FAQs

Q1: Which Synology NAS models are compatible with the E10G22-T1-Mini?
This module is supported on models with a dedicated network upgrade slot (e.g., DS923+, DS1522+, and RS422+). Always verify on Synology’s compatibility list.

Q2: What type of cable is required for 10GbE?
Use Cat6A or higher for full 10GbE performance. Cat5e/6 can be used for lower speeds (up to 5GbE).

Q3: Is any software or driver installation required?
