Introducing the L009 Router: The Ultimate Upgrade from the Legendary RB2011 Series
For over a decade, the RB2011 series has been synonymous with affordable, flexible, and robust connectivity. As our first router with SFP, it has set a high standard. Now, we're excited to introduce its successor: the L009. Don’t worry, we’ve preserved and enhanced all the key features of the RB2011, including its iconic red design and budget-friendly price.
L009 is more than just a router. This product line is up to 4 times faster than RB2011, it has a modern ARM CPU with container support, an innovative enclosure that allows mounting up to four routers in a single 1U space, more RAM, PoE, and 2.5G SFP support. This version comes with 1U rackmount accessories.
The MikroTik L009UiGS-2HaxD-IN router supports the latest Wi-Fi 6 standard, which provides up to 90% performance improvement in the 2.4 GHz band. With data rates of up to 574 Mbps, the router can handle large volumes of data. It's ideal for modern homes and businesses that rely on a variety of smart devices, streaming services and high-speed data transfers.
Why Choose the L009?
Three main reasons: superior performance, additional features, and improved quality of life.
Unmatched Performance
The L009 is powered by a dual-core ARM CPU, delivering significant improvements in routing, filtering, complex firewall configurations, and IPsec hardware encryption. The ARM architecture provides distinct advantages over older MIPS-based devices, enabling the use of the latest Linux Kernel features and custom container projects. With a full-sized USB port, you can run custom applications like Pi-hole adblock or add an LTE modem. The possibilities are endless.
The L009 is up to four times faster than the RB2011 in most scenarios, from simple fast path routing to complex bridge filters. Its IPsec hardware encryption ensures lower CPU usage without compromising performance, offering around 60-90 Mbps throughput with a 1400 byte packet size.
Enhanced Features
All ports on the L009 are now Gigabit Ethernet, with PoE-in on the first port to power the unit and PoE-out* on the last port to power other devices. The SFP cage supports both Gigabit and 2.5 Gigabit connectivity, tested with various MikroTik SFP modules and cables for higher speeds. A console port provides quick direct-access configuration, simplifying the sysadmin’s life.
The Marvell Peridot Switchchip at the core offers a 2.5 Gigabit full duplex connection to the CPU for all ports except Ether1, which has its own Gigabit full duplex line. This ensures countless configurations without bottlenecks.
Innovative Design
The new enclosure, similar to our popular RB5009 devices, acts as a massive heat sink to prevent overheating. It allows you to mount up to four L009 routers in a single 1U rackmount space, optimizing server room efficiency. Pair an RB5009 with PoE-out ports with seven L009 routers in just two 1U rackmount spaces to achieve unparalleled space management and reliable power distribution.
The RM version of the L009, designed for rack mounting, excludes the 2.4 GHz wireless but comes with all necessary mounting accessories, further reducing costs.
