Network Bottlenecks? Not Anymore!
Is your network growing, data volumes increasing, and your old Gigabit switches reaching their limits? Especially when multiple users simultaneously access central resources like servers or network storage, frustrating delays can quickly occur. Standard switches often don't provide the necessary bandwidth for demanding applications and modern infrastructures, which can slow down your team's productivity or the efficiency of your home network.
The Smart Solution for Your High-Performance Network
The MikroTik CRS326-24G-2S+RM is the answer to your network challenges. With its 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports, you can effortlessly provide all your end devices such as PCs, laptops, IP phones, or surveillance cameras with stable and fast connectivity. But that's not all: The two integrated 10G SFP+ ports are your gateway to the world of high-speed networks. Connect your servers, NAS, or main router here and effectively eliminate bottlenecks to ensure smooth data transfer for every single port.
Maximum Flexibility Thanks to Dual Boot and Layer-3 Capabilities
What truly sets this switch apart is its unique Dual Boot function. You decide which operating system best suits your requirements: The lean SwOS offers all basic Layer-2 switching functions via an intuitive web interface, ideal for quick and uncomplicated setups with VLANs, MAC filters, and port mirroring. However, if you need advanced routing functions, IPsec, or detailed firewall rules, simply boot the full-fledged RouterOS (Level 5). This flexibility makes the CRS326-24G-2S+RM an extremely versatile tool for any network environment. And the best part: Thanks to its passive cooling concept, it operates absolutely silently, making it perfect for use in offices or living spaces.
Investment in the Future of Your Network
With the MikroTik CRS326-24G-2S+RM, you invest in a powerful and future-proof network. The combination of numerous Gigabit ports and fast 10G SFP+ uplinks ensures that your network won't falter even with increasing demands. The choice between SwOS and RouterOS gives you the freedom to adapt the functionality precisely to your needs, without compromising on performance. Experience a network that grows with you and doesn't slow you down.

Häufig gestellte Fragen (FAQ)
What does the Dual Boot feature mean for the MikroTik CRS326-24G-2S+RM?
The Dual Boot feature allows you to choose between two operating systems: SwOS (SwitchOS) for simple Layer 2 switching functions via a web interface, or RouterOS (Level 5) for advanced Layer 3 routing and firewall capabilities. You can select the system at startup, adapting its functionality to your specific network requirements.
Can I also use 1.25G SFP modules with the CRS326-24G-2S+RM?
Yes, both SFP+ ports on the MikroTik CRS326-24G-2S+RM are backward compatible. This means you can use both 10G SFP+ modules for maximum speed and 1.25G SFP modules for older or less bandwidth-intensive connections.
Is the MikroTik CRS326-24G-2S+RM fanless and therefore silent?
Yes, the MikroTik CRS326-24G-2S+RM features a passive cooling system. This means it operates without a fan, making it completely silent. This makes it ideal for use in offices, living spaces, or other noise-sensitive environments.
What management options does the switch offer?
The CRS326-24G-2S+RM offers extensive management options. In SwOS mode, you can manage it via an intuitive web GUI, utilizing features like VLANs, port mirroring, MAC filters, and broadcast storm control. In RouterOS mode, advanced Layer 3 functions, SNMP, Access Control Lists (ACLs), and much more are additionally available.
For which application scenarios is this switch particularly suitable?
This switch is ideal for small to medium-sized businesses, offices, or demanding home networks that require a high number of Gigabit Ethernet ports while benefiting from fast 10G uplinks. It is perfectly suited for consolidating network devices, as a core switch for workgroups, or for connecting servers and NAS systems with high bandwidth. The Dual Boot feature also makes it extremely adaptable for various network architectures.
