The TL-R1620Sep-RP SAS 12Gb/s storage expansion enclosure is designed for expanding the storage space of your QTS or QuTS hero NAS. Up to sixteen expansion enclosures can be daisy-chained via high-speed mini SAS HD cables to support up to 4.6PB raw capacity, ideal for archiving/backing up virtualization applications, surveillance recordings, large data, or multimedia. Featuring Broadcom SAS DataBolt bandwidth optimization technology, the TL-R1620Sep-RP consolidates 6Gb/s infrastructure into 12Gb/s. With four mini SAS HD SFF-8644 Wide Ports, the TL-R1620Sep-RP delivers up to 192Gbps transfer speed when connected to a single host. When connected to a QTS/QuTS hero NAS that supports multipath routing, the TL-R1620Sep-RP can achieve smoother data transmission and continuous system operation.
Note:
1. The QNAP NAS requires QTS 4.5.1 / QuTS hero h4.5.1 (or later) with SAS ports or with a QXP PCIe SAS storage expansion card installed.
2. Due to global chip shortages, this product is of limited availability.
Features:
- Expand the storage space of a QTS/QuTS hero NAS, supports up to 4.6PB raw capacity by daisy-chaining up to 16 expansion enclosures.
- Combine two 6Gb/s connections into one 12 Gb/s data stream to achieve faster speed with existing 6Gb/s infrastructure.
- Ensure smooth data transmission and continuous operation by using the TL-R1620Sep-RP with a NAS that supports multipath routing.
- Manage the storage space and settings of the TL-R1620Sep-RP with Storage & Snapshot Manager on the host NAS.
- Conserve network bandwidth and performance by using the TL-R1620Sep-RP to transfer huge files from one device to another.
- With a short-depth design, the TL-R1620Sep-RP is suitable for universal deployment.
