Mikrotik CCR2216-1G-12XS-2XQ 16-Port Dual PSU Cloud Core Ethernet Router

The Mikrotik CCR2216-1G-12XS-2XQ 16-Port Dual PSU Cloud Core Ethernet Router is a flagship-grade networking solution for ISPs, data centers, and enterprise networks. This Router combines a powerful 16-core ARM 64-bit processor, a Marvell Prestera Aldrin2 switch chip with L3 Hardware Offloading, and dual redundant hot-swap power supplies for uncompromising reliability. This Mikrotik CCR2216-1G-12XS-2XQ Ethernet Router runs RouterOS v7 with a RouterOS Level 6 license, unlocking the full range of advanced routing and network management features.

AL73400 ARM 64-bit Processor

The Mikrotik CCR2216-1G-12XS-2XQ 16-Port Ethernet Router runs on the AL73400 ARM 64-bit processor with 16 cores and 16 threads operating at a nominal frequency of 2000MHz for powerful and efficient multi-threaded packet processing. This 16-core CPU delivers performance competitive with the 72-core Tile CPU found in MikroTik's previous CCR1072 flagship router, representing a major architectural leap forward. The system includes 16GB of RAM for handling large routing tables and complex network traffic loads without performance degradation. A 128MB NAND storage module houses the operating system and configuration data reliably for consistent long-term operation.

Max. 100 Gigabit Connectivity

The Mikrotik CCR2216-1G-12XS-2XQ 16-Port Dual PSU Cloud Core Ethernet Router provides two QSFP28 cages supporting blazing-fast 100 Gigabit connectivity for backbone and uplink connections. Twelve SFP28 cages deliver 25 Gigabit networking capacity for high-density server and switch connections across enterprise and data center infrastructures. A single 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet port serves management access and lower-speed device connectivity needs on the same platform. This Mikrotik Ethernet Router supports compatibility with existing CCR1072 hot-swap power supplies and SFP modules, making it an efficient and cost-effective drop-in upgrade for established network deployments.

RouterOS v7 Operating System

The Mikrotik CCR2216-1G-12XS-2XQ Ethernet Router runs RouterOS v7 with a full Level 6 license, providing access to the complete suite of MikroTik routing, firewall, and network management capabilities. RouterOS v7 introduces improved performance, enhanced container support, and advanced routing protocol features that meet the demands of modern enterprise and ISP network architectures. Network administrators gain full control over BGP, OSPF, MPLS, and advanced firewall configurations through the intuitive RouterOS interface and Winbox management tools. CPU and PCB temperature monitoring alongside voltage monitoring give administrators comprehensive real-time hardware health data for informed operational decision-making.
