🔌 MikroTik CRS312-4C+8XG-RM: High-Performance 12-Port 10G Switch with Dual Power Supply Review

Fast delivery, good price for a good product. I installed it on my corporate network as the main file server and RDP server. According to my test utility, this reduced the network drive I/O time by more than 50%.

Arrived quickly, well packaged, the price was right and it worked as described. You guys are a nice little agency! What a fantastic product. Where else can I get a 10GBaseT+NBaseT connection at this price, even with your own complex operating system. :)

Good price. Very fast - better than 10GB speed. I thought it would be a big learning curve, but it wasn't at all. For a design studio dealing with very large files that almost different people are working on.

I was a bit skeptical based on the STH review of this switch with fan noise. However, I really needed a 10G switch and didn't want to mess with my satisfying Mikrotik ecosystem, so I took the plunge. In the latest RouterOS firmware, this switch is silent! Pooh! Of course at the moment I only have 1 device using the 10G port while it has a 2x10G LAG uplink to another Mikrotik. It's not enough to burden him. Still, I'm happy with the performance of the fans at this low load, and even if they…

While this switch is powerful, it is not easy to configure and does not follow common industry standard network setup nomenclature. If you want that, you need to prepare some manuals and watch some YouTube videos to see how to set it up. One of the biggest problems is that the switch has many features that require a processor to work, basically everything except switching. The problem is that the switch only has a 1 gigabit connection from the switch's 10 gigabit ports to the CPU. That means if

This is by far the best switch I have ever bought. It completely blasts the door of Netgear and other similar switches. To be honest this switch could have cost more than double what I paid for it and it would still be worth every penny spent. Let's start with the installation first. There's nothing easier than just plugging it into the wall and plugging in the ethernet cables - it just works with no issues. However, once you step into the Switch, you'll see a TON of options. It's actually a…

Great level 3 switch! The L3 switch is a switch with routing capabilities, so its performance as a switch is equal or better than that of a Layer 2 switch with similar capabilities; Routing Performance Difference: Its performance is slightly lower than a pure router (with the same features). This is because the motherboard hardware of L3 switches is designed for high-performance switches. Router motherboard hardware is designed to perform routing tasks, so a router is better suited for these…

I paid too much for this. $630 if available elsewhere on preorder for $500. I didn't want to wait. I was thinking of buying two but I'm very glad I didn't. While I'm happy with these devices, fan noise is significant. Sounds like a jet plane. I'll try updating the firmware that people have reported fixes the issue. I almost bought two of these panels but not at this price and while I will need a few more of these panels in the future this makes the loud noise unlikely. I will choose a…
