MikroTik L009UiGS-RM Dual-Core IPQ-5018 800 MHz ARM 64bit 512MB DDR3L 8xGbE + 1x1G SFP Router w/ 1x24V PoE The legendary RB2011 product line has provided affordable, flexible, and robust connectivity for over a decade. In fact, it was our very first router with SFP. Finally, itu2019s time for an upgrade. But donu2019t worry: weu2019ve kept and improved all the key elements and features of the beloved RB2011. Even the red color scheme and the appealing price! There are three main reasons to choose the L009: better performance, more features, and some interesting quality-of-life improvements. Letu2019s start with the raw power and performance improvements. L009 features a powerful dual-core ARM CPU . It offers significant improvement when it comes to routing and filtering, complex firewall rules, IPsec hardware encryption, and various advanced RouterOS features. ARM CPU architecture provides significant advantages over older MIPS-based devices. Like using all the latest Linux Kernel features. Or implementing your own container projects. The combination of a modern ARM CPU and a full-sized USB port is perfect for running custom container projects. You could run a Pi-hole adblock on this router, for example. Or you could use the USB to add an LTE modem of your choice. Imagination is the real limit here. L009 is up to 4 times faster than RB2011 in most cases and setups, from simple fast path routing to complex bridge filters. And L009 IPsec hardware encryption ensures lower CPU usage without measurable performance degradation compared to the regular driver. You can expect around 60-90 Mbps throughput using a 1400 byte packet size. All the ports are now Gigabit Ethernet ports. Thereu2019s PoE-in on the first port. You can use it instead of the DC jack to power the unit. And thereu2019s PoE-Out* on the last port u2013 for powering other devices. Another helpful addition is an SFP cage that supports both Gigabit and 2.5 Gigabit connectivity . We have tested a variety of MikroTik SFP modules and cables that support higher speeds u2013 the 2.5G capability makes a sysadminu2019s life so much easieru2013 thereu2019s a console port for quick direct-access configuration! At the heart of it all we have a speedy Marvell Peridot Switchchip which offers an impressive 2.5 Gigabit full duplex connection to the CPU to all the ports except Ether1. The first port has its own Gigabit full duplex line to the CPU. That means u2013 countless configurations with no bottlenecks! The new enclosure is a spectacular innovation on its own. Itu2019s the same form-factor you might have seen with our highly sought-after RB5009 devices. It has several extremely useful properties. First of all, the case acts as a massive heat-sink , protecting your setups from overheating. But hereu2019s the fun part: it comes with everything you need to fit up to four of these routers in a single 1U rackmount space. Here at MikroTik, weu2019re the world champions of server room tetris. So hereu2019s our latest lifehack for the most efficient server rooms: grab an RB5009 with PoE-out ports. And mount it together with seven L009 routers in just two 1U rackmount spaces. Youu2019ll become a living legend among system administrators, setting a new example of efficient space management and simple, reliable powering. This RM version of L009 is almost the same as the IN version u2013 except for the 2.4 GHz wireless. It comes with all the necessary mounting accessories and allows you to cut costs even further. RB2011 will always remain a networking legend, but itu2019s time to take it up a notch. And the L009 product line is the perfect upgrade that will help you save time, money, and server room space like never before!
