Description

We have significantly enhanced performance based on your insights from the MikroTik User Meetings to develop an ideal home lab router that's not only compact and powerful but also offers various power options and efficient cooling. The RB5009 stands out with its impressive features, including 9 wired ports and a full-sized USB 3.0 port. Among these ports, seven are Gigabit Ethernet, one is 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet, and the last is a 10G SFP+ cage, all linked to a robust Marvell Amethyst family switch-chip that operates on a 10 Gbps full-duplex line connecting to the Marvell Armada Quad-core ARMv8 CPU running at 1.4 GHz. Both the CPU and the switch-chip are centrally positioned on the board's underside, allowing the case to function effectively as a large heat-sink. Each board is equipped with 1GB of DDR4 RAM and 1GB of NAND storage, making it a versatile choice. This strategic combination of ports and components offers nearly double the performance relative to similar products in our lineup, particularly in scenarios involving heavy CPU usage. Furthermore, users can expect a seamless experience with enhanced reliability and performance tailored for demanding home lab environments.

Description

The hEX PoE lite is a compact five-port Ethernet router housed in a plastic casing, featuring a USB 2.0 port and PoE output, along with a 650MHz CPU and 64MB RAM while running RouterOS L4. This device allows ports 2-5 to supply power to other PoE-compatible devices at the same voltage as the unit itself, reducing the clutter of power adapters and cables significantly. Each port can deliver a maximum current of 1A, and the Ethernet ports are designed with shielding for enhanced reliability. Its affordability and user-friendly nature make it an attractive option for small office/home office (SOHO) setups, seamlessly integrating into various environments with its sleek and compact design. The hEX PoE lite comes with a preinstalled and licensed operating system, eliminating the need for a separate purchase, ensuring it is ready for immediate use upon acquisition. Additionally, the device includes complimentary software updates throughout its lifespan or for a minimum of five years from the purchase date, offering ongoing support. By providing PoE power through its Ethernet ports, this router eliminates the need for extra PoE injectors, streamlining the setup of network devices. With its versatile features and ease of use, the hEX PoE lite stands out as a practical solution for users seeking efficient networking capabilities.
