The business models have NIC teaming as a feature. This allows you to bond two NICs together to get failover and/or faster performance (if you have multiple client machines accessing the NAS over different protocols).
Naturally as the Ultras are targeted at the home user, the home features are advertised for these. The Pro 6 is targeted at the business user so when these products are promoted the business features are highlighted.
I'd definitely recommend asking PreSales questions here on the forum.
