Finally out? Is this the RB1000 replacement?
Not out yet, but they have leaked a bit of information to get us talking. The announcement will be at MUM next week.
- RB1100 13-port gigabit rackmount router
So all we know is that the model is RB1100, it is a rack mount router, and has 13 ports which include gigabit ports. It could be more than 1U.
I am looking forward to the announcement.

A redundant power supply would be great.

Normis is a TEASE!!! ![]()
I actually wish I could have held off a month on my latest RB1000 purchase…
Hey Tom!!!
Tom didn’t know about it, the product will be revealed at the MUM. All anyone knows is the name. How do you even know it will be comparable with RB1000 in any way?
I think you mis-understood the tone of my message… It wasn’t to express anger… And the hey Tom … Wasn’t anything but a shout out…
Me and Tom were neighbors in the MTCTCE class in dallas…
Hey neighbor,
I checked out your web site. You have a really nice niche market down there in LA.
Like Normis said… We distributors are left in the dark just like everyone else.
I’m looking forward to the MUM news.
Tom
Waiting for the 12:00 AM webcast…

Are you sure about the time? I was thinking 3am Monday morning for Chicago which would be 1am for Pacific Time Zone.

So 13 ports, 1U, PPC CPU.
Still wondering about CPU speed and whether any of the ports are SFP. I couldn’t see the interfaces clearly in the video.
Summary:
- Same CPU as RB800
- 13 x Gigabit port
- 2 x Attansic switch chips (2 x 5port switches)
- 1x POE capable port
- 1U Form factor
- Front/Rear air vents
It has some nice improvements, but I am a bit disappointed about it not having a multi-core processor, and from what I heard during the questions and after-discussion quite a few people were disappointed about the lack of SFP’s
Price?
Price?
one million dollars!

In a other thread they did say about $500 (but it was unclear).
Sorry about the Dr. Evil, could not help myself ![]()
- Same CPU as RB800
So a considerable downgrade in grunt over the RB1000???
Maybe Normis said that meaning it was PPC. Wait for the official spec sheets to get the speed I guess.
the CPU of RB800 and RB1000 is the same performance wise. The test is different because it has one less ports. So RB1100 has the same power CPU as RB1000 essentially.
Any plans on releasing anything more powerful? I like buying an appliance so I don’t have to worry about compatibility.
