The ultimate heavy duty home lab router with USB 3.0, 1G and 2.5G Ethernet and 10G SFP+ cage. Four such new routers can be installed in a single 1U rack mountable space! Unparalleled processing power in such a small size.

Double the usual performance: based on the feedback we received at the MikroTik user meetings, we created the perfect home lab router: compact, high-performance, with multiple power supply options and efficient cooling. The RB5009 has it all, and even more!

The card has 9 wired ports and one full-size USB 3.0. Seven of the ports are Gigabit Ethernet, another is 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet, and the last is a 10G SFP+ cage. Each port is connected to a high-performance Marvell Amethyst family switch chip with a 10 Gbps full-duplex line to the Marvell Armada quad-core ARMv8 1.4 GHz CPU. Both the CPU and the switch chip are located at the bottom of the board - so the case acts as a huge heatsink!

The boards come with 1GB of DDR4 RAM and 1GB of NAND storage. This combination of ports and components provides almost twice the performance of our other similarly shaped products in high CPU load configurations.

With a simple set of mounting accessories, you can mount FOUR of these routers in a single 1U rack-mountable space! No more server room Tetris, just pure productivity.
