Running Fiber networking to another location! MikroTik RB5009UPr+S+IN Unboxing & Setup

Today I'll be unboxing, setting up, and installing my new MikroTik RB5009UPr+S+IN switch that will have a 10Gbps uplink to my massive 81Gbps backbone I showed in a previous video.

This switch has 10 options to power it which makes for an extremely versatile switch that can be used in a wide variety of applications.

Written documentation is available for most of my videos! Check it out here:

At beginning of video I was confused why you telling about RB5009 as a switch (this is the ROUTER). When you set it as a bridge in configuration I understood why :). But holly cow... you buy RB5009 PoE version to used it in such dump configuration only for switching 😲. This is made to process arround 2.5Gb/s of network connection with hardcore configuration 🔥. Anyway greetings from EU\Poland :)

Seeing all the people say its a router like you dont know that... im using it the same way, great video. Even on the website Mikrotik recommends this for home labbing.

Its super nice that you have 10gig internet i cant even get 1g where i live. You could go over kill and get like 4 sfp+ ports and then have your PC have 10gig internet but 2.5 g is more then anyone needs really.

Good video, why did you run SM fiber instead of MM ? SM is good for really long distances. MM is more common for shorter & 10g.

The RB5009 is also a router not just a switch 😂

[dimmk]

do you have a link for the second power source on the left of the router?

such a waste of money is using this as switch. This is perfect for routing vlans subnets and normal usual routing stuff. You should have bought css series for switching...

Please stop lip smacking so annoying, good video though 😊
