Mikrotik RB5009UPr+S+IN - with RouterOS L5 license, inner box
This version of the RB5009 has all the bells and whistles of the previous model: Gigabit Ethernet, 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet and a 10 Gigabit SFP+ cage for fiber connectivity. It has the speed, the power and the durability. But this time, we've added PoE-in and PoE-out on all eight Ethernet ports. Combined with the 2-pin connector and DC connector, you get 10 different forms of power. Redundant dual power supplies would usually take your uninterrupted uptime to the next level. RB5009UPr+S+IN takes it a step above that!
All power supply options support a wide voltage range from 24 to 57 V. However, the voltages cannot be mixed. If you are using PoE-out to power other devices, the board will choose the source with the highest voltage (DC socket or 2-pin connector) to power them.
Each PoE output port can supply up to 25 W of power. All ports combined are limited to 130 W, which should be sufficient for most configurations. You can specify the maximum power available from your power supplies manually, if required. When it comes to PoE output functions, the new RB5009 can swap blows with our legendary PoE switches: CRS354 and CRS328. In the smallest possible form factor and at the best price on the market!
So what exactly happens if there is a problem with one of your power sources? Here's a quick example: you have 24 V at the DC connector, 48 V at the 2-pin connector and 57 V at the PoE input. The board itself is powered by the higher voltage input: the PoE input. If there is a problem, the RB5009 will revert to the second highest voltage: the 2-pin connector. And if that fails, there is a 24 V option on the DC connector.
What about PoE-out devices? Again, the higher voltage wins. PoE-out devices will draw power from the 48 V source on the 2-pin connector. If that fails, the 24 V at the DC connector comes into play. The board will always reserve 20 watts for power. If there is not enough power for all PoE output ports, it will start disabling the ones with the lowest priority. You can set the port priority manually.
This tiny form factor shines anywhere - from confined offices and research facilities to huge corporate server rooms. And don't forget, you can mount FOUR of these routers in a single 1U rackmount space.
With the new RB5009, we want to empower all small and medium-sized ISPs that are always looking for the most cost-effective and robust solutions. It is a perfect complement to our previous GPEN devices: a product line designed to replace expensive GPON solutions.
With so many power options and a durable metal housing, the new RB5009 redefines affordable reliability.
