Powering
The device accepts power in the following ways:
direct-input power jacks J1/J2 (5.5mm outside and 2mm inside diameter, female, pin positive plug) both accept 10-57V DC.
Ether1 Ethernet port accepts 12-57V DC input (at the board; higher voltage needed to compensate for power loss on long cables) from 802.3af/at
or passive Power over Ethernet sources.
Max total power consumption with all interfaces loaded is 5 W. You can use any or all inputs at the same time, they will work in failover mode.
Booting process
RouterOS is the operating system of all RouterBOARD routers. Please see documentation:
This device is not preconfigured other than an IP address on the ethernet port. Another configuration has to be applied according to the documentation
manual linked above.
The initial connection has to be done via the ethernet cable, using the MikroTik Winbox utility. Winbox should be used to connect to the default IP address
of 192.168.88.1 with the username admin and no password.
In case you wish to boot the device from the network, for example, to use MikroTik Netinstall, hold the reset button of the device when starting it until the
LED light turns off, and the device will start to look for Netinstall servers.
In case the IP connection is not available, the Winbox utility can also be used to connect to the MAC address of the device. More information in the
documentation.
