MikroTikCRS326-24S+2Q+RM

All we use is MikroTik as they offer a very rich feature set for the money. They boot in seconds, we got rid of the ubiquity stuff as even a simple switch takes minutes to boot. Performance is rock solid. There will be a little learning curve using their software, which i like way more than others. There are tons of tutorials and it's well documented, and did not take that long to know where everything is in Winbox as it's like it's own little OS like using windows.

good produc

Great little switch for the price. One can't find 40G trunks at this price anywhere! Unlike other reviewers I had no issue with transceiver compatibility. 10GTek 40G and ipolex 10G-T transceivers all worked at rated speeds. My issue (and the 3 star rating) was due to a dead power supply. Thankfully it comes with a redundant pair. Now waiting for the replacement. Definitely upgrade the firmware when you get it. One nit - the manual is online only and it looks to be a series of Confluence pages. Hard to archive in case the company goes under, need to dump each page to a PDF...ugh. One future improvement - 4 vs 2 40G ports would be nicer :).

Fantastic value for money. Bought this switch to partially upgrade my network to 40 Gbe. In one QSFP+ port I have an optical transceiver from FS.com, in the other I have a DAC cable.This switch has issues with module compatibility: I could not get the optical transceiver from FS.com recognized unless I booted in RouterOS. SwOS recognized the module but could not complete a link. I could also not get a DAC from FS.com to be properly recognized at 40 Gbps. I could only force it to 10 Gbps, and then only one lane was used. I then replaces the DAC from FS.com with one from Wiitek, and that one got recognized instantly.The software is not great: RouterOS is complete overkill for a switch. It's so difficult to navigate that I pretty much gave up and I am using it as a dumb switch (just made the uplink an access port on a different switch). SwOS was much more reasonable but like I mentioned above, that OS would not work with my modules.

Not sure what is the ideal operating temperature for the product, but my templates for SNMP checks has the chassis of the product running 65 to 70 degree Celsius.Other than that, the product has been working great.

Excelente equipo para mis necesidades ! Recomiendo al 100%

Well this product seems to run very good, sadly FAN3 fails to even run when running in SwitchOS, yet does in RouterOS.This issue is down to MikroTik Assemblers plugging FAN3 into the FAN4 Header and SwitchOS cannot see FAN3 when plugged into that port, whereas RouterOS does a Fan-Detection at start up.Moved FAN3 connector from the FAN4 Header and put it into its correct header (FAN3) and it now detects all 3 fans on RouterOS and SwitchOS.That issue aside the product runs rather well and the fans do not make that much noise when they are spinning and does keep the SFP+ Transceivers cool.

It's mikrotik

各サーバー同士を10G sfp+ x2のLACP構成で組む前提で購入。購入時RouterOS v6まではL3ルーティングはソフトウェア処理だったためせいぜい数百Mbps程度しか出ませんでしたが、新RouterOS v7 が正式リリースされて当機種もハードウェアオフロードに対応したため、インターフェースの性能をフルに活かしてL3ルーティングが可能になりました。40Gbpsにも対応した24ポートフル10GbpsL3スイッチとしては圧倒的最安の機種となりますので、いじり倒したい方にお勧めします。

Hab mir den Switch auf Grund der 2 40GbE QSFP+ Ports gekauft, da das ja etwas ist was man für den Preis bei keinem anderen Hersteller bekommt. An der Hardware selbst habe ich soweit auch nichts auszusetzen, allerdings schaut's dafür bei der Software umso schlechter aus...Hatte vor den Switch mit SwitchOS zu nutzen (kann der CRS326-24S+2Q+RM ja auch neben dem default RouterOS), aber naja, nicht nur das das Interface doch recht beschränkt ist, obendrein funktioniert die Lüftersteuerung in SwitchOS nicht, beziehungsweise ist sie nicht existent und die Lüfter laufen statisch auf 100%!Auch bei den Kabeln/SFP+ Transceivern sollte man aufpassen, denn im Gegensatz zu vielen anderen Miktotik Switches ist der hier SEHR picky und lässt einen auch wirklich nur Mikrotik zertifizierte Hardware nutzen. Meine 3m Cisco DAC Kabel wurden zwar beispielsweise korrekt von dem Switch erkannt, der Switch lässt aber keinen Traffic drüber...Will man etwas sparen kann ich hier noch als Tipp mitgeben einen Blick auf die generischen FSP+ DAC Kabel von fs.com zu werfen, welche mit dem Switch auch funktionieren.
