Your Network, Your Rules: Maximum Control with RouterOS
Forget the limitations of conventional consumer routers! With the MikroTik hAP RB951Ui-2nD, you get not only a powerful WiFi Router but also full control over your Network thanks to the pre-installed RouterOS (license level 4). This operating system is the heart of all MikroTik Routers and offers you an unparalleled depth of configuration options. Whether you want to set up complex firewall rules, establish secure VPN connections, or perform detailed Network management – your possibilities are virtually limitless. Dive into the world of professional network technology and design your home network or small office (SOHO) exactly to your specifications.
Flexibility Meets Efficiency: PoE and USB for Smart Solutions
The MikroTik hAP RB951Ui-2nD shines with its exceptional flexibility in power supply and connectivity. Thanks to the innovative PoE In/Out function, you can not only power the device via passive PoE (Ether1) but also supply power to other PoE-capable devices via the fifth Ethernet port. Imagine powering your IP camera or another WiFi Access Point directly from the router – this saves cables and power adapters! The integrated USB port is another highlight: simply connect a 3G/4G modem to create a reliable backup internet connection or even use the router as the primary internet access in remote areas. This way, you always stay online, even if your main connection fails.
Compact Power for Your 2.4 GHz WiFi
Despite its compact size, the MikroTik hAP RB951Ui-2nD delivers impressive performance. It is your ideal WiFi Access Point for stable and fast 2.4 GHz WiFi according to the 802.11b/g/n standard. With its Dual-Chain Wireless technology, it achieves a maximum data rate of 300 Mbit/s, which is more than sufficient for most applications in your home network or small office (SOHO). The five 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports also offer you the option to connect your most important devices such as PCs, servers, or smart TVs via cable, ensuring maximum stability and speed. Experience smooth browsing, streaming, and working.
Your Reliable Partner for Every Scenario
Whether you want to expand your existing network, create a reliable backup internet connection, or set up a secure guest WiFi – the MikroTik hAP RB951Ui-2nD is perfectly equipped for a variety of application scenarios. Use it as a central WiFi Router that not only provides wireless connectivity but also powers additional devices via its PoE-Out port. Thanks to the USB port, you can switch to a mobile internet connection at any time, which is particularly crucial for remote workplaces or small branches. With RouterOS, you can also set up separate guest WiFi networks with bandwidth limitation and captive portal to protect your main network. This versatile Access Point adapts to your needs.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance
- Pro: Versatile power supply and PoE-Out: The device can be powered via the DC jack or passive PoE (PoE-In) and additionally offers a passive PoE-Out function on Port 5 to power other devices. This increases installation flexibility and reduces cable requirements.
- Pro: Extensive RouterOS functionality: Equipped with MikroTik's RouterOS (license level 4), the WiFi Router offers a wealth of advanced network management functions such as routing, firewall rules, VPN server/client, VLANs, bandwidth management, and detailed monitoring, making it very powerful for advanced users and small businesses.
- Pro: Compact design and easy initial configuration: The small, discreet casing with wall mounting options fits well into any environment. It is pre-configured, so for basic internet use, only the internet cable and power supply need to be connected.
- Note: Limited Ethernet speed (10/100 Mbps): All five Ethernet ports only support 10/100 Mbps, which can be a bottleneck for networks with high data traffic or Gigabit internet connections. Gigabit Ethernet ports are missing.
- Note: No 5 GHz WiFi: The device exclusively supports 2.4 GHz WiFi (802.11b/g/n). In environments with many 2.4 GHz devices or high radio interference, this can lead to performance limitations, as the less congested 5 GHz band cannot be used.
