The CRS812 DDQ is a high-performance Layer 2/Layer 3 switch that brings 50G, 200G, and 400G connectivity into a compact 1U form factor. It combines a quad-core 2 GHz ARM 64-bit CPU, 4 GB RAM, dual-redundant hot-swap power supplies, and 4× hot-swap cooling fans with a flexible mix of high-speed ports: 2× 1G/10G Ethernet, 8× 50G SFP56, 2× 200G QSFP56, and 2× 400G QSFP56-DD.

Note: QSFP56 and QSFP56-DD ports support break-out modes to 1G / 2.5G / 5G / 10G / 25G / 50G, allowing flexible fan-out to lower-speed links using suitable DACs or optics.

Make 50G–400G connectivity practical and accessible

High-capacity 400G networking has traditionally been associated with complex and expensive platforms. The CRS812 DDQ uses a modern high-performance switch chip and a powerful ARM CPU to deliver advanced switching, routing, and traffic management with familiar RouterOS v7 features – now scaled up to 400 Gbps interfaces.

Core hardware

ARM 64-bit quad-core CPU @ 2 GHz
4 GB RAM, 512 MB NAND storage
RouterOS v7, license level 6
High-performance switching ASIC for wire-speed forwarding

Power & cooling

2× AC inputs, 2× PSU slots (dual-redundant)
AC input range: 100–240 V, 50–60 Hz
4× hot-swap fans
Max power consumption: 134 W (approx. 81 W without attachments)

Environment & monitoring

Tested ambient: −10 °C to +50 °C
MTBF: approx. 200,000 hours at 25 °C
CPU and PCB temperature monitoring
Voltage monitoring & RJ45 serial console port

Where does the CRS812 DDQ fit?

Thanks to its mix of 50G, 200G, and 400G interfaces, the CRS812 DDQ suits a wide range of high-throughput roles:

Top-of-rack or leaf switch with 400G uplinks to a spine fabric
Campus or data-center core bridging legacy 10G to modern 50G access
Service provider or carrier aggregation node
Labs, AI clusters, and media workflows with heavy east-west traffic
