It is inexpensive, tiny, and simple to use, but it also has a very powerful two-core 880MHz CPU and 256MB RAM, allowing it to accommodate all of RouterOS's sophisticated setups.
It supports IPsec hardware encryption (470 Mbps) and The Dude server package, and it has a microSD card for enhanced r/w speed for file storage and Dude. Despite its compact and affordable design, this device delivers enterprise-grade performance and flexibility. With hardware-accelerated IPsec encryption and support for advanced routing, firewall, bandwidth management, and monitoring features, it is well-suited for secure and high-performance network deployments. The microSD slot enhances storage capabilities, making it ideal for running The Dude network monitoring system and managing larger configurations efficiently in both SOHO and professional environments.
Provides fast wired connectivity for LAN devices.
Runs MikroTik’s RouterOS for advanced routing, firewall, and network features.
Small form factor ideal for home or small office networking.
Supports powering via DC jack or Passive PoE (depending on model).
