Qsan Collaborates With EnGenius Networks

Qsan Technology Inc. announces a collaboration with EnGenius Networks Europe B.V. for end-to-end 10GbE connectivity solution in its XCubeNXT and XCubeNAS series.

Qsan’s unified storage featuring 10GbE connectivity provides all-in-one platform application and non-disruptive service. The storage devices are designed in various form factors varying from tower NAS to rackmount NAS in order to meet the demand of all sizes of business. SMB, ROBO, and enterprise may choose from different models and bays based on their needs.

The software ensures data integrity. ZFS-based file system adopts end-to-end checksums to detect and correct silent data corruption. The OS, which offers AES-256, SED, and WORM mechanism, doubles the security level for all clients’ important data. Moreover, XCubeNXT and XCubeNAS series’ UI assists clients with preventing data theft or backdoor cyberattack. Handling data security in multiple means, Qsan focuses on building a safe environment for all industries.

EnGenius 10GbE switches are designed to meet the increasing requirement of bandwidth-demanding tasks and to provide fast transfer speed for NAS applications. They enable end devices (e.g., workstations) to access large files faster via a 10Gb/s NAS, which improves, for instance, multimedia editing efficiency. 10Gb/s data rate on LAN enlarges both headroom and capacity for data transfer across information sources (e.g., storage devices) and therefore rule out bottlenecks between switches.

“We at EnGenius are extremely proud to collaborate with Qsan to deliver a solution to meet today’s rapid data growth challenges. Not only is the future of 10Gb booming in the media and the entertainment sector but is also thriving in the surveillance market. Together, we meet all the requirements, to ensure that our joint venture will grant customers with a highly competitive expanded solution!,” said Derk Keuter, regional sales manager, EnGenius.

The adaption of 10GbE LAN by Qsan accelerates data rate on copper. To ensure interoperability of Qsan’s and EnGenius’ devices, compatibility tests are done between the models. The EnGenius ECS5512 10G/s multi-switch is tested in the lab of Qsan in Taiwan and has been qualified and added to the compatibility matrix.

“We are always dedicated to delivering storage solutions with core competence. Cooperating with EnGenius Networks is a pleasant move as we expect 10G/s switch connectivity solution to help all sizes of our clients with better performance under highly secured data protection,” said Phil Tai, product management director, Qsan.
