The MikroTik CRS518-16XS-2XQ-RM is a modern networking tool designed for large data centres and enterprises. Building on the CRS504's features, the CRS518 boasts 2x 100 Gigabit QSFP28 ports essential for tasks such as cloud syncing and real-time analytics. Additionally, the switch has 16x 25 Gigabit SFP28 ports, making it suitable for connecting a variety of devices, from servers to workstations.With 100 Gigabit speeds, users can experience reduced latency and faster access to services. This can be particularly useful for tasks like large data uploads, streaming, and real-time communication. For instance, data centres can manage servers more efficiently, and ISPs can deliver better internet services. The switch is also beneficial for businesses wanting efficient intra-office networks or private cloud setups.The CRS518 offers more than just high-speed connectivity; it brings versatility to your network setup. One of its standout features is its backward compatibility, which allows the 25 Gigabit ports to connect seamlessly with 10 Gigabit and 1 Gigabit SFP devices. This adaptability means that, whether you're integrating newer devices or continuing to utilize older equipment, the switch serves as a unifying hub, ensuring all parts of your network remain functional and relevant. For businesses, this translates to cost savings, as there's no immediate need to replace older equipment, and it facilitates smoother transitions during tech upgrades.The QCA9531 chipset acts as the device's main processor. Operating at a speed of 650 MHz and backed by 64 MB of RAM, this System-on-Chip (SoC) is tailored specifically for networking tasks. It manages the overall operations of the CRS518, from basic functions like interface communications to more intricate tasks like executing network protocols and managing system-level functions.The Marvell Prestera Aldrin2 switch chip specializes in the swift and precise handling and optimization of data packets. While the QCA9531 manages the overarching system functions, the Prestera Aldrin2 chip focuses on data traffic management. It ensures that data packets are routed or switched with utmost accuracy and speed, offering rapid data transfers within the CRS518.The CRS518 is crafted specifically for indoor environments and is optimized for RackMount installations, ensuring it integrates effortlessly into professional settings. It is equipped with dual hot-swap power supplies, which handle a broad input voltage range of 100-240V. This feature ensures continuous power and minimal downtime. Additionally, the CRS518 is characterized by its energy efficiency, consuming up to 45W and extending to 77W when fully equipped.The CRS518 stands out for its advanced networking capabilities. It supports VLAN, offering enhanced security and traffic segmentation. L3 hardware offloaded routing accelerates packet processing, ensuring swift data movement. The device also incorporates ACL for advanced network security, LACP for improved connection speeds, MLAG for redundancy and data flow optimization, Jumbo frames for enhanced data transfer rates, and IGMP/MLD snooping for optimized multicast traffic delivery.FeaturesHardware Features:•Product code: CRS518-16XS-2XQ-RM•Switch chip model: 98DX8525•CPU: QCA9531 650 MHz•CPU architecture: MIPSBE•CPU core count: 1•Size of RAM: 64 MB•RAM type: DDR2•Storage: 16 MB, Flash•Number of 100M Ethernet ports: 1•Number of 25G SFP28 ports: 16•Number of 100G QSFP28 ports: 2•USB port: 2•Operating system: Only v7 RouterOS•Dimensions: 443 x 265 x 44.5 mm•Operating temperature: -40°C to +70°CPowering•Number of AC inputs: 2•Nominal voltage: 12 V•Nominal current: 12.5 A•AC input range: 100-240 V•Max power consumption (without attachments): 45 W•Max power consumption: 77 W

  • Return of merchandise (RMA) and Warranty

    We want you to be happy with the purchase you have made from us. If you are not completely satisfied, you may return the product to us and we will either refund, credit, repair/replace it, subject to the below terms and conditions. 

    You can return purchases for a refund (excl shipping). Please notify us within 7 days and ensure item is ready maximum 10 days after delivery date.

    Please ensure to log your return request within 7 days of receipt of your item. Please ensure to select the correct reason for return:

    - Changed my mind / Item exchange

    - Faulty on arrival

    - Incorrect item received

    All items are covered by a 12 month warranty (unless otherwise stated) which will be honoured directly by GeeWiz. All products will either be replaced/repaired/refunded depending on stock availability. Products will require evaluation by GeeWiz before a warranty claim can be accepted.

    Should the item being returned for assessment be found to be in good working order, unfortunately, there will be a collection fee that will apply.

    The collection fees are as follows:

    - For returns on items that were sent with free shipping: R198

    - For returns that had a surcharge, the same surcharge will apply for collection.

    Please log your return on your account, under the returns manager.

    We do not reimburse your fee to ship to us, but we will pay for return shipping if the item is subject to replacement. If the item you wish to return was ordered incorrectly / is no longer required / you have changed your mind, there is a collection fee that will be charged (please refer to the above) and this will be deducted from the refund amount once the supplier has credited us. Please note GeeWiz will only cover return shipping of a faulty unit within 6 months of purchase, after which, a shipping fee (starting from R198) will be applicable to you for the return of the unit.

    Any disputes relating to ordered items being short/incorrectly shipped will only be entertained if reported to GeeWiz within 3 days of delivery/collection.

    Refunds are subject to inspection of item(s) - in some cases, items will need to be sent to supplier for evaluation and testing. This can take up to 15 working days. Once a refund has been approved, this may take 3 - 5 business days to be processed.

    ALL returns are subject to up to a 30% restocking fee if item is no longer in BRAND NEW condition or if item seal/packaging has been broken.

    Please re-package safely and include all original product packaging.  

    All software products are unfortunately not eligible for credit or refund once purchased.

    After the 6-month period, you will no longer be eligible and won't be able to receive a refund. We can however replace or repair depending on the outcome after our team of professionals has inspected the product.

    Should a warranty sticker not be present on an item, the warranty is immediately null and void.

    Batteries are covered under warranty, but please note that GEL, AGM and LEAD ACID have limited cycle runs. These are typically around 200 cycles and may run out before the end of the warranty. Once the cycles have been depleted, it means the battery has reached the end of life and will no longer be a warranty claim.

    GeeWiz or its affiliates are not responsible for damage or loss of any kind that may occur as a result of using or misusing any product purchased from us.
