CRS504 Switch...

The MikroTik CRS504-4XQ-IN is a surprisingly efficient way to get into 100GbE at home, especially when you compare it to other 100G switches on the market. I like that it gives you four QSFP28 ports (100G/40G) and the option to break out into 25G lanes, plus redundant hot-swap PSUs and even PoE power on the management port.

Pros

  • +Great value compared to other 100GbE switches
  • +Four QSFP28 ports support 100G/40G and breakout to 25G
  • +Can run on PoE via the management port with very low idle draw
  • +Dual redundant hot-swappable power supplies

Cons

  • -MSRP is high for average home users
  • -RouterOS has lots of features but the single-core 650MHz CPU limits heavy services
  • -May require manual FEC (FEC91) to bring up some 100G DAC links
