Part of Apcom Group, Dax Networks, one of the top three networking brands in India, launched the DX-2102E-NAS, a scalable Network-Attached Storage (NAS) device.

Priced at Rs 43,830/-, DX-2102E-NAS is a storage device for small businesses and SOHOs. DX-2102E-NAS offers features often found in high-end NAS servers and comes with in-built multimedia capabilities.

DX-2102E-NAS has a built-in iSCSI target service, policy-based unauthorized IP blocking, SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol), remote replication, a Gigabit LAN port, and 3 USB ports (with a built-in auto-copy feature).

The in-built iSCSI target feature makes the NAS an ideal solution for backup or storage expansion for Small businesses and SOHOs. This feature allows users to easily create dedicated virtual drives on the NAS for their PCs or existing servers. The iSCSI drives on the NAS can be formatted as file systems and used as local drives. The NAS is populated with 2x1TB HDDs and is scalable up to 4TB depending on the expansion needs of the consumer.

The backup software helps NAS users perform real-time synchronization. The NAS also works well with 3rd party backup software and allows data on the NAS to be backed up securely over the network, to or from another NAS. The integrated one-touch button can be configured to trigger instant data backup from the external USB device to the NAS or the other way round.

DX-2102E-NAS supports Hard Disk Drive S.M.A.R.T (Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology) for monitoring the hard drive status. Moreover, the NAS is embedded with HHS Technology which supports disk checking and bad blocks scanning.

To prevent the NAS from malicious attacks, the server manager can create an IP filter policy to allow, deny, or auto-block the IP address or network domain which attempts to connect to the NAS via SSH/ Telnet/ HTTP(S)/ FTP/ samba/ AFP.

Multimedia Hub
The integrated UPnP/ DLNA media server supports gaming consoles and works well with NFS-supported High-Definition (HD) digital media players, allowing DX-2102E-NAS to act as a multimedia station.

The Surveillance Station enables you to configure multiple IP-based security cameras simultaneously for real-time monitoring, recording, and playback.

DX-2102E-NAS comes with a 3-year warranty and online support for customers. Dax intends to supply the current market requirement of this product through its broad network of Authorized Dax Solution Providers (ADSPs) and system integrators.
