Mikrotik CRS418-8P-8G-2S+5axQ2axQ-RM

Mikrotik CRS418 managed switch is the ideal solution for enterprise networks. It combines wired connectivity featuring 1G and 10G ports, Power over Ethernet (PoE) and an integrated access point with Wi-Fi 6 technology. Thanks to its hardware and software features, this model is perfect for managing demanding network environments. The metal design, intended for 1U rack mounting, and redundant power supply support reliability in continuous 24/7 operation.

Performance and flexible connectivity

The heart of the switch is a quad-core ARM processor clocked at 2.2GHz, paired with 1GB RAM. This combination ensures smooth operation even under high network loads. A switching capacity of 72Gb/s and the ability to process up to 107 million packets per second prevent data flow bottlenecks. A total of 17 gigabit Ethernet ports connect your devices, while two 10G SFP+ optical ports are ideal for building a backbone network or for high-speed connections to servers and storage devices.

Integrated Wi-Fi 6 and Power over Ethernet

This model combines the functions of a switch and an access point. Integrated dual-band Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) with a 4×4 MIMO antenna configuration provides wireless connectivity for laptops, phones and other devices. In addition, eight of the RJ45 ports support Power over Ethernet (PoE-out) standard 802.3af/at. With a total PoE budget of 150W, you can power connected devices without using separate power adapters.

Network management and operation

The switch offers L2/L3 functions for network management. You can use up to 4094 VLANs, configure Quality of Service (QoS), aggregate links using LACP or set up dynamic routing protocols such as RIP and BGP. The entire device is housed in a 1U rackmount metal chassis and operates in temperatures ranging from -20°C to +70°C.
