MikroTik CRS354-48G-4S+2Q+RM Key Features
MikroTik CRS354-48G-4S+2Q+RM provides a large number of Ethernet interfaces in a single rackmount device. It includes 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports, four 10G SFP+ ports, and two 40G QSFP+ ports, giving network administrators multiple options for connecting access devices and high-speed uplinks.
The switch is powered by a Marvell 98DX3257 switch chip and uses a 650 MHz QCA9531 CPU with 128 MB of RAM and 32 MB of flash storage. As a result, the hardware provides a combination of dedicated switching capabilities and software-based network management.
The device also includes a redundant power supply arrangement with two AC power inputs. This can be useful in installations where power redundancy is required for the network infrastructure.
Gigabit Ethernet Connectivity
The 48 RJ45 Ethernet ports support 10/100/1000 Mbps connectivity, allowing the switch to connect a large number of computers, access devices, servers, network equipment, and other compatible Ethernet endpoints.
Because all 48 main Ethernet interfaces support Gigabit speeds, the switch can serve as a high-density aggregation or access device within a suitable network architecture. The large port count can also reduce the need to deploy multiple smaller switches for the same group of connected devices.
The device provides an RJ45 serial console port for management and configuration access. It also supports a maximum frame size of 10218 bytes on its main Ethernet and high-speed interfaces according to MikroTik documentation.
10G SFP+ and 40G QSFP+ Uplinks
MikroTik CRS354-48G-4S+2Q+RM includes four 10G SFP+ ports for high-speed optical or compatible SFP+ connections. These ports can be used for uplinks, inter-switch connections, or other network links that require more bandwidth than standard Gigabit Ethernet.
The switch also provides two 40G QSFP+ ports for higher-speed network connectivity. Consequently, the combination of 10G and 40G interfaces provides multiple options for connecting the switch to faster network infrastructure.
For example, the 48 Gigabit ports can be used for local network devices while the SFP+ or QSFP+ interfaces provide higher-speed connections toward aggregation, core, or other network equipment. The exact topology depends on the network design and compatible transceivers or cables being used.
RouterOS and SwOS Management
The device supports RouterOS v7 with a Level 5 license and also supports SwOS, providing flexibility in how the switch is configured and managed. RouterOS and SwOS offer different management approaches, so the appropriate operating system can be selected according to the requirements of the network.
Management can be performed through WebFig or MikroTik’s WinBox configuration tool. However, configuration should be carried out according to the network design and the requirements of the installed software version.
The switch chip also supports hardware-based Layer 3 offloading capabilities documented by MikroTik. This can allow supported routing and switching operations to use the switch hardware rather than relying entirely on the CPU.
Applications
MikroTik CRS354-48G-4S+2Q+RM can be used in enterprise networks, server rooms, data center environments, network aggregation, and other professional installations requiring a high-density Ethernet switch. Its combination of Gigabit, 10G, and 40G interfaces allows different network speeds to be integrated into one rackmount platform.
For example, a server environment can use the 48 Gigabit ports for connected network equipment while the 10G SFP+ and 40G QSFP+ interfaces provide high-speed uplinks. Similarly, an enterprise network can use the switch as part of an aggregation layer where multiple Ethernet connections need to be consolidated.
The rackmount design also makes the device suitable for structured network installations. Its 297 × 443 × 44 mm dimensions allow it to fit within a standard rack-oriented environment when installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
