PRODUCT DETAILS:

Upgrade your home network to 2.5GbEWi-Fi 6 and 5G are becoming the new normal for networking, and there’s no reason why your home wired network shouldn’t also get a boost. The TS-262 comes with single 2.5GbE RJ45 LAN port which supports existing CAT5e cables. If your computers don’t have 2.5GbE ports, you can use QNAP’s USB 3.2 Gen 1 to 5GbE adapter (model name QNA-UC5G1T) to take advantage of the huge speed increase that 2.5GbE provides over standard Gigabit Ethernet. QNAP also provide affordable 2.5GbE switches and other adapters for you to take full advantage of the TS-262’s 2.5GbE connectivity..Intel dual-core processor burst up to 2.9 GHzThe TS-262 is powered by an Intel® Celeron® N4505 dual-core processor (burst up to 2.9 GHz), and supports SATA 6 Gb/s drives. The Intel® AES-NI encryption engine boosts encryption performance while also maintaining the security of your NAS data. You can flexibly install NVMe SSDs in the M.2 PCIe slots for cache acceleration to maximize network and storage performance for data-intensive applications or enable Qtier for auto-tiered storage for higher storage efficiency.Accelerate AI–powered image recognition and caching with TPU and PCIe expansionThe TS-262 has two M.2 PCIe Gen3 slots, enabling SSD caching or SSD storage pools for improved performance, or Edge TPU for AI image recognition.Install M.2 NVMe SSDs for cache acceleration or efficient tiered storageThe TS-262 supports SSD caching and features two M.2 slots that support M.2 PCIe NVMe SSDs1 with 2280 form factors (sold separately) for boosting overall NAS performance. Qtier™ technology can also be used to empower the TS-262 with auto tiering that helps continuously optimize storage efficiency across all installed storage devices.Accelerate AI–powered image recognition with TPUBy leveraging a Google Edge TPU to QNAP AI Core (the AI-powered engine for image recognition), the TS-262 can perform high-speed face and object recognition. Google Edge TPU enables QuMagie to quickly process thousands of photos with high-speed AI Image recognition and classification, and QVR Face to analyze real-time video for instant facial recognition.SSD caching and auto-tiering enable 24/7 optimized storage efficiencyWhile SSD prices continue to fall, and SSD capacity and performance continue to increase, organizations can easily take advantage of SSD strengths. The TS-262 supports numerous SSD-aware features that significantly maximize NAS performance with high cost-effectiveness.Faster image identification with integrated Intel® OpenVINO™ AI engine.With integrated Intel® OpenVINO™ AI computing resources, the TS-262 accelerates AI image recognition performance without impacting other applications or services. QNAP AI Core primarily works with the QuMagie application.Abundant I/O capabilities with PCIe expansionThe TS-262 has a PCIe Gen3 x2 slot that allows for installing a expansion card to expand the TS-262‘s potential.QTS 5. Fast, smooth, and easy-to-use!The TS-262 supports the cutting-edge QTS 5, which builds upon its solid foundations with a smoother user interface and much more!The best storage for your high-resolution multimedia filesHigh-resolution RAW files eat up phone storage so quickly.
