MikroTik CRS328-24P-4S+RM – 24-Port Gigabit PoE Switch with 4 SFP+ for SMB / Enterprise Networks

MikroTik CRS328-24P-4S+RM is a PoE network switch for business environments, featuring 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports and four 10 Gbps SFP+ uplinks, built for mid-size and enterprise networks where centralized PoE power delivery and high-speed aggregation are core infrastructure requirements. Commonly deployed as an access or aggregation switch in distributed business networks, it consolidates connectivity and PoE management into a single 1U rackmount unit.

All 24 ports support 802.3af/at PoE with up to 30 W per port and a total PoE budget of 450 W, enabling direct connection of wireless access points, IP cameras, and VoIP phones without external injectors. The four SFP+ ports deliver 10 Gbps uplinks over fiber or Ethernet modules, keeping latency minimal in high-traffic environments. The built-in 500 W power supply eliminates the need for separate switch power infrastructure.

CRS328-24P-4S+RM runs RouterOS or SwOS via dual-boot, selectable at any time. RouterOS provides Layer 3 routing, VPN, firewall, and centralized management for complex distributed networks. SwOS offers a streamlined switching-only interface for simpler deployments. The switch integrates natively into existing MikroTik environments and supports management via Winbox, SSH, and web interface.

Recommended for medium and large offices centralizing PoE delivery for wireless and surveillance equipment, for distributed enterprise networks requiring 10 Gbps uplink capacity, for ISPs building access-layer infrastructure, and for environments where per-port power monitoring and redundancy are operational requirements. The 1U rackmount form factor ensures straightforward deployment in standard network cabinets.
