MikroTik CCR2004-16G-2S+PC – 16-Port Gigabit Cloud Core Router with 10G SFP+
The MikroTik CCR2004-16G-2S+PC is a professional Cloud Core Router designed for enterprise, ISP, SMB, branch, aggregation and advanced routing environments. It combines 16× Gigabit Ethernet ports with 2× 10G SFP+ interfaces, providing a practical high-density routing platform for networks that require multiple Gigabit connections and high-speed fiber uplinks.
The PC version is designed around a quad-core AL32400 ARM64 processor running at 1.2GHz, 4GB DDR4 RAM and 128MB NAND storage. It runs RouterOS v7 with a Level 6 license, giving administrators access to advanced routing, firewall, VPN, VLAN, BGP, OSPF, QoS and traffic-management features.
A key difference of the CCR2004-16G-2S+PC is its passive cooling and DC power design. This makes it an interesting option for environments where low acoustic noise and flexible DC power input are important.

16× Gigabit Ethernet Ports
The MikroTik CCR2004-16G-2S+PC provides 16 Ethernet ports supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps connectivity. This high port density makes it suitable for connecting multiple switches, servers, access networks, workstations, cameras, wireless controllers and other Ethernet devices.
The 16 Gigabit ports are arranged in two groups, with each group connected to a separate Marvell switch chip. Each switch chip has a dedicated 10Gbps full-duplex connection to the CPU, helping the router efficiently handle traffic between its interfaces.
2× 10G SFP+ Uplink Ports
For high-speed uplinks, the CCR2004-16G-2S+PC includes two 10G SFP+ cages. These ports can be used with compatible SFP+ optical transceivers, DAC cables or other supported modules.
A common deployment is to use the 16 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces for the local or access network and the two SFP+ interfaces for 10G uplinks, aggregation or backbone connectivity.
Quad-Core ARM64 CPU
The router uses an AL32400 quad-core ARM64 processor running at 1.2GHz. The ARM64 architecture provides a modern processing platform for RouterOS v7 and advanced routing workloads.
MikroTik’s published performance results demonstrate substantial routing and bridging throughput under fast-path test conditions. Actual performance depends on packet size, firewall rules, queues, traffic patterns and other active RouterOS features.
4GB DDR4 RAM
The CCR2004-16G-2S+PC comes with 4GB DDR4 RAM. This provides sufficient system memory for demanding RouterOS configurations involving routing tables, firewall policies, VPNs, VLANs and other networking services.
The device also includes 128MB NAND storage for RouterOS and system data.
RouterOS v7 Level 6
The CCR2004-16G-2S+PC comes with RouterOS v7 and a Level 6 license. RouterOS provides an extensive set of networking features including:
- Static and dynamic routing
- BGP
- OSPF
- MPLS
- VLAN and bridge management
- Firewall and NAT
- IPsec and VPN
- QoS and queues
- Traffic shaping
- Bonding
- Routing policies
- Network monitoring and management
Passive Cooling for Low-Noise Networking
One of the main characteristics of the CCR2004-16G-2S+PC is its passive cooling design. Unlike the actively cooled rackmount CCR2004-16G-2S+, this PC version does not rely on internal cooling fans.
This makes the model particularly suitable for offices, studios, labs, control rooms, quieter server environments and installations where acoustic noise is a consideration.
Dual DC Power Inputs
The CCR2004-16G-2S+PC supports two DC power inputs, including a DC jack and a 2-pin terminal connection. The supported input voltage range is 36–57V DC.
The dual-input design allows flexible DC power deployment and can be useful in telecommunications, industrial and network-infrastructure environments where a suitable DC power source is already available.
The standard package includes a 48V power adapter.
Suitable for ISP and Enterprise Networks
The combination of 16 Gigabit Ethernet ports, two 10G SFP+ interfaces and RouterOS v7 makes the CCR2004-16G-2S+PC suitable for a wide range of professional networking applications.
- ISP edge routing
- Enterprise routing
- SMB network core
- Branch-office routing
- Gigabit network aggregation
- 10G uplink aggregation
- Server network connectivity
- Firewall and NAT routing
- BGP and OSPF routing
- VPN gateway
- High-density office networks
- Low-noise network infrastructure
Gigabit Access with 10G Uplinks
The port layout of the CCR2004-16G-2S+PC makes it particularly useful for networks built around Gigabit Ethernet access with 10G backbone connectivity.
For example, multiple Gigabit switches or access devices can connect to the 16 RJ45 Ethernet ports, while the two SFP+ interfaces connect the router to a 10G aggregation switch, upstream router or high-speed backbone.
This provides a straightforward architecture for businesses upgrading from Gigabit networking toward 10G uplinks without replacing every access connection.
Published CCR2004 Performance
MikroTik’s official test results for the CCR2004-16G-2S+PC report approximately 32.19Gbps throughput in the 1518-byte bridging fast-path test and approximately 31.25Gbps in the 1518-byte routing fast-path test.
With 25 bridge filter rules, the published 1518-byte bridging result is approximately 13.48Gbps, while 25 simple queues produce approximately 13.17Gbps in the corresponding routing test.
These are manufacturer benchmark results obtained using Xena Networks test equipment according to RFC2544 methodology. Real-world throughput varies depending on configuration, packet size, firewall rules, queues and enabled services.
IPsec VPN Performance
The CCR2004-16G-2S+PC also supports IPsec through RouterOS. MikroTik’s published benchmark reports approximately 2.27Gbps for a single AES-128-CBC + SHA1 IPsec tunnel using 1400-byte packets.
Its published 256-tunnel AES-128-CBC + SHA1 test reaches approximately 2.60Gbps under the manufacturer’s specified test conditions.
Actual VPN performance depends on encryption algorithms, packet size, tunnel count, firewall configuration and other active RouterOS features.
USB and Serial Console
The router includes one USB port and an RJ45 serial console port. The serial console provides an additional method for device management and recovery when normal network access is unavailable.
Desktop or Rackmount Deployment
The CCR2004-16G-2S+PC has dimensions of 272 × 195 × 44 mm. It can be used as a desktop networking device or installed in a rack using the supplied rackmount accessories.
Because this is a passively cooled device, MikroTik recommends installation in a dry and ventilated indoor environment. The specified operating temperature is -20°C to +60°C.
