Five-port Gigabit router with PoE output

The Mikrotik RB960PGS hEX PoE is a compact, wired router built for sites that do not need wireless. It runs RouterOS on an 800 MHz single-core CPU with 128 MB of RAM and provides five shielded Gigabit Ethernet ports. Ports two through five can deliver up to 1 A each, 2 A total, to power other PoE devices from the same 12-57 V supply. A USB 2.0 port and an SFP cage add storage or fibre uplink options.

Replaces separate switches and injectors

Instead of a basic router plus a PoE switch or individual injectors, this unit combines routing and power distribution in one box. The jump is worth it when you need to feed cameras, access points or IP phones from a single 12-57 V source and want RouterOS features such as VLANs, queues and firewall rules without extra hardware. It is not for buyers who need more than five copper ports or who require a built-in wireless radio.

Handles small-branch routing and four PoE endpoints

The 800 MHz core and 128 MB RAM comfortably run routing, NAT, VPN and management for a small office or remote site with up to four powered devices. The SFP cage allows a fibre uplink when copper reach is insufficient. Headroom runs out with heavy connection tracking, multiple simultaneous VPN tunnels or traffic shaping on all ports at line rate, and the single USB 2.0 port limits high-speed storage or modem use.

Questions about this item

What size rack or shelf space does the RB960PGS need?

The unit is a compact desktop router with five shielded Gigabit Ethernet ports, one USB 2.0 port and an SFP cage; it requires only a flat surface or wall-mount brackets, not a rack shelf.

How do I power the RB960PGS and its PoE devices, and what step is often missed?

Connect a 12-57 V DC source to the PoE-in port (802.3at); ports 2-5 then deliver up to 1 A each, 2 A total — the step often missed is confirming the supply can provide the combined 2 A for all powered devices.

When will the SFP transceiver or the USB 2.0 port need replacement?

The SFP cage accepts hot-swappable transceivers, so only the module itself is replaced when the link type changes or fails; the USB 2.0 port has no moving parts and typically lasts the life of the router.
