SFP port on RB2011UAS

RouterOS General

Can the SFP port on the RB2011UAS feed a LAN switch? or is it only for WAN connections? I have a 48 port gigabit switch that also has an SFP port. This would be nice for throughput.

Thanks,
Matt

Hi there,

It certainly can feed a LAN switch.

I use a 2011UAS and the SFP port for this exact reason because the distance is too great for cat5e.

I have used the Mikrotik SFP modules in the 2011UAS and also in the Edgecore switch I use with no problems.

Great. Thank you for the information!

Technical it’s just a port like the other Gigabit ports. It’s up to you how to use it.
