HIGH-PERFORMANCE MIKROTIK CORE ROUTER

The MikroTik CCR2216-1G-12XS-2XQ is designed for environments where network traffic volumes and interface speeds exceed the requirements of conventional routers. Its combination of 25G SFP28 and 100G QSFP28 interfaces makes it suitable for building high-capacity network cores and aggregation layers.

For Internet Service Providers, the CCR2216 can be deployed as a core router, edge router or aggregation platform depending on the network architecture. It can support high-speed connections between network sites, upstream providers, data centers, distribution networks and other critical infrastructure.

12 × 25G SFP28 PORTS

The CCR2216 provides 12 SFP28 interfaces for high-speed 25G network connections. These ports can be used for fiber-based connections to compatible switches, routers, servers and other network equipment.

Multiple 25G interfaces make the router suitable for aggregation environments where several high-speed links need to be concentrated into a powerful routing platform. This can be particularly useful for growing ISPs and enterprise networks upgrading from 10G to 25G infrastructure.

2 × 100G QSFP28 PORTS

For very high-bandwidth backbone and uplink requirements, the MikroTik CCR2216 includes 2 QSFP28 interfaces supporting 100G connectivity. These interfaces can be used for high-speed connections to other core routers, aggregation switches, data center infrastructure and network service providers.

The 100G interfaces provide additional capacity for network operators building modern backbone infrastructure and provide a pathway for scaling network throughput as traffic requirements increase.

16-CORE PROCESSING POWER

The CCR2216 is equipped with a 16-core processor designed to handle demanding routing workloads. This makes it suitable for large network environments requiring substantial routing, forwarding and network management capabilities.

MikroTik RouterOS provides a broad range of networking functions, allowing the CCR2216 to be configured for different roles within an ISP, enterprise or data center network. Depending on the deployment, network administrators can use RouterOS features for routing, firewalling, traffic management, VLANs, VPNs, BGP and other network functions.

IDEAL FOR ISPs AND TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORKS

The MikroTik CCR2216-1G-12XS-2XQ is particularly relevant to Internet Service Providers, Wireless Internet Service Providers, telecommunications companies, data center operators and network integrators.

It can be deployed in applications including ISP core routing, network aggregation, data center interconnection, high-speed backbone links, enterprise core networks, service-provider infrastructure and large-scale fiber networks.

The combination of 25G and 100G interfaces allows network designers to connect multiple high-speed network segments while maintaining substantial uplink capacity toward the network core or upstream providers.
