16/32/48 ports

I am thinking that larger switch from mikrotik is on thin ice. There is no any info about that for almost 2 years.

That product would be really interesting. I hope price will be too :wink:

hi Normis, any progress ?
I am waiting for routerboard cloud router with 48 ports almost two years :slight_smile:

It’s anybody here ?

Ethernet switching market today its very complicated

at this moment designing a new product involves very difficult decisions

i think mikrotik its deciding about 2.5g and 5g ethernet… i hope


polishing CRS development and including it on certification and training maybe its a good idea to formalize switching portfolio

I need this…

Redundant Power supplys and SFP’s 1:1 ie 20 spf and 2 sfp+ or 40 sfp and 4 sfp+
we have 10sfp + 1sfp+ but we need bigger of the same so save space in closet. and offcourse redundant (perhaps optional for pricepoint / servicability) PSU+s
Perhaps one with 8 sfp+ and 2 qsfp+
Please support setting the wavelength of inserted sfps! (The tunable ones that is)

Do people still want SwOS instead of some kind of CRS?

There are times that the simplicity of switch is nice. I recently had to think about that one myself, and elected to get the RB260GS switch. I only needed 5 ports, but I also have two 48 port HP managed switches at my house (neither are fully loaded). However, speculating on what a 24 port version of a RB260 would cost vs what a CRS does cost, it likely does not make much sense for MikroTic to develop a 24 port switch only.

for 48port switch and ccr

take my money

ccr with 48ports pls
ideal with sfp+ port for uplink :slight_smile:

How would you use so many ports on router? Are you routing between 30 different networks at one place?

I think the concept would more of a large switch - that “oh by the way” has a router in it too. Personally I have two 48 port HP managed switches at home (although neither is anywhere near fully loaded).

I use an HP 1920 at home, and I have 12 48-Port HP 1920 PoE’s at my sites. I would kill for a nice high-end MikroTik PoE+ switch

Gee, my father also lives in La Verne… Nice to see a local here…

What I need:

  1. 48 port ethernet CRS with 2 x SFP - standard switch to compete with the Ubiquiti edgeswitch and other brands
  2. 24 port SFP and 4 x SFP+ CRS switch. Something to compete with the Edge-core and netgear brands.
  3. 24 port SFP+ and 2 x 40Gb SFP uplinks - or even toss the 40Gbps links and just have 24-28 SFP+ ports

Would be nice to have some sort of stacking features with the CRS - e.g use 5 of the same models above and only need to manage 1.

hello experts i am new here and i have a question . how to set cisco switch as a interface card in mikrotik is their any solution i wan to connect "attach " cisco switch to mikrotik as a interface like "ether1,ether2 and so on… " please kindly reply i’ll be highly thank full .

Wrong thread - search through existing threads or create a new one under General or beginner basics.

I would prefer when MikroTik focussed on what they do good (small routers and its firmware, WiFi equipment)
and leave the manufacturing of 48-port switches to the existing companies that provide a good product
at ever more reasonable price. It is not good to try to compete with those fully fledged products and then
always hear the whining about this-and-that-essential-feature that the MikroTik product lacks because the
developers are still frantically writing the firmware.
Better put those developers on RouterOS 7.

That said, it would be nice to have a switch-with-passive-PoE with a little more outputs, say up to 16.
The PowerBox has too few outputs for us and we don’t need a router at that place either.
Ubiquiti makes suitable switches but the 8 and 16 port models have built-in PS which in this case (roof mounting)
would better be 24v DC over a separate wire.
