MikroTik CRS317 10G SFP+ switch

Description

MikroTik CRS317 10G SFP+ switch

If your network backbone needs a serious upgrade, meet the MikroTik CRS317 10G SFP+ switch: a compact, fan-quiet, rack-ready SFP+ powerhouse that turns server rooms and aggregation points into speed lanes. Engineered for ISPs, data centers, and performance-minded businesses, this switch packs 16 SFP+ 10GbE ports and a single 1G management interface into a slim, professional chassis — perfect when every millisecond and every port matters.

This isn’t “just another switch.” The MikroTik CRS317 10G SFP+ switch blends MikroTik’s flexible RouterOS features with the tight reliability of a purpose-built switch, giving network engineers granular control over VLANs, layer-3 routing, link aggregation, and QoS while keeping line-rate 10GbE throughput for all ports. It’s quiet, efficient, and built to sit in a rack and keep quiet while doing heavy lifting: backups, aggregation, virtualization fabrics, or high-density uplinks.

Beyond the raw ports, the CRS317 is designed for real deployments: stable firmware, robust switching ASIC performance, and the ability to handle sustained multi-gig traffic without choking. Use it as a top-of-rack switch, a distribution layer for hyperconverged servers, or the heart of a small ISP POP — it won’t flinch.
