EXPERT FEATURES

  • 16-Core ARM Routing Power : AL73400 ARM 64bit CPU with 16 cores running at 2GHz gives this CCR serious muscle for dynamic routing, firewall rules, queues, QoS, and ISP-grade workloads.
  • Massive BGP Performance Boost : Built for large ISP environments dealing with dynamic routing, massive BGPs, complex firewall rules, and heavy quality-of-service configurations.
  • 4x 10G SFP+ Uplinks : Four 10G SFP+ ports provide serious high-speed fiber connectivity for backbone, aggregation, and demanding network expansion.
  • 13x Gigabit Ethernet Ports : Includes 13 total 1G Ethernet ports, with 12 Gigabit ports through the switch chip and one Gigabit port connected directly to the CPU for management.
  • Switch-Like Throughput Design : Each group of four ports has a separate full-duplex connection to the switch chip, helping reduce bottlenecks in most setups.
  • Layer 3 Hardware Offloading : Supports Layer 3 Hardware Offloading for high-performance routing acceleration where supported by configuration.
  • 16GB DDR4 RAM : Massive 16GB DDR4 memory gives the router serious headroom for RouterOS, routing tables, services, and advanced network configs.
  • M.2 PCIe Expansion : Built-in M.2 PCIe slot supports SSDs up to 8TB, useful for advanced RouterOS use cases and storage-heavy applications.
  • Dual-Redundant Power Supply : Two AC inputs and dual-redundant power supply design add reliability for ISP, datacenter, and always-on business network environments.
  • Efficient High Power Design : Delivers hardcore routing performance with 60W max power consumption without attachments and 72W max power consumption.
  • RouterOS Level 6 : Runs RouterOS with License Level 6, giving serious MikroTik routing, firewall, VPN, queue, and network management capability.
  • Rackmount Ready : 443 x 199 x 44 mm rackmount form factor with included rackmount bracket, fastening set, and power cords for professional deployment.
