MikroTik RB960PGS (hEX PoE) – Compact Gigabit PoE Router with SFP Uplink

The MikroTik RB960PGS (hEX PoE) – Compact Gigabit PoE Router with SFP Uplink is a cost-effective yet powerful 5-port Gigabit Ethernet router with advanced PoE-out support and an SFP uplink port. Designed for small offices, SOHO networks, and WISPs, this router delivers high performance in a compact form factor while simplifying network setups by powering other devices directly through Ethernet.

Efficient Performance in a Small Package

Powered by a dual-core 880 MHz CPU and 128 MB RAM, the hEX PoE is capable of handling essential routing tasks, firewalling, VPN connections, and bandwidth management with ease. Despite its compact size, it can deliver stable throughput and is designed for 24/7 reliable operation.

MikroTik RB960PGS (hEX PoE) – Compact Gigabit PoE Router with SFP Uplink Flexible Connectivity Options

The RB960PGS comes with:

  • 5×Gigabit Ethernet ports for LAN/WAN distribution.

  • 1×SFP cage for fiber uplinks or backbone connectivity.

  • 1×USB 2.0 port for LTE modems, external storage, or expansion.

This ensures that it can be easily integrated into both copper-based and fiber-based networks, giving administrators flexibility for future scaling.

MikroTik RB960PGS (hEX PoE) – Compact Gigabit PoE Router with SFP Uplink PoE Power Simplification

The standout feature of the hEX PoE is its PoE-out capability on ports 2–5:

  • Powers compatible devices such as MikroTik access points, IP cameras, or VoIP phones.

  • Supports passive PoE (up to 57 V), reducing the need for multiple power adapters and simplifying cabling.

  • PoE-in support on port 1, allowing the router itself to be powered via Ethernet from another source.

This makes it an excellent choice for small deployments where space, efficiency, and cost matter. MikroTik RB960PGS (hEX PoE) – Compact Gigabit PoE Router with SFP Uplink
