Why settle for just a simple switch when you can have PoE-out, high-speed fiber uplinks, USB storage compatibility, advanced network control/monitoring, and enough processing power even for some routing or L3 HW offloading… in a single 1U device and for the best price on the market?
The CRS418-8P-8G-2S+RM combines 16 Gigabit Ethernet ports (eight of them with PoE-out!), two 10G SFP+ cages, USB 3 connectivity, and a powerful quad-core 2.2 GHz CPU in a clean, durable rackmount enclosure. Also, there’s a Gigabit management port with a direct CPU line.
This is a serious upgrade for anyone looking to replace a jungle of devices with one smart multitasker – built for real routing workloads, high-bandwidth uplinks, and clean cable management. Whether you’re powering up access points and CCTV cameras, running a fast NAS with a bunch of modern workstations, or managing the routing in your mid-sized office, CRS418 handles it all with ease – and on a budget!
CRS418-8P-8G-2S+RM is more than a switch. It’s a real multi-tasking champion that keeps your network lean and your server room clean.

- All tests are done with Xena Networks specialized test equipment (XenaBay),and done according to RFC2544 (Xena2544)
- Max throughput is determined with 30+ second attempts with 0,1% packet loss tolerance in 64, 512, 1518 byte packet sizes
- Test results show device maximum performance, and are reached using mentioned hardware and software configuration, different configurations most likely will result in lower results
