By consolidating the functions of multiple devices in a near-silent and stylish form factor, the QGD-3014-16PT satisfies the requirements for smart retail surveillance environments.

Intelligent PoE Management for High-Power IP Cameras
Compliant with the IEEE 802.3at PoE+ standards, the QGD-3014-16PT has sixteen ports with 30-watt Gigabit PoE capabilities. The QGD-3014-16PT can supply a total power budget of 140 watts to meet the demands of bullet cameras, fisheye cameras, 4K PTZ cameras and Speed Dome cameras compliant with the ONVIF® standard; or high-power devices such as 4K PTZ camera, IP phones, LED lights, and digital signage. The QGD-3014-16PT supports intelligent PoE management functions, including scheduling, power supply prioritization, and power enabling/disabling. You can obtain real-time network connection status and power consumption information of PDs and configure PDs simultaneously to promote an energy-saving PoE network.

A Total Smart IP Surveillance System with QVR Pro
QVR Pro allows you to arrange a dedicated, independent storage space for surveillance data on the QGD-3014-16PT and leverage the advantages of scalable storage including four drive bays space and flexible storage expansion. With camera management, storage space allocation, playback, failover, and remote live viewing, QVR Pro helps you deploy a comprehensive smart IP surveillance system.

Integrated HBS 3 Remote Backup Solution for Surveillance Data
HBS 3 consolidates backup, restoration and synchronization functions (via RTRR, Rsync, FTP, CIFS/SMB protocol) for easily transferring data from the QGD-3014-16PT to a remote QGD-3014-16PT, QNAP NAS, remote server, or cloud storage.

Deploy a Multi-site VPN with SD-WAN Solution
QuWAN SD-WAN provides full mesh IPsec VPN topology between the QGD Switches and local/remote QNAP devices to fulfill enterprise surveillance video, system data transmission, and filing needs. QuWAN optimizes the network service by using bandwidth aggregation, QoS, and failover, providing a stable surveillance working environment. QuWAN also adopts software defined networking to achieve optimum surveillance network connectivity and supports cloud-centric management over multiple NAS for deploying a resilient IP surveillance infrastructure.

The First PoE Switch Series with VM Support
The QGD-3014-16PT supports QNAP’s QTS operating system and is the world’s first PoE switch series that supports hosting virtual machines, containers, and other cloud applications – enabling diverse networking and storage solutions. In addition to QuWAN, QVR Pro, HybridMount, and other applications. The QGD-3014-16PT not only provides an all-in-one networking solution for IP surveillance, storage expansion, network security, and wireless LAN management, but also a SD-WAN solution for connecting to other QNAP devices in multiple sites. The QGD-3014-16PT adopts a dual-processor structure, enabling independent operation of the networking management interfaces (QSS – QNAP Switch System) and QTS. By using the Network Virtual Switch, the data from QTS and QSS can be transferred by Intranet, accelerating computing between end devices and hosts. In addition, the QGD-3014-16PT provides a user-friendly web interface, QuNetSwitch, to help users deploy flexible and secure IT infrastructure.

QuNetSwitch: User-Friendly Layer 2 Management Software
The QGD-3014-16PT provides complete functions of Layer 2 management (for example: VLAN, LACP, and LLDP). These can divide network IP traffic into several groups, providing more efficient network management. The QGD-3014-16PT provides powerful security features, including IGMP Snooping, Static MAC, QoS, and WoL. There is also an overview dashboard and graphical statistics analysis that displays all the information about the switch and PDs at a glance, simplifying the management of powered devices.
