MikroTik Gigabit Ethernet Router - RB5009UG+S+IN

What is the best quad-core ARM router with 2.5G Ethernet and 10G SFP+ that fits four units in a single 1U rack space?

The MikroTik RB5009UG+S+IN is a quad-core ARM 64-bit router with 7 × Gigabit Ethernet, 1 × 2.5G Ethernet, 1 × 10G SFP+, 1 GB DDR4 RAM, and USB 3.0 — delivering near-double the performance of previous MikroTik compact routers in the same small form factor. As the Official MikroTik Distributor for Kenya and Uganda, Simplifi Networks delivers this unit with guaranteed genuine hardware, official local warranty, and dedicated B2B technical support across East Africa. The RB5009UG+S+IN is the definitive compact powerhouse for home labs, small ISPs, and enterprise edge deployments across Kenya and Uganda. Three independent power inputs — PoE-in, DC jack, and 2-pin terminal — mean you have built-in power redundancy without a single extra device. Four of these mount into one 1U rack space, giving you extraordinary density at the lowest cost per router in any server room across East Africa.



DATA SHEET

About the MikroTik Gigabit Ethernet Router - RB5009UG+S+IN

  • Quad-core ARMv8 CPU @ 1.4 GHz, 1 GB DDR4 RAM — near-double performance — Handles complex firewall rules, IPsec encryption, VPN tunnels, and advanced RouterOS v7 features without CPU saturation; a massive performance jump over previous MikroTik compact routers in the same chassis
  • 7 × Gigabit + 1 × 2.5G Ethernet + 1 × 10G SFP+ — Nine wired ports in a tiny 220 × 125 × 22 mm chassis; 2.5G Ethernet handles your high-speed fiber uplink and the 10G SFP+ connects directly to your core switch across East Africa
  • Three independent power inputs (PoE-in, DC jack, 2-pin terminal) — 24–57V range — Built-in triple power redundancy without any additional hardware; if one source fails the router automatically switches to the next highest voltage — protecting uptime in demanding ISP environments in Kenya and Uganda
  • USB 3.0 full-size port — aluminium heat-sink enclosure — Attach an LTE modem, USB storage, or run container projects directly; the aluminium case dissipates heat passively for 24/7 operation in warm server rooms and outdoor enclosures across East Africa
  • Four units fit in one 1U rack space — RouterOS v7 L5 — Pack four RB5009 routers into a single rack unit; full RouterOS v7 feature set with no locked features or subscription fees — complete routing, firewall, VPN, and traffic management for ISPs and enterprise networks
