So… Are we going to talk about it or is it tabu topic? 
I’m personally quite disappointed with lack of LCD and USB.
NOTE: There’s poll related to this thread: https://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=138969
The images released were probably just prototype. I can’t see MT negating a feature like the USB from it’s mid level tier lineup. LCD I wouldn’t blame them from dropping, they’re a waste of resource at best.
LCDs on Routerboards are particularly sexy. Without one, I can’t show RB4011 to my better half. 
Neither can I show it to her with LCD … obviously 
LCDs are this tiny “premium” touch that makes device look better than it actually is xD I love them. It’s not like they’re super useful but they just feel nice. It’s not common to see LCD screens in this kind of hardware. F5 puts similar LCDs in their newer appliances that are waaaaay more expensive than mtk.
Two versions:
Rackmount: http://files.i4wifi.cz/inc/_doc/attach/StoItem/7148/en_datasheet_RB4011iGS_RM.pdf
with wifi: http://files.i4wifi.cz/inc/_doc/attach/StoItem/7150/en_datasheet_RB4011iGS_5HacQ2HnD_IN.pdf
It doesn’t really look like prototype 
I think there won’t be usb for us this time. No 3G backup links
Expected Delivery: October 2018
Hum
Really hope wifi will perform.
I wonder what processors will we see in future RB1100 and CCR series, as RBx011 has 4x1.4GHz now…
Prices are probably estimated but from what resellers suggest RB4011 won’t be direct RB2011 successor as it’s gonna be priced significantly higher (which obviously makes sense, after all it has the same CPU as RB1100AHx4) so I wouldn’t be too enthusiastic. Iirc highest Tile-Gx variant had 100x1.2 Ghz or something so it’s probably current limit of CCR capabilities.
RB3011UiAS-RM → 179$
RB4011iGS+RM → ~ 215$
RB1100AHx4 → 299$
So it is still closer to RB3011 than to RB1100.
And keeping in mind SFP+ port, the price is quite good.
Yep. I wonder how it compares to CCRs if we’re handling single TCP tunnel. Because single TCP tunnels don’t really scale well so ironically this device could perform better with single 10G TCP connection than CCR1009
Oh boy, it does look ugly with those rack-mount ears attached. Luckily I can close rack’s door. I wonder if LCD would suffice to maintain minimum level of sexapeal …
Well… At least it’s not full width rackmount case that is like idk… 10cm deep or something similarly comical like RB2011 used to be It always made everyone in my company giggle a bit when they saw full U1 case that has depth of patchpanel. Especially with Cisco modular beasts around xD This one at least doesn’t pretend to be beefy, full U1 router.
It’s a pretty clever way of combining rack-mount capability and desktop case into the same product. Not exactly pretty, but very funktional; I like it.
I too 
Agree. It’d be much prettier though if the RB itself was almost 1U high (unit height should have been 43.7 mm) instead of only 30mm Those rack-mount ears wouldn’t stand out (much). Being positive person I guess lower height of device is on purpose, perhaps to enhance air flow when 10 pieces of 4011 are stacked in rack one immediately above other.
I wonder how would two units, rack-mounted side-by-side (custom rack-mount hardware needed), would look like. I guess ugly as well due to weird (for rack-mounting at least) unit height.
With 228mm width two of them won’t easily fit side-by-side.
Hummm … used switch chip RTL8367 seems not to support VLAN in hardware. So usability of those 10 ethernet ports will be limited as switched ports when VLANs are in use … as all the traffic will hit CPU.
It seems like I won’t have to defend the level of sex appeal of this unit from my better half after all.
Not easy but should be doable … 19" racks accept 482 mm wide equipment. With two 4011 side-by-side there is some 26 mm of space left for mounting equipment. Both units can be placed tightly close to each other so all the remaining space can be used for the rack-mount ears.
