MikroTik RBGPOE Gigabit Ethernet Router with 10/100/1000Base-T, 9–48 V Input, 2 A

MikroTik RBGPOE is a compact Gigabit Ethernet router and PoE injector solution designed to provide reliable wired connectivity and flexible power delivery. It supports 10/100/1000Base-T speeds on its Ethernet ports and accepts a wide input voltage range from 9 to 48 V with up to 2 A input current. The device includes shielded connectors and is intended for use with RouterBOARD devices that accept 9–48 V PoE, making it suitable for small offices, branch sites, and home lab environments that require stable Gigabit network links and simplified cabling.

Advantages

The RBGPOE combines Gigabit data throughput with a broad input voltage window, enabling operation from diverse power sources including direct DC supplies and PoE-capable setups. Its compact form factor reduces rack and tower clutter by consolidating power and data delivery over a single Ethernet cable. Shielded connectors improve EMI resistance and ensure reliable physical connections in electrically noisy environments. The device is compatible with RouterBOARD units that accept the specified PoE voltage range, allowing straightforward integration into existing MikroTik deployments.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Powering RouterBOARD devices over Gigabit Ethernet in small office networks
• Supplying PoE to branch office routers and remote network points
• Home lab setups requiring stable wired Gigabit connectivity and flexible power
• Deployments where reduced cabling and consolidated power/data are desired

Key specifications

• Ethernet speeds: 10/100/1000 Mbit/s over 10/100/1000Base-T cabling
• Input voltage range: 9–48 V DC
• Maximum input current: up to 2 A
• PoE injector function for delivering power over Ethernet to compatible devices
• Shielded Ethernet connectors for improved electromagnetic compatibility
• Compact physical design suitable for constrained spaces and tower installations

How to use

Connect an appropriate DC power source within the 9–48 V range to the device's power input, ensuring the supply can provide up to 2 A as needed. Use a standard Cat5e or better Ethernet cable to link the RBGPOE injector to the RouterBOARD device that supports 9–48 V PoE. Verify the target device is configured to accept PoE power and that network settings match your topology. Place the unit in a well-ventilated location and ensure shielded cable terminations are secure to maintain signal integrity.

Usage recommendations

Use high-quality, shielded Ethernet cables and a power source capable of delivering stable DC within the specified voltage and current limits. Confirm RouterBOARD PoE compatibility before deployment and route cables to minimize exposure to strong electromagnetic sources. For tower or outdoor installations, secure connections and consider additional weatherproofing for exposed terminations.
