The RJ45 connector design also allows users to use existing cables offering transmission speeds of up to 5 Gbps when using CAT-5e cables, or up to 10 Gbps when using CAT 6 (or advanced versions) cables.
Drivers for Windows and Linux users are available from NIC manufacturer Aquantia’s website, using the QXG-10G2T-107 in a QNAP NAS requires QTS 4.3.6 or later for compatibility.
