QNAP® Systems, a leading computing, networking, and storage solution innovator, announced the launch of the QSW-M7230-2X4F24T, a new L3 Lite managed 100GbE switch designed for enterprise network upgrades, high-performance storage environments, large-scale media production, virtualization, and AI-driven workloads. 


The new switch enables organizations to build a scalable 100GbE core network while maintaining cost efficiency and protecting existing infrastructure investments.


As data-intensive applications continue to accelerate—from AI computing and virtualization to collaborative media workflows—enterprises are increasingly challenged to evolve beyond 10GbE networks without incurring disruptive, large-scale replacements. The QSW-M7230-2X4F24T addresses this transition by providing a flexible, multi-speed architecture that allows enterprises to introduce higher-speed connectivity where it matters most, while expanding the core network over time.


Featuring 100GbE backbones, 25GbE server uplinks, and 24-port 10GbE access, the QSW-M7230-2X4F24T offers seamless multi-speed integration. It allows enterprises to deploy high-performance 25GbE/100GbE where needed while preserving existing 10GbE assets, effectively minimizing upgrade complexity and maximizing infrastructure value.


Optimized for AI and high-performance storage, the QSW-M7230-2X4F24T offers 10G/25G/100G multi-speed links with a 1080Gbps capacity, supporting PFC…
