The two SFP+ slots accept an SFP+ module or a direct attach cable, linking the switch to the 10G network card of a server, a NAS or another switch. The eight 2.5G ports give computers and access points two and a half times the bandwidth of gigabit, and according to the supplier they also support 10/100/1000 Mbps, so older devices stay on the network too.
Home lab and NAS owners who want to move large files faster than a gigabit network allows; video editors and photographers whose workstation and storage have 10G or 2.5G network cards; and small offices where a fast connection to the server has to run without anyone managing the network.

The manufacturer does not specify. Keep in mind that the 10G slots need an SFP+ module or a direct attach cable, depending on what you are connecting.
Yes. According to the supplier the RJ-45 ports support 10/100/1000 Mbps, so a computer or printer with a gigabit network card works, simply at its own top speed.
No. The QG-U1080 is an unmanaged switch with no web interface or settings, so VLANs and other network rules cannot be created on it.
