Most networking gear is designed to be simple. MikroTik is designed to be capable.
If you are running more than a basic home network, managing multiple users, or building infrastructure for clients, you quickly hit the limits of consumer-grade equipment.
The latest MikroTik releases are built for that next step: higher throughput, deeper control, and the flexibility to design networks properly, not just plug them in. Whether you are an ISP, system integrator, or a power user who wants full control, this lineup delivers the tools to build it right.
A serious upgrade for modern networks
MikroTik hAP ax S (MT-RBHAP-AX-S)
As internet speeds increase and device counts grow, entry-level routers become the bottleneck.
The hAP ax S is built for users who need more throughput, more flexibility, and better performance across wired and wireless networks.
What it solves:
- Routers struggling under multiple users and devices
- Limited port speeds restricting fibre performance
- Lack of control over network behaviour
Key advantage: With 2.5G and SFP support, it bridges the gap between consumer routers and professional networking gear.
Outcome: A future-ready router that can handle modern bandwidth demands without compromise.
High-performance switching for serious throughput
MikroTik Cloud Router Switch range (MT-RBCRS812-8DS-2DQ-2DDQ-RM / MT-RBCRS804-4DDQ-hRM / MT-RBCRS418-8P-8G-2S+RM)
As network demand increases, switching capacity becomes critical. The latest CRS range is designed for high-throughput environments where large volumes of data need to move quickly and efficiently.
Ideal for:
- ISPs and WISPs
- Data-heavy environments
- Core network aggregation
What they solve:
- Bottlenecks in high-speed networks
- Limited uplink capacity
- Inefficient traffic handling
Outcome: Fast, scalable switching infrastructure that supports serious bandwidth requirements.
Positioning: High-performance switching without enterprise-level cost barriers.
Power and connectivity where it matter most
MikroTik netPower Lite 8P with built-in UPS (MT-RBCSS610-8P-2S+OUT)
Outdoor and edge deployments have one common problem: power instability. The netPower Lite solves this by combining PoE switching with a built-in UPS, ensuring connected devices stay online even during power interruptions.
Ideal for:
- CCTV deployments
- Outdoor wireless links
- Perimeter networking
What it changes: You are not just deploying connectivity. You are protecting uptime.
Outcome: More resilient edge networks that keep running when power becomes unreliable.
Always-on connectivity, even without fibre
MikroTik Chateau LTE7 ax (MT-RBCHATEAU-LTE7-AX) MikroTik Chateau 5G ax R17 (MT-RBCHATEAU-5G-AX-R17)
Not every environment has reliable fibre. Some need mobility, failover, or full wireless connectivity.vThe Chateau range brings LTE and 5G together with Wi-Fi 6 to deliver high-speed, always-on connectivity.
Ideal for:
- Homes and offices without stable fibre
- Failover setups
- Remote work environments
What you get:
- Fast mobile broadband
- Strong indoor Wi-Fi performance
- Flexible deployment options
Outcome: Reliable internet access, even when fixed infrastructure is unavailable or unstable.
IoT connectivity that scales beyond Wi-Fi
MikroTik IoT LoRaWAN Gateway (MT-RBKNOT LR8G)
Not every device needs Wi-Fi. In fact, many should not use it at all. The RBKNOT LR8G introduces LoRaWAN connectivity, designed for long-range, low-power IoT deployments where traditional wireless falls short.
Ideal for:
- Smart agriculture
- Environmental monitoring
- Asset tracking
- Large-area sensor networks
What it changes: Instead of relying on short-range Wi-Fi, you can deploy devices across kilometres with minimal power consumption.
Outcome: A scalable IoT network designed for coverage, not just speed.
MikroTik is not about plug-and-play simplicity. It is about building networks properly.
This latest range gives you the tools to design, scale, and optimise your network based on real-world requirements, not limitations. From IoT and edge deployments to high-performance switching and mobile connectivity, MikroTik continues to deliver flexibility and power where it matters most.
