Compatible with NAS and PC
The QXG-10G2SF-NXE network expansion card supports QNAP NAS, Windows®, and Linux® devices, allowing you to maximize the potential of all your networked devices.
• NAS operating system: QTS 5.2.1 (and later), QuTS hero h5.2.1 (and later). Check compatibility
• Windows®: Windows 11® 22H2, Windows Server 2022® 21H2 (driver required)
• Linux®: Ubuntu® 24.04 LTS (driver required)
Strengthen your virtualization environment with SR-IOV
The QXG-10G2SF-NXE 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.
Note: SR-IOV is supported by specific QNAP NAS models and should work with SR-IOV compatible adapters. Click here to check supported NAS models.
Supports iSER for Improved VM Performance
The QXG-10G2SF-NXE supports iSER, combining iSCSI and RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access), which can bypass general network drivers, the socket layer, and to directly enter memory buffers of the server and storage. Response time is also reduced to ensure service quality of the NAS.

Gain up to 20Gbps bandwidth
By virtually bundling two 10GbE 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 (20Gbps) 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.
