The MikroTik RB260GS (also known as CSS106-5G-1S) is a compact, affordable smart managed SOHO switch with 5 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 1 SFP cage. It’s a simple, plug-and-play device for small offices, home labs, or expanding networks in Nairobi—perfect for adding managed switching, fiber uplinks, or basic VLAN/QoS without the complexity of full RouterOS devices.

Add reliable Gigabit switching with the MikroTik RB260GS: a 5-port Gigabit Ethernet smart switch with 1 SFP cage for fiber uplinks, SwOS management, VLAN support, and low-power design. Ideal for small office, home lab, or SOHO setups in Nairobi with wire-speed performance, easy web interface, and compact plastic case—great for basic managed networking without high cost.

MikroTik RB260GS 5x Gigabit Ethernet Smart Switch

  • 5 Gigabit Ethernet Ports: 5 x 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports for high-speed wired connections—supports auto-negotiation and full wire-speed switching.
  • 1 SFP Cage: Gigabit SFP slot (Mini-GBIC) for fiber or copper uplinks—tested with MikroTik modules like S-85DLC05D (multi-mode) or S-31DLC20D (single-mode) for longer distances.
  • SwOS Management: Lightweight MikroTik SwOS operating system via web interface—supports VLANs (port-based or 802.1Q), port mirroring, bandwidth limiting, MAC filtering, and storm control.
  • Switch Chip: Atheros QCA8337 (or similar) for efficient Layer 2 switching—non-blocking performance with low latency.
  • Compact Plastic Case: Small dimensions (113 x 139 x 28 mm)—desktop or wall-mountable; lightweight (~212g without PSU).
  • Power Options: 8-30V DC via power jack or passive PoE-in on Ether1 (non-802.3af)—includes 24V adapter; max consumption ~6W.
  • Passive Cooling: Fanless design for silent operation—runs cool in warm Nairobi environments.
  • LED Indicators: Power, NAND activity, and per-port Ethernet activity/speed LEDs—quick status checks.
  • No PoE Out: Standard model focuses on switching (PoE-out version is RB260GSP for powering devices).
  • Storage & MTBF: 128 KB flash storage; approximately 100,000 hours MTBF at 25°C for reliable long-term use.
  • Operating Temperature: -25°C to +65°C—suitable for indoor use in various conditions.
  • High Compatibility: Works with standard Cat5e/Cat6 cables, SFP modules, and MikroTik ecosystem—easy integration with other MikroTik routers/switches.
  • Great for Simple Managed Networks: Affordable upgrade from unmanaged switches—perfect for VLAN segmentation, port isolation, or fiber-to-copper conversion in small setups.
  • Trusted MikroTik Quality: Community-favorite device praised for simplicity, performance, and value—ideal for users wanting basic smart switching without full RouterOS complexity.
