Oveview
10GbE-Ready Entry-Level Rackmount NAS For SMB Featuring Two SFP+
Ports And One PCIe 2.0 2 Slot
The TS-1232XU is built to deliver high performance, flexible expansion
capabilities and versatile applications at an affordable and cost-effective
price for small/medium-sized businesses. Two 10GbE SFP+ ports are capable of
high-speed transmission of time-critical business data and a PCI Express (PCIe)
2.0 ×2 slot (×4 length) provides flexibility for expanding connectivity and/or
storage with M.2 SATA/PCIe NVMe SSDs, via QNAP's QM2 expansion cards. The
TS-1232XU can be deployed to suit various needs for data storage, file backup,
disaster recovery, containerized applications, surveillance, and more.
The built-in 10GbE SFP+ ports deliver high speed for mission-critical
applications such as database hosting and VM storage.
One PCIe 2.0 ×2 slot (×4 length) is available for adding a 10GbE port and/or
M.2 SSD slots. With SSDs installed, Qtier auto tiering can be enabled to
optimize storage utilization.
Snapshots add an extra layer of protection to your disaster recovery plan,
giving you the flexibility to create and revert snapshots locally and/or
remotely.
The Hybrid Backup Sync app completes your backup strategies, allowing you to
back up, restore and sync files locally and remotely.
QNAP's Virtual JBOD technology can be used to expand remote NAS capacity,
ensuring all available space can be fully utilized.
QNAP offers versatile surveillance solutions that help secure your premises
and add values to the TS-1232XU.
A solid storage for everyday needs
The TS-1232XU is equipped with a AL-324 quad-core 1.7 GHz platform-on-chip
(PoC), from the Alpine V2 AL3 product family powered by Annapurna Labs, an
Amazon company. The included 4 GB RAM can be upgraded to a maximum of 16 GB for
futureproofing its capabilities. With 10GbE connectivity and PCIe expansion, the
TS-1232XU can provide performance of up to 2060 / 689 MB/s (unencrypted) and
1196 / 390 MB/s (with hardware-accelerated AES-256 volume encryption) to
significantly boost business operations.
Built-in 10 GbE SFP+ ports accelerate your workflows
With two built-in 10 GbE SFP+ ports, the TS-1232XU can immediately take
advantage of high-speed 10GbE network infrastructure. The 10 GbE SFP+ ports can
empower bandwidth-demanding tasks including databases, virtual machine storage,
and large data backups.
One PCI Express slot gives you expandability and flexibility
The TS-1232XU provides one PCI Express (PCIe) 2.0 ×2 slot (×4 length) for
expanding NAS functionality, such as installing additional 10GBASE-T ports and
M.2 SSDs (both SATA and PCIe NVMe*). QNAP offers a complete array of expansion
cards for you to take advantage of the TS-1232XU's PCIe expandability, including
QM2 expansion cards and single/dual port NICs.
Snapshots and Hybrid Backup Sync secure your data
A well-rounded disaster recovery plan requires multiple layers of protection
and backups to deliver peace of mind. The TS-1232XU supports snapshots to
manually/automatically record the content of files and changes to them at the
block level, allowing them to be quickly reverted in the event of corruption or
accidental deletion. For added data security, the Hybrid Backup Sync app can
help back up, restore and sync files to/from local external devices, remote NAS
and public cloud services.
Cross-platform file sharing and Qsync facilitate convenient file
exchange
The TS-1232XU supports SMB/CIFS, NFS, and AFP protocols for file sharing
across Windows, Mac, Linux/UNIX networks. Data can be centrally stored on NAS
and protected by rigid security measures provided by the TS-1232XU. The Windows
AD and LDAP services enable system administrators to configure user permissions
by using an existing Windows AD server, LDAP server or built-in LDAP service. To
sync data across devices, including mobiles, simply install Qsync Central on NAS
and Qsync clients on other devices to enjoy a fast, private, secure, and
real-time file sync service with the TS-1232XU.
Windows and Mac backups help keep data security in the
workplace
The TS-1232XU can handle file backup tasks from Windows® PC and Mac. By using
QNAP's NetBak Replicator backup utility, with a few simple clicks, you're all
set. For macOS users, Time Machine can be set up to save to the TS-1232XU.
Combined with snapshots and Hybrid Backup Sync, the TS-1232XU provides the solid
foundations of a disaster recovery plan.
QTS & App Center open endless possibilities
QTS, the QNAP NAS operating system, provides numerous functionality additions
and improvements, such as the revamped Qtier, RAID 50/60 support, Qboost, OCR
Converter, and much more. More apps are available from the QTS App Center, such
as Domotz, QVPN Service, and more. You can easily take advantage of apps from
QNAP and trusted third parties to expand NAS functionality and possibilities.
Secure your premises with integrated surveillance solutions
The TS-1232XU provides an intelligent surveillance management system for
real-time monitoring, video & audio recording, and playback to safeguard
your work environment. You can even use USB webcams as affordable IP cameras
with the free QUSBCam2 app. The TS-1232XU also supports QVR Pro, the
next-generation QNAP NVR system, that allows you to arrange a dedicated,
independent storage space for surveillance data on the NAS and leverage the
advantages of scalability and storage manageability from QTS.
Protect your NAS content with encryption and more security
features
The AL-324 PoC of the TS-1232XU supports hardware-accelerated AES-256
encryption of volumes, shared folders and LUNs to provide data confidentiality
without sacrificing performance. Other security features include IP address
filtering, virus and malware scan, and much more. You can also set access
permissions to ensure only authorized users or apps can access specified
folders. The QVPN Service, available from the App Center, can be utilized to
deploy VPN connections to secure communications between your devices and NAS.
Virtual JBOD and expansion units help share and expand storage
space
The TS-1232XU supports connecting a UX-800U-RP (8-bay) or UX-1200U-RP
(12-bay) expansion enclosure to scale up the total storage space. The unused
storage space on the TS-1232XU can also be used to expand the capacity of other
QNAP NAS by using QNAP's Virtual JBOD (VJBOD).
