The CRS318-1Fi-15Fr-2S-OUT netPower 15FR is a high-density outdoor smart switch designed for cost-effective fiber and Ethernet distribution using reverse PoE. Built for deployments where running individual power lines is impractical, it features 15 Gigabit Ethernet reverse PoE ports and two SFP ports, making it an ideal solution for wireless sites, outdoor access networks, and GPEN-based alternatives to GPON.
Housed in an IP54-rated outdoor enclosure, the netPower 15FR is engineered for reliable operation in harsh environments while maintaining a compact footprint suitable for wall, pole, or enclosure mounting. It enables a single power source to be delivered to the switch and then distributed to downstream devices, reducing installation cost and complexity.
Powered by an ARM-based architecture and supporting dual boot (RouterOS v7 or SwOS), the CRS318-1Fi-15Fr-2S-OUT offers flexibility depending on whether advanced routing features or simple managed switching are required. It supports VLANs, monitoring, and light routing, making it well-suited for outdoor aggregation and edge deployments.
The device is designed to be powered via PoE in or DC input and can then distribute power to connected devices using reverse PoE.
