CRS418-8P-8G-2S+RM
You wanted a switch that could do more. So we built one that does everything! 16x (+1) Gigabit Ethernet ports (8x with PoE-out), dual 10G uplinks, and a powerful quad-core 2.2 GHz ARM CPU. Powerful enough to replace most small/medium office routers, ~3x faster than a CRS320 or a CRS328… and for a better price!
Why settle for just a simple switch when you can have PoE-out, high-speed fiber uplinks, USB storage compatibility, advanced network control/monitoring, and enough processing power even for some routing or L3 HW offloading… in a single 1U device and for the best price on the market?
The CRS418-8P-8G-2S+RM combines 16 Gigabit Ethernet ports (eight of them with PoE-out!), two 10G SFP+ cages, USB 3 connectivity, and a powerful quad-core 2.2 GHz CPU in a clean, durable rackmount enclosure. Also, there’s a Gigabit management port with a direct CPU line.
This is a serious upgrade for anyone looking to replace a jungle of devices with one smart multitasker – built for real routing workloads, high-bandwidth uplinks, and clean cable management. Whether you’re powering up access points and CCTV cameras, running a fast NAS with a bunch of modern workstations, or managing the routing in your mid-sized office, CRS418 handles it all with ease – and on a budget!
CRS418-8P-8G-2S+RM is more than a switch. It’s a real multi-tasking champion that keeps your network lean and your server room clean.
