QNAP QSW-M2106PR-2S2T 10-Port 2.5GbE and 10GbE PoE++ Managed Switch

High-Power PoE in a Smaller Rack Footprint Give demanding network devices the power and bandwidth they need without using a full-width switch chassis. The QNAP QSW-M2106PR-2S2T brings eight 90W-capable PoE++ ports, two SFP+ connections and a shared 310W power budget into a half-width managed switch for access, surveillance and other business deployments. Highlights Power for Demanding Endpoints Six 2.5GbE and two 10GbE RJ45 ports each support up to 90W PoE++. The shared PoE output budget is 310W, allowing power to be planned across eight devices. Ten Useful Data Connections Two additional SFP+ ports support 10GbE or 1GbE links. 110Gbps switching capacity supports a mixed multi-gigabit network. Compact and Manageable QSS provides Layer 2 and PoE administration through a browser. Half-width rackmount design supports a tidy installation. Key Features One Powered Edge for Different Device Classes All eight RJ45 data ports support the 90W PoE++ class, with six operating at up to 2.5GbE and two at up to 10GbE. This gives more freedom to connect compatible high-power access points, cameras, signage and other endpoints. The available 310W is shared, so the final device mix needs a proper power calculation. Multi-Gigabit Copper with SFP+ Flexibility The two 10GbE RJ45 ports support 10GbE, 5GbE, 2.5GbE, Gigabit and 100Mbps links. Two SFP+ connections support suitable 10GbE or 1GbE equipment, giving additional choices for an uplink or local high-speed connection. Select compatible optics or DAC cables for SFP+ use. Control the Network and Its Power QSS brings port information and power consumption into one web administration environment. PoE settings help manage connected devices centrally, while VLAN, QoS, LACP and ACL controls support traffic organisation. RSTP and LLDP provide further tools for a planned topology and easier device identification. Fit More Switching into the Rack The half-width enclosure uses controlled fans and front-panel system indicators. Two compatible half-width switches can share 1U when installed with the optional SP-EAR-QSW2FOR1-01 kit. The standard package includes the rackmount kit for its normal installation, power cord and quick installation guide. Choose the Link for the Access Point The switch can serve compatible Wi-Fi 6, Wi-Fi 6E or Wi-Fi 7 access points through their wired Ethernet interface and required PoE class. It does not generate Wi-Fi itself. Match the access point’s wired uplink and maximum input requirements to the chosen port, then allow headroom within the total output budget. Summary The QSW-M2106PR-2S2T suits installations needing a compact, managed PoE edge with higher per-port power and a mix of 2.5GbE, 10GbE copper and SFP+ links. It offers a practical foundation for suitable wireless, surveillance and signage devices when the full deployment stays within its shared power budget. Do all eight RJ45 ports support 90W PoE++?ExpandCollapse Yes. The six 2.5GbE and two 10GbE RJ45 data ports each support up to 90W PoE++ at the switch port. Their combined allocation must remain within the shared 310W PoE budget. Can eight devices each draw 90W at once?ExpandCollapse No. Eight times 90W exceeds the total budget. Add each device’s power requirement and account for the power negotiation and installation conditions before selecting the final device mix. How many network ports does it have?ExpandCollapse Ten data ports: six 2.5GbE RJ45, two 10GbE RJ45 and two SFP+ connections. Only the eight RJ45 data ports provide PoE output; the SFP+ connections are for data. Can it power a Wi-Fi 7 access point?ExpandCollapse It can power a compatible access point when the selected port supports its Ethernet speed and IEEE PoE requirements, and sufficient total power is available. Wi-Fi generation alone does not determine PoE compatibility or guarantee a 10GbE uplink. Can two units fit in one rack unit?ExpandCollapse Two compatible half-width switches can share 1U using the optional SP-EAR-QSW2FOR1-01 kit. Check the intended pair and mounting arrangement; that joining kit is separate from the standard included rackmount kit. Are SFP+ modules and network cables included?ExpandCollapse They are not listed in the standard package. The switch, power cord, rackmount kit and quick installation guide are included. Select compatible modules, fibre leads, DAC cables and copper cabling for the required links. Magbasa pa
