With CES 2019 Starting in Las Vegas, we are already seeing another of the biggest NAS brands sharing information on their latest releases for 2019. On brand I always keen a keep eye on during this period is QNAP NAS. Over the years we have seen some great hardware announced at this trade show, almost always released later that same year (exceptions such as the TGX-150, of course, will persist). CES 2019 is proving to continue this trend, as QNAP have announced some new hardware AND software featuring on their NAS drive range. In this post, I want to talk about the odd/amazon sounding new QGD-1600P NAS+POE Switch Guardian hybrid device they have announced – it sounds amazon/weird! Take a look.
What makes the QNAP Guardian QGD-1600P so unique?
Although at this time we do not have an image (I will update as and when I do) this new QNAP Guardian QGD-1600P NAS switch-based hardware is designed to combine the features and functionality of a managed PoE switch for optimizing your network, as well as the storage, media, RAID and application support of a mid-range NAS (Plex, containers, Surveillance, Backups, DLNA, etc). QNAP is revealing this device to promote their QVR Pro surveillance platform alongside HDMI out to push its use as a standalone KVM Surveillance station. Below is everything we know so far:
Here is the official QNAP Press Statement from CES 2019:
QNAP boosts networking efforts to roll out a refreshed Guardian QGD-1600P that integrates NAS, managed switch, and Power over Ethernet (PoE) capabilities into one device. The QGD-1600P features an Intel® Celeron® J4105 processor, two 2.5-inch SATA drive bays, two PCIe slots, and one HDMI output; runs the QTS operating system with the App Center to realize various applications including virtual machines, containerized apps, and video surveillance; and also acts as a 16-port managed switch, which is based on the Microchip® VSC7425, IEEE 802.3bt ready with power level up to 90W, and supports VLAN, QoS, and port-based PoE control. A live demo with QVR Pro will be presented to demonstrate a budget-friendly option for deploying a video surveillance solution with HDMI monitoring, advanced networking management, and PoE support.

hm.... a managed switch with POE port capability ... affordable? sounds interesting
my impression of it, when i think of a managed switch, i do not associate that being integrated with NAS functionality directly on it. I would love to see the upcoming reviews when they come to explain this type of device
2bay NAS + 16 ports managed switch + POE all in one = how much
this video illustrates how you would go about using the POE switch for setting up IP cams

With IEEE 802.3bt, PoE Meets the Smart Building and IoT
Full articleAfter its release as an IEEE standard in 2003, Power over Ethernet (PoE) has continued its upward spiral in performance, demonstrating an ability to transfer Ethernet data at faster speeds and dc power at higher levels—all in a single eight-wire bundle. And every enhancement to the standard adds to its popularity, so much so that most analysts project global revenue from PoE power-sourcing equipment (PSE) and powered devices (PDs) will reach at least $3 billion in 2025 from less than $1 billion today. To meet the challenge of the latest PoE standard, PSE equipment and the PDs themselves will need controllers capable of handling it.
When PoE emerged in 2003 as the IEEE 802.3af standard, only 13 W at 350 mA could be transferred over a distance of 100 m, which was sufficient for powering some VoIP systems, CCTV cameras, and RFID along with other types access control. However, devices such as videoconferencing, Wi-Fi routers, pan-tilt-zoom or heated cameras, and door interlock systems draw more current, so they were beyond the means of 802.3af to power them.
In 2009, the IEEE 802.3at enhancement was ratified, which increased power to 25.5 W at 600 mA, solving the problem for some of these systems. However, others were still tethered to the 120-V ac mains. The next version, 802.3bt, brings maximum power to about 90 W, which accommodates many more types of devices, including even cellular small-cell base stations. It should be ratified before the end of the year.
In addition, since PoE was first standardized, almost all electronic systems have become far more efficient, further adding to the list of potential PoE candidates. Thus, thanks to the increased power delivery of PoE combined with more efficient devices in general, 802.3bt should significantly boost PoE’s popularity in the future.
