Mikrotik CRS320-8P-8B-4S+RM | MikroTik high-power PoE++ Industry Standard 802.3af/at/bt Switch

CRS320-8P-8B-4S+RM Cable management can get really exhausting. But it doesn’t have to. Our first PoE++ or 802.3bt switch can make your cable management so much easier, as it can output enough power for all your hotel, conference hall, office and high-rise building needs!

4K security cameras with built-in winter heating elements, LED ad screens, PoE-powered light fixtures – CRS320 can output up to 90W per port, enough even for the most demanding devices! It comes with a reliable 600 W power supply, but we’ve reserved an expansion slot for an additional PSU, in case you need to raise the power output to 1150 W.

There are 17 Gigabit Ethernet ports: #1 – #8 Gigabit Ethernet ports with 802.3af/at PoE-out, #9 – #16 802.3bt PoE++ ports, and an extra Gigabit Ethernet port for management purposes. There’s also a console port, and four 10G SFP+ fiber ports for uplink.

At its core, this convenient switch has a phenomenal Marvel switch-chip – the same one you’ve seen in ISP bestsellers like the netPower 16P and netFiber 9! It can handle the heaviest loads, including VLAN-filtering and hardware-offloaded Layer-3 routing.

If you’ve been looking for a way to simplify your cable management – this is it! With a single CRS320, you can ditch that endless mess of DC power adapters and start living the clean minimalist PoE dream.

Unlike our previous 802.3af/at Power Sourcing Equipment, this is our first PoE switch with full implementation of the 802.3af/at/bt standard. It supports only fully compliant 802.3 at/af/bt Powered Devices – mAP-lite / RB1100AHx4 / CRS510-8XS-2XQ / CRS504-4XQ / FTC11XG / CRS305-1G-4S+OUT. While it can also power “802.3af/at/bt-compatible” Powered Devices, you must avoid specific grounding scenarios. Please refer to the official Help page. .

Switching results

Ethernet test results

1. All tests are done with Xena Networks specialized test equipment (XenaBay),and done according to RFC2544 (Xena2544)
2. Max throughput is determined with 30+ second attempts with 0,1% packet loss tolerance in 64, 512, 1518 byte packet sizes
3. Test results show device maximum performance, and are reached using mentioned hardware and software configuration, different configurations most likely will result in lower results
