The dual-port QXG-100G2SF-CX6 100GbE network expansion card with NVIDIA Mellanox® ConnectX-6 Dx controller supports PCIe 4.0 and provides up to 200Gbps total throughput to overcome performance bottlenecks. Supporting offload functionality including RDMA, RoCE v1/v2, and SR-IOV (1K VFs & 8 PFs), the QXG-100G2SF-CX6 greatly boosts network efficiency and is ideal for I/O-intensive and latency-sensitive virtualization and data centres. The QXG-100G2SF-CX6 is a perfect match for all-flash storage to realize the highest performance potential for ever-demanding IT challenges.

The QXG-25G2SF-CX6 features an NVIDIA Mellanox® ConnectX®-6 Lx SmartNIC controller that supports PCIe Gen4 (backwards compatible with Gen3/ Gen2) and provides up to 25 Gbps transfer speeds (supports 10/25Gbps). By using Port Trunking to combine multiple ports, up to 50GbE can be achieved for accelerating file sharing and intensive data transfer. With SR-IOV support, the QXG-25G2SF-CX6 greatly boosts network efficiency and is ideal for I/O-intensive and latency-sensitive virtualization applications and data centres.


The dual-port QXG-100G2SF-E810 100 GbE network expansion card with Intel® Ethernet Controller E810 supports PCIe 4.0 and provides up to 100Gbps bandwidth to overcome performance bottlenecks. With iWARP/RDMA and SR-IOV support (available soon), the QXG-100G2SF-E810 greatly boosts network efficiency and is ideal for I/O-intensive and latency-sensitive virtualization and data centres. The QXG-100G2SF-E810 is a perfect match for all-flash storage to realize the highest performance potential for ever-demanding IT challenges.

Supporting U.2 NVMe PCIe Gen 4 / SATA SSD storage, the TS-h1290FX is a cost-efficient and powerful all-flash NAS. With a sleek design and near-silent cooling, the TS-h1290FX seamlessly integrates into cosy studio/office surroundings. Equipped with an AMD EPYC™ 16 core 7302P/8 core 7232P processor and built-in 25GbE connectivity, the TS-h1290FX can tackle the heaviest of workloads and enables smooth file transfer, display, and real-time editing of 4K/8K media. The TS-h1290FX also features a ZFS-based operating system to ensure data integrity while supporting inline data deduplication and compression for optimal storage utilization. Price-competitive, high-performance, and easily scalable—the TS-h1290FX is here to streamline your backup, collaboration, and video editing/storage workflows.

The NVMe all-flash TS-h2490FU is designed for providing extreme performance with high cost-efficiency. Featuring 24 U.2 NVMe Gen 3 x4 SSD bays, the TS-h2490FU delivers up to 661K / 245K random read/write IOPS with ultra-low latency. The ZFS-based QuTS hero operating system supports inline data deduplication and compression for reducing I/O and SSD storage consumption, which significantly extends SSD lifespan with a higher price-performance ratio for all-flash storage arrays. Coupled with near-unlimited snapshots, real-time SnapSync, and petabyte-scale storage expansion capabilities, the TS-h2490FU is ideal for I/O-intensive and latency-sensitive applications and eliminates productivity bottlenecks in modern data centres, virtualization, and mission-critical backup/restore tasks.
