10GbE/2.5GbE for Ultra-high-speed Wi-Fi Applications

From Wi-Fi 6 to Wi-Fi 6E and even the Wi-Fi 7, ultra-high-speed and high-power APs and Routers are driving up access point uplink requirements. Supporting multiple 10GbE/2.5GbE ports, the QSW-M2106PR-2S2T breaks through the bandwidth limitations of cabled and wireless networks to enhance your storage and access experience. With two 10GbE SFP+ ports for backbone network uplinking capability, the QSW-M2106PR-2S2T provides an ultra-high-speed Wi-Fi 6 wireless network infrastructure solution for small-to-medium businesses, hotels, and stores.

High PoE Capability– up to Eight-port 90W PoE++ and 310 Total Power Budget

The QSW-M2106PR-2S2T is compliant with the IEEE 802.3bt PoE++ standard and offers 2-port 10GbE and 6-port 2.5GbE 90-watt PoE++ capabilities. The QSW-M2106PR-2S2T can supply a total power budget of 310 watts to meet the demands of many high-power devices (PDs) (such as 4K IP cameras, wireless APs, IP phones, LED lights, and digital signage).

Half-width design, two models in 1U

With a half-width rackmount design, a QSW-M2106PR-2S2T can be installed in a 1U rack space with another half-width rackmount switch (such as QSW-M2106R-2S2T) for efficient physical space utilization and tidy cabling.

Note: The optional SP-EAR-QSW2FOR1-01 rackmount kit is required if two half-width rackmount switches are installed.

Flexible deployment with multiple 10G SFP+ fiber and Multi-Gigabit ports

The QSW-M2106PR-2S2T provides two 10GbE SFP+ ports, two 10GbE RJ45 ports and six 2.5 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 RJ45 ports to connect 10GBASE-T/NBASE-T™ devices through RJ45 Category 6a (or better) cabling. The switching capacity of the QSW-M2106PR-2S2T is 110Gbps, guaranteeing the full potential of each port.

Note 1: 10GbE SFP+ ports are backward compatible with 1GbE SFP; the 10GbE RJ45 (copper) ports support up to five speeds (10G / 5G / 2.5G / 1G / 100M).
Note 2: If the distance between the switch and the device is less than 45 meters (148 feet), a Cat 6 cable can be used to achieve 10Gb/s speeds.

Dependable performance with effective heat dissipation

With a compact metal body, the QSW-M2106PR-2S2T provides stable and reliable operations under full load. The front-panel LEDs also assist in viewing the current system status.

Optimize network performance with bandwidth and packet control

The QSW-M2106PR-2S2T provides bandwidth and packet control functions (such as LACP, VLAN, QoS, and IGMP Snooping) to boost network performance through IP grouping and bandwidth management.

  • LACP

    Link Aggregation combines multiple network connections to increase throughput and protect against connection failure.

  • VLAN

    Virtual Networks allows groups of devices from different networks to be combined into a single network.

  • QoS

    QoS (Quality of Service) prioritizes bandwidth usage to optimize network resource allocation.

  • IGMP Snooping

    IGMP snooping assists in minimizing bandwidth loss and preventing network information leakage.

Powerful security and system functions

The QSW-M2106PR-2S2T 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.

  • ACL

    Filters packets based on rules to offer firewall-like security protection.

  • LLDP

    Allows devices to advertise device information to directly-connected peers/neighbors to simplify troubleshooting processes.

  • RSTP

    Ensures loop-free topology for Ethernet networks by blocking or forwarding traffic.

  • Flow Control

    Balances traffic between a sender and a receiver to avoid network congestion.

Intelligent PoE functions for efficient, centralized PD management

The QSW-M2106PR-2S2T supports intelligent PoE management functions, including scheduling, power supply prioritization, and enabling/disabling power via QSS. You can obtain real-time network connection status and power consumption information of Powered Devices (PD) and configure PDs simultaneously to promote an energy-saving PoE network.
