Mikrotik

The new updated revision of CCR1009 is here. We attempted to combine all the customer feedback and best practice in CCR device manufacturing that we learned over the last three years since the first CCR1009 devices were launched.

Important changes

No switch-chip - the device now features only fully independent Ethernet ports each with a direct connection to the CPU, allowing to overcome previously shared 1Gbit limitation from switch-chip ports and utilize full potential of CPU processing power on those ports.

Combo-port - a single 1Gbit software interface that has two hardware interfaces - an SFP cage and a Gigabit Ethernet port, allowing you to use any type of connection available to you. It is also possible to switch between both physical interfaces in RouterOS. In an event of a disconnect, the combo port provides a hardware fail-over feature.

100Mbps SFP support - this is our first device that supports 100BASE-LX/100BASE-SX/100BASE-BX fiber modules, as well as standard 1.25G SFP modules.

More throughput - because the ports are now directly connected to the CPU, the new CCR1009 can achieve even higher throughput.

Like the other models in the CCR2004 series, this CCR also features the Amazon Annapurna Labs Alpine v2 CPU with 4x 64-bit ARMv8-A Cortex-A57 cores. While this CPU is running at 1.2 GHz, the router can be 3x as fast than the previous generation CCRs. This is the silent powerhouse. Enjoy all the power of a real CCR in peace and quiet. Get rid of all the hum and buzz in your office, studio, server room or home lab without sacrificing the performance!

The new router has 18 wired ports, including 16x Gigabit Ethernet ports and two 10G SFP+ cages. It also has a RJ-45 console port on the front panel.

Each group of 8 Gigabit Ethernet ports is connected to a separate Marvell Amethyst family switch chip. Each switch chip has a 10 Gbps full-duplex line connected to the CPU. The same goes for each SFP+ cage - a separate 10 Gbps full-duplex line. Boards come with 4GB of DDR4 RAM and 128MB of NAND storage.

So as you can see - no bottlenecks. As long as the CPU can handle the processing, all ports can reach wire speed. And this CPU is a beast that can handle a lot. If we look at the performance, you can see that it is trading blows with our CCR1009.

The best part? This brand-new CCR is among the most affordable options out there - not only within the CCR series but on the market in general. One of the most common ways to use this device would be Gigabit Ethernet ports for the internal network; SFP+ ports for downlink and uplink. The perfect all-in-one solution for small and medium-sized businesses. Easy and efficient.

The “Improvise. Adapt. Overcome.” mindset can be very helpful, but sometimes you simply need a device that works and solves the problem without additional tinkering. The CCR2004-1G-12S+2XS does just that – forget about all connectivity troubles and expand your setup in any way you please. This handy router features 12 x 10G SFP+ and 2 x 25G SFP28 ports.

CCR2004-1G-12S+2XS is our router with the most powerful single-core performance so far. It provides incredible results in single tunnel (up to 3.4 Gbps) and BGP feed processing.

Be prepared for anything: 10G, 40G and now 25G! Paired with such MikroTik multiport products as CRS317-1G-16S+RM, CRS312-4C+8XG-RM and CRS326-24S+2Q+RM, your networking setup will know no bounds. Performance-wise, CCR2004-1G-12S+2XS is on par with the renowned CCR1009/CCR1016 routers. And with dual redundant power supply you can forget about unexpected downtime! With its elaborate port configuration, the new CCR2004-1G-12S+2XS is the perfect addition to any professional networking arsenal – it will save you tons of time in some tricky situations!

Cloud Core Router 2116-12G-4S+ with case (US)

We wanted to see the full potential of the good, old, reliable 10G networking combined with a modern CPU. CCR2116-12G-4S+ allows you to forget about CPU limitations in your setup. Like its younger brother – the amazing CCR2004, this router features the mighty Amazon Annapurna Labs Alpine CPU.

But with 16 cores running at 2 GHz, this CCR eats the other one for breakfast. For example, we see at least a 15% increase in single-core performance. And that is the most important aspect when it comes to heavy operations based on per-connection processing. Like queues, for example. CCR2116-12G-4S+ sets a new standard of single-core performance in the whole CCR product family! And it supports Layer 3 Hardware Offloading!

Obviously, you need the right connectivity to harness this power. There are four 10G SFP+ ports. They have a separate, full-duplex line connected to the Marvell Aldrin family switch chip. Then we have Gigabit Ethernet ports. 12 of them are running through the Marvel chip. And there is another Gigabit port connected directly to the CPU. For management purposes.

Each group of 4 ports has a separate full-duplex connection to the switch chip. No bottlenecks here. You can expect switch-like throughput in most setups. The new generation of processors offers mind-blowing performance. If we look at the CCR1036 - the powerhouse with a 36-core CPU, the new CCR2116 can easily double the performance. 16 cores vs 36 cores. Double the performance. Or even more.

If you are a rather large ISP, dealing with dynamic routing, massive BGPs, complex firewall rules, and intricate quality of service configurations..This is the right device for you. Combination of raw power and utility with reliable 10G networking. And yes, like with any ISP-level device, we’ve included a dual-redundant power supply. So you have one less thing to worry about.

CCR2116-12G-4S+: technology tested by time, built for the future.

Cloud Core Router 2216-1G-12XS-2XQ with RouterOS L6 license (US)
Start your 100 Gigabit journey with our new flagship product: the Cloud Core Router 2216! Its powerful 16-core CPU can trade blows with the mighty 72-core Tile CPU of our previous flagship - the CCR1072.

But the exceptional Marvell Prestera Aldrin2 switch-chip really takes it to the next level with L3 Hardware Offloading! Our previous CCR2116 featured a switch-chip with four 10G CPU connection lines, but this time there are four 25G lines!

There are 2x QSFP28 cages for blazing-fast 100 Gigabit connectivity, 12x SFP28 cages for 25 Gigabit networking, and a Gigabit Ethernet port. The device comes with 16 GB of RAM, decent NAND storage, and two M.2 SATA slots for additional storage. There are four hot-swappable fans, as well as dual-redundant hot-swap power supplies.

You’re saving time and money on accessories, while also getting better performance with lower power consumption.. This is the perfect drop-in upgrade for existing CCR1072 setups!

Cloud Router Switch 310-1G-5S-4S+IN with RouterOS L5 license (US)
This switch is an indoor variation of the prominent netFiber 9 switch – used by many small and medium ISPs for reliable 10 Gigabit fiber connections stretching over 100 meters. With five 1G SFP ports, four 10G SFP+ ports, and an additional Gigabit Ethernet port, this is the perfect upgrade for existing CRS212 setups. You’re getting the modern ARM v7 CPU, 256 MB of RAM, and better cooling. The new Marvell switch-chips bring phenomenal performance to the table!

The Gigabit Ethernet port has a direct connection to the switch chip – so you can enjoy full gigabit speed there. And it supports PoE-in, giving you an additional powering option in tricky spots.

You can mount this switch in a standard 1U rack to keep everything organized. And it has all the power you would expect from a rackmount device: CRS310 supports hardware-offloaded VLAN- filtering. And even some hardware offloaded Layer-3 routing.

CRS310-1G-5S-4S+IN is a fantastic tool for anyone working with indoor connections over 100 meters while keeping data loss and ping low. Optical fiber can be a great alternative to copper if you are worried about electromagnetic interference, tampering, or eavesdropping.

The new Cloud Router Switch 317-1G-16S+RM is a rack-mountable manageable switch with Layer3 features, it has 16 SFP+ ports for high performance 10GbE connectivity and a 1GbE copper port for management.

CRS317-1G-16S+RM is powered by a next generation switching chip, giving you wire speed performance for all sixteen 10GbE ports with any Ethernet frame size.

CRS328-24P-4S+RM is a 28 independent port switch, it has 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports, which offer different power output options: Passive PoE, low voltage PoE, 802.3af/at (Type 1 “PoE” / Type 2 “PoE+”) with auto-sensing. PoE-Out is passed over mode B pins (4,5+)(7,8-). The four SFP+ ports provide up to 10 Gbps connectivity options via either optical fiber or Ethernet modules (not included).

CRS328-24P-4S+RM comes in a 1U rackmount case with 100-240 V AC 500 W power supply built-in. The device consumes up to 44 W leaving guaranteed 450 W (3x150 W per every 8 Ethernet ports) to power your PoE devices. Each port can provide up to 30 W of power with any power output option you choose.

The device has a “Dual boot” feature that allows you to choose between two operating systems - RouterOS or SwOS. If you prefer to have a simplified operating system with only switch specific features, use SwOS. If you would like the ability to use routing and other Layer 3 features in your CRS, use RouterOS. You can select the desired operating system from RouterOS, from SwOS or from the RouterBOOT loader settings. All the feature set comes with disruptive price, providing best price/performance on the market.

Cloud Router Switch 504-4XQ-IN,, desktop enclosure (US)
Our 100 Gigabit family keeps expanding – you’ve already seen the incredible CCR2216 100 Gigabit router. Now it’s time for a matching switch – the CRS504-4XQ-IN. The small size combined with the low power consumption (25W without attachments!) is perfect to start expanding 100 Gigabit networking in everyday setups. This speed is no longer limited to data centers, ISPs, and large offices. You too can upgrade your 10 or 25 Gigabit network and join the one hundred club!

There are four 100 Gigabit QSFP28 ports. Use them to connect other 100 Gigabit devices or grab a breakout cable to connect multiple 25 Gigabit devices: each port is connected to four 25 Gigabit lines, allowing you to connect 16 x 25 Gigabit devices. In fact, you can mix and match all kinds of connections this way: 100 Gigabits on one port, 40 Gigabits on the other, 4x25 Gigabits on the third, and maybe even some 10G or 1G cables on the fourth. The mighty Marvell DX4310 switch-chip will handle everything without breaking a sweat!

Obviously, there is an Ethernet port for management purposes as well.
We’ve been using this switch for quite some time now in the Genomics Data Network project. A high-capacity data network for our local scientists working on ground-breaking cancer treatments. Genome data can take up a lot of space, so you need exceptionally fast connections there. Also, with these devices, Latvia became the first Baltic country to establish a 100 Gigabit connection to the pan-European research network.

With multiple powering options and the ability to be mounted on the wall, this switch will make any system administrator happy.

"Cloud Router Switch 518-16XS-2XQ-RM with RouterOS L5 license,
rackmount case (US)"

As our 100 Gigabit product family grows, the time has come to introduce a serious enterprise-level switch. A switch that is up for the challenge when the CRS504 port density is just not enough. Introducing the spectacular CRS518-16XS-2XQ!

With 2x 100 Gigabit QSFP28 ports and 16x 25 Gigabit SFP28 ports, this is the perfect cost-effective addition to any enterprise network or data center. And with dual-redundant hot-swappable power supplies and fans, you won’t have to worry about unnecessary downtime.

Here’s a real-life setup – similar to the one we’re using in our office:

At the top, you could place two flagship CCR2216 routers to provide the main connectivity and routing. Then a blazing-fast 100 Gigabit connection leads to three CRS518 distribution level switches. This is where all the magic happens. The CRS518 switches connect every access level device to the main network, deal with traffic filtering, and network policy enforcement. And they handle all that with grace and dignity – thanks to the fantastic Marvell Prestera Aldrin2 switch-chip. The same chip you’ve seen in our flagship CCR2216 that did wonders with L3 Hardware Offloading.

The 25-gigabit ports are backward compatible with 10 Gigabit and 1 Gigabit SFP devices. Mix and match as you need!

The two hot-swap power supplies support a high input voltage range: 100-240V. The board itself uses up to 45W of power, while the total maximum power consumption goes up to 77W with all the attachments. It can be a bit more power-hungry than the CRS504, but you would be too if you had 16x 25-Gigabit ports, wouldn’t you?

Our 100 Gigabit product family keeps growing: switches, routers, cables, and QSFP28 modules. If you want real speed and ultimate flexibility for the best price on the market – you want MikroTik!

Nothing can stop this switch: it supports VLAN (802.1Q, 802.1ad), L3 hardware offloaded routing, ACL, LACP, MLAG, Jumbo frames, IGMP/MLD snooping, and so on. Keep your RouterOS up to date and enjoy the real power of CRS!

Cloud Smart Switch 610-8G-2S+IN with SwitchOS (US)

Cloud Smart Switch 610-8G-2S+IN is our answer to the everlasting demand for more power in a small and simple package. It comes with the lightweight SwOS which is easy to configure from your web browser. It gives you all the basic functionality for a managed switch, and more: you can manage port-to-port forwarding, broadcast storm control, apply MAC filters, configure VLANs, mirror traffic, apply bandwidth limitation and even adjust some MAC and IP header fields.

48V 1.46A 70W Power Adapter + Power plug

There are two ways to look at the brand new Fiber Box Plus. On the one hand, it’s a massive upgrade of our previous FiberBox devices. This version features a modern ARM CPU, more RAM, and four 10-Gigabit SFP+ ports. Fast and reliable connectivity on a budget. Without the distance limitations of Ethernet. There’s also a Gigabit Ethernet port for management purposes or PoE-in powering. We’ve also included a 2-pin terminal and a standard DC jack, so you have 3 different power options to choose from. FiberBox Plus supports a wide input voltage range of 24-57V. And it is remarkably efficient: maximum power consumption (without attachments) is only 7W.

Another way to look at the new FiberBox Plus – it’s a budget version of the amazing netFiber 9. You can save a lot of money if you don’t need the extra Gigabit SFP ports. It even features the same impressive Marvell 98DX226S switch-chip, so the performance is definitely there!

This rugged outdoor switch is perfect for connecting mast devices. Like the mANTBox 52 or the LHG XL 52. Imagine a huge campsite with several guest houses, a food court, and the owner’s cabin. You can connect all the locations with the FiberBox Plus. One of the fiber connections can be used for the mANTBox base station – to provide general connectivity for the guests. Another connection could go to the owner’s house. And the third could be used in the food court – to connect their payment and inventory servers.

Usually, you would need some kind of a junction box to keep everything safe. But our FiberBox Plus comes with a solid water resistance rating of IP66. That means protection against powerful water jets from any direction. So in the campsite scenario, your setup is not only safe from all kinds of crazy weather, but it can also withstand young pranksters with a garden hose. Not to mention damp basements, elevator shafts, seaport infrastructure, and so on. With FiberBox Plus, you have nothing to worry about.

CCR2004-16G-2S+, CRS510-8XS-2XQ-IN+ and CRS504-4XQ-IN units come with two hot-swap dual redundant power supplies. If one of them goes out of order at some point, the other one will take over. Then you can use this kit to replace the old power supply – and you don’t even have to restart the router!

GESP is Gigabit Ethernet Surge Protector that can be used to protect the network from lightning or surge damages.

Here’s what a typical use-case would be like. You have a mast with some antennas. And some switches on the ground. Put the GESP surge protectors on each end. They come sealed inside a new and improved IP67 weatherproof enclosure. Your antennas are now safe during a lightning storm.

Don’t forget about the grounding wire! Secure it to the rackmount, mast, or any other structure that is connected to the ground. For maximum protection, you should use a surge protector on both ends of long cables.

The GPeR unit allows extending Ethernet cable by an additional hop (< 100 - 150 m to regular network devices, and up to 210 m to another GPeR unit) up to 1,500 m.

Handy for highrise buildings, and multi-apartment buildings, with many floors and sections, where very long Ethernet cables might be a problem.

The maximum allowed length of CAT6 Ethernet cable between GPeR and power source/router is up to 100 m (depending on cable quality, high quality - up to 150 m).

The maximum allowed distance of CAT6 Ethernet cable between two GPeR devices is up to 210 m (depending on cable quality).

In case if the destination device does not support PoE-in powering, the PoE Passthrough can be disabled by manually removing all jumpers.

If your fans go out of order at some point, you can swap them without unnecessary downtime, as there is no need to turn the router off.

48 V 2 A 96 W power supply with plug (US), to be used with our products that support 48 V POE output, like hEX PoE and CRS112-8P-4S-IN. It’s providing 30% more current than the old model 48POW (48 V 1.46 A 70 W), allowing more power per port.

While the MTP250-53V47-OD (see related products) can output 53V 250W, the MTP250-26V94-OD works with a 26V 250W output. Both power supplies come in a sturdy IP67 enclosure with extra protection from dust and moisture.

The voltage will depend on your setup – take a look at the “DC jack input Voltage” in the Power input specifications of the desired devices. In our example the home access points are designed for 12-30 V power supplies, so we are using the MTP250-26V94-OD. If you have a setup demanding higher voltage – like a net of PTZ security cameras, you could use the MTP250-53V47-OD instead. Always check the necessary voltage before powering your devices!
