Network Card QNAP QXP-3X4PES Internal 32000 Mbit/s Wired

The QNAP QXP-3X4PES is an internal wired network card offering up to 32000 Mbit/s data transfer. It is designed to expand high-speed connectivity for QuTS hero or QTS NAS systems and works with QNAP TL PCIe Interface JBOD enclosures. The card enables chaining of multiple JBODs via high-speed cables to scale storage capacity for large archives, backups, surveillance footage, RAW multimedia, big data and virtualization workloads.

Advantages

The QXP-3X4PES provides a high maximum throughput and low-latency wired connectivity suitable for storage expansion and network-intensive tasks. Its PCIe internal form factor allows direct integration into compatible NAS or server platforms, and support for daisy-chained JBODs enables scalable capacity growth without replacing existing systems.

Suitable for

• Expanding NAS storage with QNAP TL PCIe Interface JBOD enclosures
• Archiving and backing up large volumes of surveillance recordings
• Handling RAW multimedia libraries and high-resolution video files
• Big data storage expansion and virtualization environments

Key specifications

• Connectivity: Wired PCIe network card
• Maximum data transfer rate: 32000 Mbit/s
• Intended use: Internal installation in NAS or server supporting QNAP TL PCIe JBOD

How to use

Install the QXP-3X4PES into a free PCIe slot of a compatible QuTS hero or QTS NAS or server following the device manufacturer’s instructions. Connect the card to QNAP TL PCIe Interface JBOD enclosures using the appropriate high-speed cables, and configure storage expansion in the NAS management interface. Multiple JBODs can be connected in a daisy-chain to increase capacity as required.

Recommendations

Use certified high-speed cables and verify firmware/driver compatibility on the host NAS or server before connecting multiple JBODs. Ensure adequate cooling and power supply capacity when scaling to large numbers of drives.
