MikroTik SFP28 Switch CRS518-16XS-2XQ-RM

Introducing the spectacular CRS518-16XS-2XQ!

With 2x 100 Gigabit QSFP28 ports and 16x 25 Gigabit SFP28 ports, it's the perfect, cost-effective addition to any enterprise network or data centre. And thanks to the dual redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and fans, you don't have to worry about unnecessary downtime.

Here's a real-life example - similar to the one we use in our office:

Upstairs, you could place two flagship CCR2216 routers to provide the main connectivity and routing. Then a lightning-fast 100 Gigabit connection leads to three CRS518 switches on the distribution layer. This is where all the magic happens. The CRS518 switches connect all access layer devices to the main network, handle traffic filtering and enforce network policies. And they do it all with grace and dignity - thanks to the fantastic Marvell Prestera Aldrin2 switch chip. The same chip you saw in our flagship CCR2216, which worked wonders with L3 hardware offloading.
