Any druthers on pricing for the new CRS317? Will you also start offering your own 10GBASE-T SFP+ module to support Cat-6a copper runs? Cheapest 10GBASE-T module I've found is about $370, with many wanting $500+.

In regards to CRS317, is LACP support going to be implemented on hardware level?
+1

care to reply to this one, normis?

I am also super interested to know about hardware LACP, as well as G.8032v2 support.

Am I the only one that wants this 16 port 10 gig switch + the TILE-Gx 36 core chip?

Just attach the switch chip links straight to the TILE-Gx chip...or something similar...

Kind of a middle of the road router and switch. Able to utilize all 36 (or 16, or 9) cores and also able to run as a switch. Basically make all of the interfaces be in one large switch chip that also can connect to the TILE-Gx.

"no switch" CCR1009 sounds cool :=)
similar devices with mediatek SoC would be cool :=) or ARM -based (A35 or A53, preferably. power/silicon-wise. and yet bang/price ratio too).

Yes, X would be the logical code choice to indicate 10GBase-T.

IN and ac for SOHO router.

Performance Data of OmniTik AC PoE are max 2GBit/s. So I guess there is a switch chip for port 2-5 ?
Is it possible to include port 1 into the switch chip? What switch chip is built into it?

You can check that by setting the "all ports switched" checkmark in the switch chip config and see if it sticks.
On some router models it does, on most it doesn't.

My guess when looking at the specs and photos is that it is NOT possible to include port 1 in the switch.
Unfortunately there is no block diagram on the product page, as there is for some other products.

Great news! Switching through poe-in port gives us high packet rate up the tower without killing the cpu.

- new CRS317 with 16 x SFP+ ports, coming Q2/17

This completes CRS family :D
The new CRS with 16 10G will be a very nice start if price/features equals upp.

I would then say that this begins the CRS Family. Now we can go forward and do QSFP, QSFP28 (40G (4*10), 100G,50G,25G (4*25G,2*50G))
Moving up in the industry redundant hot swappable PSU and Fans with reversible airflow become a necessity

Personally I don't se the benefit of coper ports. The benefit of sfp ports is that it should be cheaper to manufacture because no interface needs to be attached. Then you choose what you want and the sum should be around buying with ports from start.
I'm not naive manufactures are often pricing, without ports sfp units, higher for some strange reason (and customers are buying that for yet another strange reason.)

One Cool effect with mikrotiks X port is that it can hardware switch on failure but then I would like to do that on two fibers or two coppers (can do that but you get the point) not one of each the X with MT choosing one interface and letting me choose the other one is not as good as if there where two sfp ports for one X connection.

But thats just my opinion... ;-)

I am confused about that as well... Buying a device with 12-24 SFP ports and then plugging in many copper SFPs to use it with copper ethernet
for sure will be more expensive than having a dedicated copper port device with a couple of SFP for the fiber connections if required.
Sure it is more modular, and it may be easier for the manufacturer. (no separate models with different mixes of copper/SFP)

... Will you also start offering your own 10GBASE-T SFP+ module to support Cat-6a copper runs? Cheapest 10GBASE-T module I've found is about $370, with many wanting $500+.
The ones I found were limited to 30m length, apparently 10GBase-T requires 4-8W of power which SFP+ can't provide.

Maybe a combination of fiber for longer runs + dac/twinax would work for you, apparently twinax goes up to 10m.

Hi there,

we're very waiting for a new version of the powerbox with Gigabit Ports and maybe 3 or 5 additional ethernet ports. It's very confusing that you offer high data rate wireless devices with GBit connector (Basebox, QRT for example), but most of the routers have only fast ethernet ports (100mbit). For example AC devices have more than 100mbit real data throughput. Anyway, are there any plans for a PowerBox upgrade? Probably like the new OmniTIK 5 PoE ac, but without wireless device.
We are mostly using central routers with connected PtP and user access devices. The best and cheapest solution is to mount it all outside. So you need only one LAN Cable into the building which is powering the central router.

Thanks in advance.
Attila

The gigabit router with PoE output is named "hEX PoE".
Maybe a bit confusing when you are looking for a "Powerbox G" or similar, but it appears to be the new naming convention for routers.

Ok I understand... maybe you can make an outdoor housing. But indeed it would be convenient when it comes in a ready outdoor housing.
(although in our climate, such flimsy devices often have moisture problems anyway and we use larger outdoor cabinets to install them)
Are you using it on HAMNET? 73!

Also great news about the CCR1009

Well done :)

I'm pretty sure very few people are going to be using copper with these. Which then makes sense with different types of fiber sfp options.

If it's all SFP+ of course, because it would not be economical. That's the point.

we can have
may be one day mikrotik can produce
cpe with 2 wlan or more wlan cards and same on base station side too

advantages as under:-
bonding to increase speed
may b fail over 2 different base stations or more
different frequency
different channels like 10/20/30/40
and more possibilities are there

In the rack it's much cheaper to use copper sfp+ from the switch to the server ports and it works well for 10Gbit. No need to put light into the ports if the servers are 1 meter away. In the same switch then ofcourse fiber sfp+ from installed fiber lines to other buildings or to workstations 30 m away.

I can see this being used in my core networks and data centres. If you can get over 100GB total throughput this could be a amazing price. Anyone seen a price for this?
Distributors have the sales info, the suggested price is $399 and yes, it can forward 160Gb/s wire speed.

Search google for the part number and you can find that some distributors have it on their web page, if not, ask them.
