    Description

    MikroTik CRS518-16XS-2XQ-RM is an advanced rackmount switch that offers powerful networking capabilities with 16 25G SFP28 ports and 2 100G QSFP28 ports. This robust switch is designed for high-demand data center and enterprise environments, providing exceptional performance and flexibility for complex networking setups.

    Mikrotik CRS518-16XS-2XQ-RM Image 0

    As our 100 Gigabit product family grows, the time has come to introduce a serious enterprise-level switch. A switch that is up for the challenge when the CRS504 port density is just not enough. Introducing the spectacular CRS518-16XS-2XQ!

    With 2x 100 Gigabit QSFP28 ports and 16x 25 Gigabit SFP28 ports, this is the perfect cost-effective addition to any enterprise network or data center. And with dual-redundant hot-swappable power supplies and fans, you won’t have to worry about unnecessary downtime.

    Here’s a real-life setup – similar to the one we’re using in our office:

    At the top, you could place two flagship CCR2216 routers to provide the main connectivity and routing. Then a blazing-fast 100 Gigabit connection leads to three CRS518 distribution level switches. This is where all the magic happens. The CRS518 switches connect every access level device to the main network, deal with traffic filtering, and network policy enforcement. And they handle all that with grace and dignity – thanks to the fantastic Marvell Prestera Aldrin2 switch-chip. The same chip you’ve seen in our flagship CCR2216 that did wonders with L3 Hardware Offloading.

    The 25-gigabit ports are backward compatible with 10 Gigabit and 1 Gigabit SFP devices. Mix and match as you need!

    The two hot-swap power supplies support a high input voltage range: 100-240V. The board itself uses up to 45W of power, while the total maximum power consumption goes up to 77W with all the attachments. It can be a bit more power-hungry than the CRS504, but you would be too if you had 16x 25-Gigabit ports, wouldn’t you?

    Our 100 Gigabit product family keeps growing: switches, routers, cables, and QSFP28 modules. If you want real speed and ultimate flexibility for the best price on the market – you want MikroTik!

    Nothing can stop this switch: it supports VLAN (802.1Q, 802.1ad), L3 hardware offloaded routing, ACL, LACP, MLAG, Jumbo frames, IGMP/MLD snooping, and so on. Keep your RouterOS up to date and enjoy the real power of CRS!

    About Mikrotik

    Authorized MikroTik Products in India: Enterprise Power for Your Home & Office

    MikroTik: The Ultimate Tool for Network Architects

    MikroTik is not just hardware; it’s a sandbox for networking excellence. From the legendary stability of RouterOS v7 to hardware that punches far above its price bracket, MikroTik is the preferred choice for Indian ISPs, home-lab enthusiasts, and businesses requiring surgical control over their data.

    At FGTECH Store, we bridge the gap between complex hardware and real-world deployment. As an authorized partner, we don't just sell MikroTik—we help you master it.


    🚀 Why RouterOS v7 Changes Everything for Indian Users

    The jump to RouterOS v7 has unlocked enterprise capabilities previously reserved for million-dollar hardware:

    • Modern VPNs: Native WireGuard support offers a faster, lighter alternative to L2TP, perfect for remote work in India where latency matters.

    • ISP Freedom: Simplified VLAN 1015 tagging and MAC cloning make MikroTik the gold standard for bypassing restrictive ISP ONTs (Jio/Airtel).

    • Hardware Offloading: Enhanced L3 hardware offloading on models like the CRS series allows you to switch at wire-speed while maintaining complex firewall rules.


    Solution-Driven Categories

    1. The "Jio/Airtel Bypass" Kits

    Stop letting your ISP router bottleneck your fiber. Our selection of hAP ax³ , hex S new model (E60iugs) and RB5009 units are pre-vetted for Indian fiber environments. Use our technical guides to take full control of your public IP and routing.

    2. High-Performance SOHO & Home Labs

    For power users running servers or 4K surveillance, the hAP ax series brings Wi-Fi 6 stability. If you're a "tinkerer," the hEX (2025 Edition) offers the most affordable gateway into professional networking.

    3. Enterprise Core & Edge Routing

    Scale your business with the Cloud Core Router (CCR) series. Designed for high-density environments and data centers, these units handle full BGP tables and massive NAT workloads without breaking a sweat.
