The MikroTik netPower 15FR (CRS318-1Fi-15Fr-2S-OUT) is an outdoor switch with 16 Fast Ethernet ports, 15 of them reverse PoE, and two SFP ports.

Part of MikroTik's GPEN concept, it lets an ISP deliver internet to individual apartments over Ethernet instead of GPON base stations and optical splitters. The switch can take its power from the clients through the reverse PoE ports, even from a single one, or from the DC jack. Port 15 can also power another PoE device at the input voltage. It dual-boots RouterOS (level 5) or SwOS. The power supply is not included.

Key features

  • 16 x 10/100 Ethernet ports, 15 with passive reverse PoE-in
  • 2 x SFP ports
  • Passive PoE-out on ether15, 0.75 A maximum
  • DC jack or PoE-in, 18-57 V (36-57 V recommended), 29 W maximum
  • IP54 enclosure, tested from -40 to +70 °C, 304 x 212 x 71 mm
  • RouterOS or SwOS, dual boot

In the box

  • Hose clamps (2)
  • K-66 fastening set
  • DC to terminal block adapter
