Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. This came without a power supply. Why sell a poe ( POWER over ethernet) without power???

A: because it can be powered from a remote PoE source to provide PoE power to all 4 ports.

Q: 2. What is the difference b/w QNAP QSW-2104-2T and QNAP QSW-2104-2T-A models?

A: The QNAP QSW-2104-2T is the QNAP QSW-2104-2T-A. The full model number of the QNAP QSW-2104-2T 6-Port 10GbE/2.5GbE Unmanaged Switch is QSW-2104-2T-A-US.

Q: 3. Are the SFP ports vendor locked? What compatibilities should I be looking for on a 10Gb SFP+ to RJ45 transceiver?

A: The SFP ports on the QNAP QSW-2104-2S 6-Port 10GbE/2.5GbE Unmanaged Switch are not vendor locked. As long as the SFP+ to RJ45 adapter module supports 10GbE, it will supply full 10GbE speeds to the RJ45.

Q: 4. Can I use one of the 2.5GbE ports as uplink port to my router? I want to keep the 2x10GbE ports for my Mac and nas. Thanks in advance!

A: Technically, yes, you could use one of the QNAP QSW-2104-2T 6-Port 10GbE/2.5GbE Unmanaged Switch's 2.5GbE ports for uplink, but then the switch will only be able to provide a 2.5GbE connection to your network for all other devices. In other words, your 10GbE ports can only provide a 10GbE connection to the router if the uplink port is also 10GbE.

Q: 5. Can this be seen by a network admin on a ubiquiti network?
