Networking equipment — MikroTik's refreshed, compact, and affordable wired router for homes and small offices, model hEX (E50UG). This is the new, improved version (refresh) of the highly popular hEX router. The device is equipped with 5x Gigabit (10/100/1000 Mbps) Ethernet ports and 1x full-sized USB port. It is powered by a new, robust dual-core ARM processor and features 512MB of RAM, significantly boosting its performance and throughput (including IPsec hardware acceleration). It operates on the latest RouterOS v7. The device does not have built-in WiFi, making it an ideal choice for environments requiring strictly wired connections or where standalone wireless Access Points are utilized.
The affordable, reliable router you know and trust is now stronger than ever. With the latest refresh, the hEX delivers twice the performance for the same great price. Whether you’re looking for a rock-solid solution for your home or small office, hEX ensures seamless and stable connectivity with a powerful upgrade: we’ve increased the RAM from 256 MB to 512 MB, and replaced the CPU with a modern ARM dual-core workhorse!
Depending on your configuration, the performance increase can reach 100-134%! With 5x Gigabit Ethernet ports, hEX is the most cost-effective way to interconnect your main home or office devices. And you can use the full-sized USB port to add extra storage to stream high-quality media across devices!
