Every RJ-45 port supports both PoE (802.3af) and PoE+ (802.3at) and delivers up to 30 W. A camera, Wi-Fi access point or IP phone therefore gets data and power over one network cable, with no separate adapter or wall socket needed next to the device. The switch has a 500 W power supply inside; the manufacturer does not state a separate total PoE budget.
Alongside the copper ports, the switch has four SFP+ slots. SFP+ is the 10-gigabit connection standard used to link the switch to a server, a storage system or another switch with an optical module or a direct-attach cable. That way the traffic of 24 Gigabit devices does not get squeezed into a narrow uplink, and a distant network cabinet is easy to reach over fibre.
The switch boots into either RouterOS (L5 licence) or SwitchOS, whichever you choose. SwitchOS is a simpler switch system configured through a web interface, suited to cases where you only need to manage ports, VLANs and PoE. RouterOS unlocks the L3 features and the full depth of MikroTik configuration for those who already run other MikroTik equipment. Which system to use can be decided by how complex the network is.
As a managed L3 switch it supports up to 4000 VLANs, so cameras, phones, the guest network and office computers can be kept apart on the same physical network. Guests do not see the internal company network, and camera video streams do not weigh on office traffic. Port mirroring copies the traffic of a chosen port to another port where it can be analysed, which is essential for troubleshooting and security checks.
The switch mounts in a rack and weighs 3.826 kg. The RJ45 console port lets you configure or recover the device directly over a cable even when there is no network access. A switching capacity of 128 Gbit/s means all ports can run at full speed at the same time. There is a single power supply; this model has no redundant power.
Businesses powering security cameras, access points or IP phones over PoE; IT administrators who need VLANs and L3 features in one rackmount device; and builders of MikroTik networks who want the choice between RouterOS and the simpler SwitchOS. The four SFP+ slots come in handy when a server or another network cabinet needs a fast connection.
