backup, ensuring uninterrupted operation of critical services.

Secure access to your NAS

To secure your remote access and prevent potential attacks, it is highly recommended to connect the QHora-301W in front of your NAS device. The NAT (Network Address Translation) enables private network security by hiding the actual IP address used in the private network from users outside the firewall.
