MikroTik hAP be3 Professional Router for SMB Networks

MikroTik hAP be³ Media is a tri-band Wi-Fi 7 router for the modern home, designed for superior wireless performance, ultra-fast connectivity, and full smart home automation support. It is deployed in households with many connected devices, intensive home office setups, and local smart home configurations where a single device must simultaneously manage streaming, storage, automation, and network security. It combines tri-band Wi-Fi 7, an integrated Matter/Thread radio, Bluetooth 5.4, five 2.5G Ethernet ports, and container support — becoming the media and automation hub of the home without dependency on external servers or cloud subscriptions.

hAP be³ Media delivers Wi-Fi 7 coverage across all three bands: 2.4 GHz for extended range and universal compatibility, 5 GHz with throughput up to 2882 Mbps for primary devices, and 6 GHz with throughput up to 5764 Mbps on clean spectrum — eliminating congestion in dense environments with dozens of simultaneously connected devices. MLO support in TR-MLMR AP mode combines multiple bands for reduced latency and stable connections for VR headsets, workstations, and simultaneous 4K/8K streaming. Five 2.5G Ethernet ports eliminate bottlenecks for ultra-fast ISPs, NAS servers, and network equipment, while the quad-core IPQ-5322 processor and 2 GB DDR4 RAM ensure fluid performance under multiple simultaneous workloads.

The integrated Matter/Thread radio and Bluetooth 5.4 turn the router into a local smart home automation hub — without additional bridges or mandatory cloud dependency. Three USB ports (1× USB-C + 2× USB-A 3.0) and a microSD slot allow connection of external storage for backups, photos, video surveillance, or a private family cloud. Container support with one-click setup in WinBox enables running custom dashboards, self-hosted password managers, local AI assistants, or custom services directly on the router. RouterOS v7 (License Level 6) provides advanced firewall, multiple VPNs, BGP, advanced routing, and the MikroTik BackToHome application for fast large file sharing — with no subscriptions or recurring costs.

Recommended for homes with many devices and intensive home office setups requiring simultaneous Wi-Fi 7 and 2.5G Ethernet, local smart home configurations with Matter/Thread without cloud dependencies, and users running self-hosted services — password managers, dashboards, NAS backups, or private family cloud. Also suited for high-resolution 4K/8K media streaming, VR headsets and workstations with high bandwidth requirements, and any configuration where full control of the network and personal data without external servers is a priority.
