Upgrade your NAS to 2.5 Gb E networks The TS-453D comes with two 2.5 Gb E RJ45 LAN ports that allow you to use existing CAT5e cables to upgrade network speeds from 1 Gigabit to 2.5 Gigabit. The dual 2.5 Gb E ports also support Port Trunking for up to 5 Gbps! By using QNAP’s N-BASET/ Multi-Gig USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.2 Gen 1 to 5 Gb E adapter (Model name QNA-UC5G1T) or 5 Gb E PCIe expansion card (Model name QXG-5G1T-111C), your laptop or desktop computer can easily connect to 2.5 Gb E networks with the TS-453D to benefit from higher network speeds. Transform your network with a wallet-friendly 2.5 Gb E switch Upgrading your network shouldn’t break the bank, & 2.5 Gb E connectivity provides immediately noticeable improvements compared to standard 1 Gb E. The QSW-1105-5T is an unmanaged switch with five 2.5 Gb E ports (backwards compatible with 1G/100M) & supports CAT5e cables to connect multiple computers & NAS. The QSW-1105-5T is energy-saving, low-noise, plug-&-use, & supports loop detection & blocking to provide a simple & effective high-speed network environment. Quad-core 2.0 GHz (burst up to 2.7 GHz) with up to 8 GB memory The TS-453D is powered by an Intel Celeron J4125 quad-core 2.0 GHz processor (bursts up to 2.7 GHz), features up to 8 GB DDR4 memory, & supports SATA 6 Gb/s drives. The support of Intel AES-NI encryption engine boosts encryption performance while also maintaining the security of your NAS data. You can flexibly install SSDs for cache acceleration to maximize network & storage performance for data-intensive applications. Increase HBS backup efficiency with 2.5 Gb E connectivity Hybrid Backup Sync (HBS) consolidates backup, restoration & synchronization functions (using RTRR, Rsync, FTP, CIFS/SMB) for easily transferring data in the TS-453D to local, remote & cloud storage spaces (including Microsoft One Drive, Google Drive, Dropbox, & more) as a comprehensive data storage & disaster recovery plan. Supporting Qu Dedup technology that eliminates duplicated data at the source, HBS reduces backup data size & speeds up future backup tasks. This is also beneficial for accelerating multi-version backups for greater protection against data loss. Abundant I/O capability with PCIe expansion The TS-453D features one PCIe 2.0 slot that allows for various expansion cards for expanding application potential. SSD caching & auto-tiering enable 24/7 optimized storage efficiency While SSD prices continue to fall, & SSD capacity & performance continue to increase, organizations can easily take advantage of SSD strengths. The TS-453D supports numerous SSD-aware features that significantly maximize NAS performance with high cost-effectiveness. Ultimate visual experience with 4K HDMI display & real-time video transcoding The TS-453D has an HDMI 2.0 port that supports 4K (4096 x 2160) 60 Hz output, allowing you to directly view multimedia content saved on the NAS on a bigger screen. The support of high-quality 4K video transcoding enables the NAS to convert videos to universal file formats that can be smoothly played on multiple devices. The TS-453D also can stream videos through DLNA, Chromecast, & more to satisfy versatile multimedia application needs. Build a Plex Media Server By installing Plex Media Server from App Center, setting up the Plex Media Server on your NAS is only a few minutes away. You can stream media files stored on the TS-453D to mobiles & media streaming devices (including DLNA, Roku, Amazon Fire TV & Google Chromecast). Move business data to the cloud flexibly & economically The TS-453D perfectly integrates NAS with mainstream cloud services. By deploying cloud storage gateways & enabling local caching on the NAS, you can seamlessly use the cloud for storage, backup, & data recovery with low-latency access, providing an innovative hybrid cloud experience. All-in-one server to host virtual machines & containers Regardless of your virtualization needs, you can count on Virtualization Station & Container Station for complete virtualization support. You can use Network & Virtual Switch to allocate adequate physical network resources to virtual machines, containers, & the NAS to simplify network deployment. Optimized collaboration with seamless file sharing & sync The TS-453D centrally stores data & files, & supports SMB/CIFS, AFP & NFS protocols for file sharing across Windows, Mac, & Linux/UNIX networks. Coupled with the Qsync utility, any file uploaded to the TS-453D will be made available for all linked devices (such as computers, laptops & mobiles). You can sync shared folders & team folders for group file sharing to enhance the flexibility of team projects & collaboration. With the my QNAPcloud service, you can easily & securely connect to the TS-453D via the Internet for accessing, managing, & sharing NAS files. The Windows AD & LDAP services enable system administrators to configure user permissions by using an existing Windows AD server, LDAP server, or the TS-453D’s built-in LDAP service. Secure your premises with integrated surveillance solutions QVR Pro means that you can arrange a dedicated, independent storage space for surveillance data on the TS-453D & leverage the advantages of scalable NAS storage. It greatly simplifies camera management, storage space allocation, camera live view, & playback. Supporting over 5, 000 IP cameras (including all standard fisheye cameras available on the market), QVR Pro provides 8 license-free channels for surveillance monitoring & the optional QVR Pro Camera Channel Extension License for more extensive security deployment. You can also use QVR Pro Client’s mobile app to monitor anytime, or use a USB (Universal Serial Bus) webcam as an ONVIF network camera with the QUSBCam 2 app.
