QNAP SP-BRACKET-10G-EMU Desktop/1U NAS SFP+ 10GbE NIC Mounting Bracket

Overview

The SP-BRACKET-10G-EMU is a replacement or supplemental mounting bracket designed to seat a QNAP SFP+ 10GbE network interface card in a desktop or 1U rackmount NAS chassis. If you are retrofitting a 10GbE NIC into an existing QNAP unit or replacing a damaged bracket, this is the hardware-side piece that physically positions and secures the card at the rear I/O panel. The SP-BRACKET-10G-EMU solves the common fit problem when a NIC ships with only one bracket profile and your chassis requires the other form factor.

Compatibility

This bracket is specific to QNAP NAS systems and their companion 10GbE SFP+ expansion cards. Compatible deployment scenarios include QNAP desktop NAS enclosures and 1U rackmount NAS units that accept PCIe or proprietary NIC expansion cards with SFP+ 10GbE interfaces. Consult the QNAP NAS lineup and the specific NIC card documentation to confirm the bracket profile — desktop (full-height) versus 1U (low-profile) — required for your enclosure before ordering. For questions about which QNAP storage systems accept 10GbE expansion, reference the broader QNAP catalog or the network-attached storage category for compatible NAS platforms.
