The Wi-Fi version of CRS418... with our strongest 4x4 MIMO Wi-Fi 6! L3 HW offloading, quad-core 2.2 GHz ARM CPU, 16x Gigabit Ethernet ports + a Gigabit management port with a direct CPU line, 2x 10G SFP+ ports, PoE-out.
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!
Wi-Fi where it matters2CRS418-8P-8G-2S+5axQ2axQ-RM The all-in-one switch/routing champion also delivers 4×4 MIMO dual-band Wi-Fi 6 – for fast, reliable connectivity wherever you need it. The perfect solution to simplify basement server room setups or medium-sized offices on a tight budget – now you don’t need to carry a separate access point!
We know rackmounts are not famous for great wireless coverage. That’s why the CRS418 Wi-Fi edition includes dedicated holes in the back for pigtails, so you can place antennas outside the case if needed.
