Best product I have ever reviewed, I recommend it to everyone!

Impressions from all Mikrotik products are always positive, from the direct minuses of such I know that IP TV is difficult to set up on them or in some cases even impossible (for whom this is an important point, I advise you not to buy a device right away, but at least check whether it will work). Also, some adapters are their weak points, ie. It happens that they fail, personally I have not had this yet. I also remember that it was not in this router model, in another, that he could not power the Ubiquiti cloud key via PoE, that is, he could not give him the necessary voltage, but the Ubiquiti UniFi AP-AC-LR plates keep normally.

Pros

1. Price (at the moment for such a professional piece of iron 7000 is not money) 2. USB (most likely, the developers heard the requests, and I got a model with a normal standard USB port, and not, as it was before, a micro-usb and an adapter to it) 3. Physical ports (there is an SFP socket for optics, from the 1st to the 5th they are gigabit, the first port is used for PoE-In, you can power the router itself, from the 6th to the 10th they are 100mb / s, the tenth port is used for PoE out, you can power something , I have a Ubiquiti UniFi AP powered at work, you can use an IP camera for example) 4. Flexible settings (the same Winbox to help) 5. Stable operation (24/7, as they say, set it up and forget it, in principle, this applies to all Mikrotiks) 6. Metal case (not as flimsy as plastic) 7. License (5th level, gives the right to connect up to 500 devices at the same time, and I'm sure it will keep them stable and without glitches)

Cons

1. Packaging (I’m already used to it, opening it you always know that what’s inside will not let you down, but it’s still not presentable, cheap and scarce, there are no screws for mounting on the wall, no instructions) 2. Pinout (an incomprehensible thing for me, a router on legs, well, logically, it should look at you "face", but then what for the ports are in front of it, the router is not intended for mounting in a server rack, there are no mounts to it, at least in they definitely don’t have a complete set, it would be more logical to make all these giblets from behind, and only display an indication on the face and a USB port) 3. Non-removable antennas (well, these are nitpicks, in general, most Mikrotiks have antennas built into the inside, they could implement it this way, and even if the router increased a little in size, it’s not scary at all) 4. Screen (why I really need it so much, I can’t fit it, it helps a lot in monitoring, but who will be staring at it, secondly, it affects the price of the device itself, in general, I think it’s just a rudimentary organ of the device) 5. Adapter (raises doubts about its reliability) 6. Eye-burning blue diode (the expression is not mine, but I completely agree with it) 7. There is no network at 5GHz (USB means they replaced it with a standard one, that is, they were able to upgrade it, and what prevents adding 5GHz to it is very important nowadays)

With its pros. except the system administrator, no one will spoil it Different cons: got either defective or they are all like that (about the model), but it did not work stably reset settings
