QNAP's QGD-1600P-8G is the world's first PoE-managed switch that supports Virtual Machines (VMs). Engineered for modern networks, it blends high-power PoE capabilities with virtualization-ready performance, enabling organizations to deploy IP cameras, wireless access points, and other PoE devices alongside VM-based network services. With a dual-CPU architecture, the QGD-1600P delivers robust Layer 2 switching and advanced management features, making it an ideal solution for SMBs, edge deployments, and small data centers where reliability, scalability, and virtualization come together in a single device.

  • The QGD-1600P-8G combines PoE scalability and VM-aware networking in one box: 4 ports deliver up to 60W each for high-demand devices like PTZ cameras and high-power wireless APs, while 12 PoE ports deliver up to 30W to support dense IP camera deployments, VoIP phones, and edge devices. Two PoE/SFP combo ports provide flexible uplink options, enabling combined PoE Ethernet and fiber connections to integrate seamlessly with existing core networks or data centers.
  • For virtualization and network automation, dual CPUs give the switch the horsepower to run VM-related services directly on the device and to segment traffic with high efficiency. This design supports VM guest networks, virtual routing, and enhanced isolation between VM workloads and physical devices, enabling administrators to create scalable, secure, and isolated network segments without requiring dedicated servers or external virtualization hardware.
  • Layer 2 switching with robust enterprise-grade features ensures reliable performance in crowded networks. Expect comprehensive VLAN support for traffic segmentation, advanced QoS to prioritize latency-sensitive traffic such as video streams and voice, IGMP Snooping for efficient multicast handling, and Link Aggregation to boost bandwidth and provide redundancy between switch stacks or between the switch and a core router. These capabilities help ensure smooth operation of surveillance systems, classrooms, and office environments with multiple PoE devices.
  • Management and deployment are streamlined through a polished web-based interface, CLI, and mobile-friendly dashboards. Network administrators can monitor PoE budgets in real time, schedule power to reduce energy consumption, implement security features such as port security and ACLs, and easily provision new IP cameras or APs in minutes—centralizing control for scalable, future-ready networks across multiple sites.
  • Designed for versatile environments, the QGD-1600P-8G excels in surveillance deployments, office networks, and edge computing. Its PoE capabilities reduce the need for separate power outlets and simplify cabling, while VM support opens opportunities for virtualization-based services at the network edge. This makes it a future-ready solution that grows with your business, delivering reliable performance, centralized management, and scalable PoE power for a growing ecosystem of devices and workloads.

These features deliver predictable performance, robust security, and network resilience in complex deployments while supporting virtualization-oriented traffic isolation.
  • Management and compatibility: Web-based GUI, CLI, SNMP, and integration with QNAP’s management ecosystem. Centralized monitoring, configuration, and automation across multiple devices is supported, making it simpler to scale networks and maintain consistency across sites.
  • Reliability and form factor: Engineered for continuous operation in demanding environments, with efficient cooling and solid hardware design to sustain PoE loads and high-traffic conditions typical in modern offices, campuses, and retail networks.

How to Install QNAP QGD-1600P-8G Ethernet Switch

  • Position the switch in a rack or on a sturdy shelf with adequate ventilation. Ensure the area is free from obstructions to allow airflow and prevent overheating when PoE devices are in use.
  • Connect the switch to your power source, and if you are integrating with an existing core network, connect the uplink using one of the two PoE/SFP combo ports. If you are using fiber, install the appropriate SFP module and fiber cabling to reach your core switch or router.
  • Power on the switch and access the management interface through the discovered IP address or via your network management tools. Use the default credentials to start the setup wizard, then change the admin password to secure access.
  • Configure basic network settings including VLANs to segment traffic, QoS to prioritize critical streams, and PoE scheduling to optimize energy usage. If you plan to run VM services or VM-related networking, enable VM-aware features and allocate resources accordingly within the management interface.
  • Attach PoE-enabled devices—IP cameras, wireless APs, VoIP phones, etc.—to the appropriate PoE ports. Verify that each device receives power and that traffic is flowing correctly. Save the configuration and monitor port status and PoE consumption from the dashboard to maintain a stable, scalable deployment.

budget friendly for dogs who lose balls in the creek
Color: Multi Squeaker Balls, Size: Medium, Style: 4-Pack
Not great quality, but works for our needs. I have a ball crazy lab. She loves for me to throw a ball using the Chuck-it Ball Launcher. We do this in our wide back yard that butts up to a creek. At some point during her run and fetch, she will take a quick detour right into the creek. She nearly always still has the ball, but once in awhile it is lost. Not wanting to chance it on more pricy (and more durable) balls, I get these or something like these. They dont cost much, yet they do the job. I' not upset if one gets sacrificed to the creek waters and mud. Since the balls end up getting wet often, they will kinda fall apart over time (chasing, kicking, throwing, retrieving, dog saliva etc). But she doesn't chew on them. Glad she doesnt as tennis balls arent good on teeth, but even if it was ok, the balls probably would be breached easily. SO get these if you are like me and want a ball that does the job but arent a total financial loss if get lost or destroyed. For indoor play we and by we I mean our 3 dogs demand that we use the rubbery max glow chuck-it ball. And will ignore this style ball. Yes, I am well trained. lol

These balls SUCK! External squeakers, minimal bounce and blue that is too dark.
Color: Multi Squeaker Balls, Size: X-Small, Style: 8-Pack
We have 2 little dogs in our home - a 1.5 year old Pomsky, and a 9 year old Pekingese. My Peke has shown no interest in tennis balls for years, until today! Imagine my excitement! Until she promptly destroyed the first squeaker on one of the blue balls. When I removed it, she began peeling the logos off the ball, and then started tearing the fuzz off! My dog has never destroyed any toy in her life, so this was shocking! Then the Pomsky decided that she wanted to play fetch with the new balls - she has Golden Retriever energy - and decided to destroy a squeaker in the midst of playing! She also wasn't nearly as interested in these tennis balls as her other tennis balls that she inherited from my Peke. 1. STUPID design, with the squeakers sticking out of the balls (the don't sit flush), so they are asking to get chewed or pulled out by any dog, even elderly 10 lb dogs! And a 9 lb young adult. 2. They are difficult to squeak compared to their Kong tennis balls, hence why the Pomsky wasn't interested for long. 3. They don't bounce as much as the Kong tennis balls, either, which made them less than exciting for the athletic and agile Pomsky. Meh. We wanted to get the smallest tennis balls we could get (1.5 inch) because neither dog will play with the 2 inch or bigger ones, but we also wanted to get colors they could easily see! The Pomsky clearly prefers the yellow balls to any other color (red, orange, green, darker blue, watermelon design), so we wanted to get like a bright blue or turquoise couple of balls to appeal to them! Well, my senior Peke liked the blue ones the most, but also liked the red and orange. Pomsky didn't like the blue ones. I think they're too dark of a blue to be easily seen in our home afternoons and evenings in the winter. We love Outward Hound toys in our house, but these were an expensive FLOP. They are the right size, but WHY did they put the squeakers so visible and appealing to dogs? I've never seen the squeaker in the Kong tennis balls. My advice is that Kong seems to make the best tennis balls for toy breeds, in the 1.5" size. Outward Hound dropped the ball here... no pun intended. The blue is darker than the photos depict (may be better in natural sunlight outdoors), the squeakers are external, and they barely bounce at all. Our next step will be to get the pressurized bright blue tennis balls from another brand, in hopes that the bounce and visibility will outweigh the lack of squeakiness. If those don't work, I guess we'll stick to the classic neon yellow Kong tennis balls! At my local Target, they only have multicolor packs of them, and the dark blue, red and green get completely ignored. *Dogs can only see shades of blues, yellows and black, grey and white. While some dogs may not seem to care about color, our Pomsky clearly does. :(

Not super durable but good squeak while they work
Color: Multi Squeaker Balls, Size: Large, Style: 4-Pack
My dog loves these but they break very quickly. I've got an older set that was incredibly durable, but these all stopped squeaking/got holes after the first or second play session
