MikroTik Routerboard hEX PoE RB960PGS - 5 Port Gigabit Ethernet Router Description
For SOHO (Small Office/Home Office) environments or edge deployments that require high throughput and PoE functionality, the MikroTik hEX PoE (RB960PGS) is a powerful and cost-effective five-port Gigabit Ethernet router designed for locations without wireless connectivity. The Routerboard offers high performance with a CPU frequency of 800 MHz, making it capable of all the advanced configurations. Equipped with 5x 10/1000 Mbit ports, the router ensures you enjoy blazing-fast internet access without disrupting your internet activity. The router features four PoE-out ports, allowing it to power other MikroTik devices such as access points or IP cameras directly from the router, reducing cable clutter and simplifying setup. It includes a USB 2.0 port and an SFP port that adds fibre connectivity support for extended distances. The MikroTik hEX PoE is designed to operate in extreme temperatures ranging from -40 °C to 70 °C, supporting current and PB temperature monitoring for enhanced device management. Powered by RouterOS, it offers advanced features like routing, firewall, VPN, bandwidth management, and more. This makes it perfect for professional users who need both performance and flexibility in a compact device.
Flexible Connectivity
Engineered with four passive PoE-out ports, the hEX PoE can power other MikroTik devices, such as access points like the cAP or wAP series, or even VoIP phones and cameras, directly from the router, reducing the need for extra power adapters and simplifying cabling. The PoE passthrough feature allows flexible power distribution from a single source. The built-in SFP port provides fibre uplink capability, making the hEX PoE suitable for longer distance links and future-proof networking.


Powered by RouterOS with Advanced Performance
This model is part of MikroTik's reliable hEX series and provides enterprise-grade performance in a cost-effective form factor ideal for small businesses, home offices, and edge deployments. It is pre-installed with RouterOS, a full-featured operating system with advanced tools like MPLS, VLAN, OSPF, VPN, firewall, NAT, QoS, and user management. The hEX PoE offers professional flexibility at a consumer-friendly price point, which makes it perfect for professional users who need both performance and flexibility in a compact device. The router is powered by a dual-core 880 MHz CPU and 128 MB of RAM, allowing it to handle complex configurations with ease.
Built and Energy Consumption
The hEX PoE features a fanless metal case that ensures quiet and durable operation, making it suitable for deployment in environments where noise is a concern. It is also energy-efficient and supports a wide range of input voltages, making it robust for industrial and remote setups. Its ports 2-5 can power other PoE-capable devices with the same voltage as applied to the unit, with fewer power adapters and cables to worry about. The max current is 1A per port if the input voltage is 12- 30V, 450mA if 31- 57V, and Ethernet ports are shielded.
