It would be extremly nice to have hAP-AC2 with SFP port.
Something like Hex and HexS but with HW VLAN support…
Why would a home/office Access point/router have an SFP port ?
There are many other models with SFP ports…
And why not? Original hAP AC has it 
And why not? Original hAP AC has it >
So, it should have an SFP because another model does?
Also hap ac with hap ac 2 are completelly different, the only common they got is their name… hap ac has different CPU, different architecture, different wireless chips and different prices.. you can’t compare…
100% agree, a HAP AC2 with SFP, and a hap ac lite with SFP.
The HAP AC is a tad too expensive.
We would buy 100s of them.
So what?
You asked “Why would a home/office Access point/router have an SFP port ?” like it’s some kind of nonsense never seen before.
While it’s really a nice feature to have for some users.
Home users as well.
You are right, hAP AC is a very different device, and one of the major differences is price.
So just as we can chose between hEX and hEX-S for an inexpensive but rather powerful router, it would be nice if we could choose between hAP ac2 and some hAP-S ac as an inexpensive all-in-one solution.
The point was:
- HEX price 45 EUR + VAT
- HEXS price 55 EUR + VAT
- hAP-AC2 price 55 EUR + VAT
- And I see here hAP-AC2+SFP for 65 EUR + VAT (my estimate…no such product)
Why… I have many custumers where we come to them with Optics and they want just one single affordable device with WiFi..
But I am unsure if IPQ-4018 supports SFP… I would gladly loose one RJ45 port for SFP…
Some of you would also use it in GPON setups..
And I see I am not the only one with such request..
Here’s to hoping

If you want an sfp port then buy a mikrotik model with an SFP port! So many!!!
If i wanted my car to have a racing exhaust, would i tell the factory to produce it the way i want? 
I already have one.
And that’s not the point.
Current mikrotik product line is missing a particular item that was present in the previous generation product line: affordable compact all-in-one device with sfp port.
Despite your jokes that’s a demanded product.
Because in today’s product line it’s either hEX-S + AP or RB4011.
Both options are a compromise.
There is definitely a need for a hap ac lite or hap ac2 with SFP. An all in one device for active networks that is cheaper than the HAP AC.
When I read first time the “hap ac2” I thought ut will be the successor of the “hap ac”, with more power. But not 
bump
+1
hAP-S ac²/lite would be most welcome.
PS.: But is important to have compatibility with GPON SFPs. Unlike RB4011.
