MikroTik RB960PGS hEX PoE Gigabit Router
MikroTik RouterBOARD RB960PGS (hEX PoE)Overview
hEX PoE is a five port Gigabit Ethernet router for locations where wireless connectivity is not required. The device has a USB 2.0 port and an SFP port for adding optical fibre connectivity. Ports 2–5 can power other PoE capable devices with the same voltage as applied to the unit.
- 5 × Gigabit
- PoE-out × 4
- SFP port
- 800 MHz CPU
- 128 MB RAM
- RouterOS L4
Power and performance
It is affordable, small and easy to use, but at the same time comes with a very powerful 800 MHz CPU, capable of all the advanced configurations that RouterOS supports.
PoE out
Fewer power adapters and cables to worry about. Maximum current is 1 A per port if input voltage is 12–30 V, or 450 mA at 31–57 V. The Ethernet ports are shielded.
At a glance
- PoE-out on ports 2–5, passing through the input voltage
- SFP port for optical fibre uplink
- 800 MHz CPU with 128 MB of RAM
- Wide 12–57 V input range
- USB 2.0 port for storage or a modem
- Ships with a 24 V 2.5 A power adapter
RB960PGS can power 802.3af/at devices if a 48 V DC input is used — the unit ships with a 24 V supply, so a 48 V adapter must be purchased separately. The unit provides a maximum of 450 mA per port regardless of device power class; it does not support powered-device classification.
