MIKROTIK

MikroTik CRS318-16P-2S+OUT outdoor network switch 16 × PoE, 2 × SFP+

The MikroTik netPower 16P (CRS318-16P-2S+OUT) is an outdoor network switch with 16 Gigabit ports with PoE out and two SFP+ cages for 10G fibre uplinks. Its compact housing mounts on masts, poles, in shafts or in damp attics.

  • Ports: 16 × 1 Gbit/s RJ-45, all with PoE out (IEEE 802.3af/at)
  • Uplink: 2 × SFP+ (10G fibre)
  • Performance: 72 Gbit/s switching capacity, 53.6 Mpps forwarding rate
  • Management: L2/L3, 98DX226S CPU at 800 MHz, 256 MB RAM
  • Power: DC input 18–57 V, up to 316 W consumption
  • Housing: 212 × 78 × 303 mm, operating range −40 to 70 °C

Description

The power supply sets the PoE voltage

The switch has no onboard voltage converter, so the ports pass on the same voltage that comes from the power source. With a 24 V power supply devices get 24 V PoE; with a 48 V unit they get standard IEEE 802.3af/at power. The manufacturer names the MikroTik 24HPOW, 48POW and 48V2A96W as compatible, and a battery pack can be used too. Non-blocking throughput is 36 Gbit/s.

Who this network switch is for

Wireless internet providers building a mast node with several access points and an uplink, and installers powering IP cameras in a yard, warehouse or farm. The −40 to 70 °C operating range lets it run in unheated spaces and outdoors.

Questions & answers

Is a power supply included?

According to the manufacturer description, no. The MikroTik 24HPOW, 48POW and 48V2A96W are compatible, as is another 18–57 V source; the supply voltage sets the PoE output voltage.

How many cameras or access points can it power?

All 16 ports have PoE out. The manufacturer does not state a total PoE budget in watts; maximum switch consumption is 316 W, and the real capacity depends on the power supply used.

How is it mounted?

The housing is built for outdoor use: according to the manufacturer it can be fixed to a mast or pole with hose clamps, or placed in a shaft or attic. This model has no rack mounting.
