Mikrotik CRS328-24P-4S+RM 24 Port Gigabit Ethernet Router

I'm not going to say much about the features, or os, or anything like that because there's plenty of full-length reviews elsewhere on the internet. Suffice to say, while they're loaded with L3 functions you don't want to use them as such without destroying forwarding performance. For me, I have a number of Mikrotik devices and while the CLI is "interesting", they do the job reliably, cheaply, silently, and while sipping the power. Replaced an equivalent Juniper switch with one of these and the difference in power consumption is amazing. This thing's going to pay for itself in under a year!

Für den heimgebrauch super. Die Bedienung ist etwas umständlich und man sollte schon umfangreiches Netzwerk Verständnis haben. Für Otto Normal ist das nichts. MikroTik gibt einem alle Freiheiten nimmt einem das Denken und Verstehen aber nicht ab.

Super switch fourni de poe + sur tout ces ports Comme d’habitude mikrotik ne me déçois pas ! Point négatif : Livré abîmé.

The Mikrotik CRS328-24P-4S+RM is an outstanding upgrade, successfully replacing my aging 15-year-old Netgear switch and immediately bringing noticeable enhancements to my network. The core benefit is the massive boost in speed and overall network stability. Data transfers are significantly faster, and I've experienced far fewer dropouts compared to the old hardware. The inclusion of four 10Gbps SFP+ ports was a game-changer for connectivity, allowing me to easily establish a 10Gbps uplink to my main Mikrotik router using a DAC cable. A major advantage of this device is the integrated PoE functionality on all 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports. This feature immediately improved my power management and organization, allowing me to remove almost all external PoE injectors from my rack, which is a massive plus. In terms of physical attributes, the size is standard 1U rackmount, fitting perfectly. The noise level is surprisingly low for a device with this level of functionality and PoE capabilities, which is excellent for an office or home setup. Regarding heat resistance, the unit has maintained stable operating temperatures, even under moderate PoE load. The only consideration for new users is the required setup; for those new to Mikrotik, be aware that it needs configuration before full deployment. So far, however, I have encountered no immediate cons, and the switch is performing exceptionally well. It's a robust, feature-rich device that vastly improves network performance and organization.
