QNAP’s next-generation routers go beyond simple IP settings and Wi-Fi connectivity, with the QHora-301W offering an all-in-one solution by integrating amazing new technologies for remote multi-site VPN, and high-speed wired and wireless connectivity.
The QHora-301W has two 10GbE ports for flexible LAN/WAN deployment.
The QHora-301W supports Wi-Fi 6 dual-band 802.11ax (2.4GHz & 5GHz) - 1.38x transfer than Wi-Fi 5.
SD-WAN is not just for high-end enterprises. The QHora-301W includes QNAP’s QuWAN solution to simplify remote VPN connections across multiple locations.
The next-generation QHora-301W includes Wi-Fi 6, 10GbE, and SD-WAN to fulfill both business and remote networking applications.
Compared with normal site-to-site VPN with high expenses and tedious configuration, the QHora-301W adopts QuWAN to build an efficient and reliable IT infrastructure, facilitating digital transformation, multi-site expansion and remote working.
The QHora-301W supports Wi-Fi 6 to offer faster wireless speeds for mobile and smart home devices, enabling multiple concurrent users. Remote workers can access company LAN resources via QuWAN, without needing complex VPN settings.
The QHora-301W pairs an enterprise-grade Qualcomm Quad-core 2.2 GHz processor with 1GB RAM, providing support for Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) and up to 3600Mb/s dual-band (2.4GHz & 5GHz) transfer speeds. With two 10GbE ports and four Gigabit ports, the QHora-301W enables flexible LAN/WAN deployment and optimized wired network performance.
With eight antennas, the QHora-301W provides the perfect wireless pattern view and supports Wi-Fi 6 for high-coverage Wi-Fi signals.
The QHora-301W features a fanless design for near-silent operations. Even when connected to multiple devices, the QHora-301W maintains dependable performance for offices and homes.
With two 10GbE ports and two Gigabit ports for WAN/LAN configurations, the QHora-301W offers following flexible usage scenarios for optimized network deployment.
Build a high-speed 10GbE Intranet by connecting two 10GbE ports to 10GbE devices in a LAN and one Gigabit port to WAN to accelerate file sharing or communication between workstations.
Build a high-speed 10GbE inter-office VPN by connecting one 10GbE port to one 10GbE device in a LAN, and one 10GbE port to WAN with another QHora-301W at a remote site for streamlined cross-site file backup, synchronization and sharing.
Build a high-speed 10GbE Intranet and inter-office VPN by connecting two 10GbE ports to 10GbE devices in a LAN, and two Gigabit ports to WAN. With SD-WAN enabled, the Gigabit ports not only support intelligent WAN optimization (including aggregation, failover, load balancing and flexible static routing) but also optimizes 10GbE LAN transmission.
When a business expands into remote working and distributed workforce operations, they face the challenge of VPN deployment efficiency and connection speed. Software-defined WAN (SD-WAN) technology effectively solves these issues – without requiring expensive enterprise-grade VPN equipment. The QHora-301W uses QuWAN (QNAP’s SD-WAN technology) that automatically deploys connected WAN services and VPN sites through software-defined networking to achieve optimal network bandwidth and transmission speeds. Not only does SD-WAN improve IT deployment and management efficiency for multi-site expansion, but it also provides reliable infrastructure to enable digital transformation and remote working.
With rapidly-growing demands for multi-site VPN, severe bandwidth bottlenecks are caused by the traditional headquarters-centered network infrastructure. Yet SMBs cannot afford enterprise-grade VPN equipment for multi-site VPN deployment.
QNAP SD-WAN technology, QuWAN, provides a full mesh VPN topology that works well in complicated networks where all peers need to communicate with each other, achieving cost-effective and resilient IT deployment.
Deploying multiple QHora-301W at different sites enables not only high-speed wired and wireless networking, but also interconnected Mesh VPN topology via SD-WAN. In homes, the QHora-301W as an Edge device offers home Wi-Fi and VPN connection to companies, allowing home workers to get the best of both worlds.
The QHora-301W prioritizes the stability of your Mesh VPN. QuWAN features intelligent WAN optimization to ensure transmission stability of the two 10GbE ports and four Gigabit ports.
One 10GbE port and two Gigabit ports can be flexibly connected to LAN or WAN.
Please make sure you’ve connected QHora-301W to QuWAN to enable WAN Optimization functions.
Combine the bandwidth of different ISPs to optimize WAN connection speeds and performance.
Application-based Routing auto-detects end-user applications to select the fastest routing path, and QoS reserves bandwidth utilization for high-priority tasks.
Integrate Hybrid Multi WANs (such as ADSL of different ISPs) to automatically connect to other available services if there is a service disconnection.
QuWAN Orchestrator is a powerful and convenient centralized network management cloud platform, enabling IT staff to remotely deploy and manage edge network devices.
