MikroTik Cloud Core Router CCR2216-1G-12XS-2XQ with power supply
MikroTik Cloud Core Router CCR2216-1G-12XS-2XQ – 100G Router with 16-Core CPU and L3 Hardware Offloading
Embark on your journey to 100 Gigabit speeds with the MikroTik CCR2216-1G-12XS-2XQ, a powerful cloud core router designed for high-capacity, high-performance networking. It features a 16-core CPU paired with a Marvell Prestera Aldrin2 switch-chip, enabling full L3 hardware offloading for exceptional throughput and low latency.
Matching the performance of the previous flagship CCR1072, this model introduces four 25G CPU connection lines - a significant upgrade over the 10G lines in the CCR2116 - making it ideal for demanding routing environments. It includes 2× QSFP28 cages for 100G links, 12× SFP28 cages for 25G connections, and a standard 1G Ethernet port for flexible deployment.
With 16 GB of RAM, NAND storage, and two M.2 SATA slots for expansion, the CCR2216 is built for heavy-duty workloads in data centres, ISPs, and enterprise cores. It also offers four hot-swappable fans and dual-redundant hot-swap power supplies, compatible with those used in the CCR1072, ensuring efficient maintenance and hardware continuity.
