Mikrotik CRS354-48G-4S+2Q+RM network switch L2 Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000)
Product Overview
The MikroTik CRS354-48G-4S+2Q+RM Switch is an enterprise-grade, non-PoE 54-port wire-speed Layer 2 and Layer 3 smart managed rackmount switch. Designed for high-density corporate access networks, server aggregation racks, WISP core distribution, and data center edge environments, it is driven by a Qualcomm QCA9531 CPU @ 650 MHz, 128MB RAM, 32MB flash storage, and a heavy-duty Marvell 98DX3257 switch chip.
Housed in a 1U rackmount chassis with integrated dual redundant AC power supplies, the MikroTik CRS354-48G-4S+2Q+RM Switch features 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports (10/100/1000 Mbps), four 10G SFP+ optical cages, and two ultra-fast 40G QSFP+ backbone ports. Equipped with MikroTik’s signature Dual Boot system, system administrators can seamlessly select between lightweight SwOS for web-based switching or full RouterOS Level 5 for advanced Layer 3 routing, VLAN management, and traffic engineering.
