Built for demanding 10G environments, the CRS317-1G-16S+RM is a top pick for anyone searching for a 16 port SFP+ switch in Kenya, a MikroTik 10GbE switch, or a Layer 3 switch for data centers and ISPs.

Why Choose the MikroTik CRS317-1G-16S+RM from Talisa Technologies?

This switch is powered by a next generation switching chip that delivers true wire speed performance across all sixteen 10GbE SFP+ ports regardless of Ethernet frame size, meaning you don't lose throughput even under heavy, mixed traffic loads. It supports hardware-based Spanning Tree Protocol and Link Aggregation (LACP), giving your network enhanced loop protection and the ability to bond multiple links for greater redundancy and bandwidth. A dedicated 1GbE copper management port keeps administrative access separate from production traffic, a feature normally reserved for higher-end enterprise switches. Inside, a dual-core 800MHz CPU with 1GB of RAM handles Layer 3 routing, VLANs (supporting up to 4K simultaneous VLANs), and switch management smoothly. The unit runs a dual boot setup, letting you choose between full-featured RouterOS or the lightweight, switch-specific SwOS depending on your network's needs. Built for reliability, it includes dual redundant internal power supplies and a passive cooling case that stays silent under normal conditions, with two redundant fans that automatically activate only if needed in hotter environments. The entire chassis fits neatly into a standard 1U rack space. RouterOS comes pre-installed and licensed at Level 6, with free software updates for the life of the product or a minimum of 5 years from date of purchase.
