QNAP develops AI-based NAS for surveillance services

Construido con un procesador ARM, he QNAP TS-AI642 offers high performance and great efficiency, with connectivity of 2,5 Carry, expansion capacity of 10 GbE through PCIe and two 4K HDMI outputs.

QNAP has created the NAS TS-AI642, a system based on artificial intelligence and built with the ARM processor of 8 cores and 6 NPU TOPS that accelerates image recognition through AI and intelligent applications for surveillance services.

By achieving high performance and great efficiency with connectivity of 2,5 Carry, 10GbE expansion capacity through PCIe and two 4K HDMI outputs, the TS-AI642 meets the demands of image storage, backup, and video surveillance for SMEs.

'The TS-AI642 is the first ARM-based AI NAS on the market'. By incorporating an NPU to improve AI image recognition performance , it is a surveillance and AI image storage NAS based on basic ARM and affordable for SMEs, states Jerry Deng, QNAP Product Manager.

Performance improvement can be achieved in 200 % AI image recognition in QuMagie photo management, performance in text capture from images using AI OCR in the Qsirch full-text search engine and an increase in the number of cameras for real-time analysis in QVR Face Insight facial recognition and the QVR Human people counting solution.

El TS-AI642 es un NAS de vigilancia profesional que permite instalar QVR Elite para implementar dos canales gratuitos o hasta 64 canales mediante la compra de licencias adicionales. Gracias al HDMI de dos puertos, se pueden reproducir y cambiar entre vídeos multicanal en dos monitores.

El TS-AI642 cuenta con un puerto 2,5GbE y una ranura PCIe Gen 3 x2 que permite a los usuarios instalar una tarjeta de red 10GbE. Si conecta una unidad de expansión de almacenamiento de QNAP TL-D1600S, los usuarios pueden añadir otras doce unidades de disco duro al TS-AI642 para conseguir un espacio de almacenamiento de hasta 350 TB que les permita responder a las crecientes necesidades de almacenamiento (utilizando unidades de disco duro de 22 TB in RAID 5).

TR series expansion units can also be connected to add hardware RAID protection for the expanded storage. Businesses can achieve massive storage capacities to meet archiving and long-term storage requirements with an optimal ROI.

It offers an all-in-one backup and restore solution that supports a wide variety of cloud-based services for easy hybrid cloud deployment. IT staff can take snapshots regularly to protect files against ransomware and create virtual private networks using the QVPN service to ensure their NAS has access to remote data.
