15. Independent QTS Host power button - When shutting down the QTS via the independent QTS Host power button, the switch can still offer data transmission in LAN network and ensure uninterrupted operation without being affected by QTS status

The QGD-1600P works seamlessly with QVR Pro, QNAP’s new surveillance software service, to help build the most cost-effective one-stop IP surveillance system. By integrating PoE, NVR, and NAS storage functions, the QGD-1600P significantly simplifies the surveillance network infrastructure while satisfying the requirements for surveillance deployment, central management, video recording and computing. The QGD-1600P offers 4-port 60-watt and 12-port 30-watt Gigabit PoE to different brands of high-power IP Cameras with the ONVIF standard. Through QVR Pro Surveillance Suite, IT administrators can easily manage cameras, record and play back videos, failover recording tasks, and monitor mobile apps. The QGD-1600P is equipped with an HDMI output to connect an external monitor for real-time surveillance video monitoring.

The QGD-1600P can be easily transformed into a security router with a firewall via virtual router and virtual firewall software by installing MikroTik RouterOS and OpenWrt. You can flexibly configure Layer 3 routing functions and create site-to-site VPN tunnels between headquarters and branch offices while securing enterprise network data transmissions. The virtual firewall software pfSense helps enterprises separate or protect local networks and apply multiple security policies.

The QGD-1600P offers 4-port 60-watt and 12-port 30-watt Gigabit PoE for various types of high-power PoE wireless APs. Adopting PoE and VM technology to support PoE wireless APs and the Ubiquiti wireless LAN management software UniFi, the QGD-1600P becomes a hardware-based and software-based wireless AP controller. The QGD-1600P enables not only data transmission and PoE management over wireless APs, but also central management over wired and wireless networking devices in offices, hotels, retail stores, or other small-to-medium-sized networks, greatly promoting the effectiveness of network management and reducing costs.

Aside from QNAP Switch System (QSS), the QGD-1600P also offers QuNetSwitch (via QTS), a user-friendly web interface networking management software application to help IT administrators efficiently control Layer 2 management and PoE networks. Additionally, the overview dashboard and graphical statistics analysis area displays all the information about the switch and PDs at a glance, making centralised management of over--powered devices intuitive and easy for administrators.
