Awesome to read about the S+RJ10 SFP module, that could come in handy in certain situations!
I’m guessing that combined with an Intel X540-T1 it’s going to be only 1/10Gbps and max 30 meters for 10Gbit?
Also the specs lists the compatible Mikrotik devices, am I reading it correctly this SFP+ module is not compatible with the CRS226 but will probably work just fine in the upcoming CRS328-24P-4S+RM?
Indeed!!! Just to be sure - MT didn’t you forget to add one digit (“1”, “2” or even “3”) in front of S+RJ10 “$65” price??? I got pair 10G-only modules for almost $700 few months ago, and these are 6-speed…
I would really prefer if you did not announce the prices …
Local distributors here are selling Mikrotik gear way times more expensive, for example RB1100AHX4 is currently 570$ or 475$ before taxes, so it is pretty annoying to find out that we are being robbed like that, it is better just not to know …
Yes it is Dude Edition dude … it is advertised here on top banner at $349.00 … and that is way cheaper than what we have to pay here … but enough of me whining
Will the fiberbox have a hardware switch available?
And with the new 6.41 version’s handling of hardware acceleration, would it be capable of participating in RSTP to make a ring of the things that’s capable of transporting vlans?
The reason I ask is that this box also looks interesting as an outdoor NID type of device for FTTH where you could deploy them in rings of active ethernet (supposing that the switching is wire speed capable and you’re not looking to oversubscribe the rings by any serious margin)
What are you planning to calculate? This type of product requires 100% clear line of sight and will work for up to 100 meters, or a little bit more.
The antenna is not your typical 802.11ac, it has no specific gain. It has a phase array beamforming antenna where each element has a different gain, depending on situation.
