MikroTik L009UiGS-2HaxD-IN is a compact, feature-rich RouterOS v7 router designed for home, SMB, branch-office and professional networking deployments. It combines 2.4GHz WiFi 6, eight Gigabit Ethernet ports, a 2.5G-capable SFP port, USB 3.0, passive PoE-Out and modern ARM-based processing in a compact enclosure.
The L009UiGS-2HaxD-IN is part of MikroTik’s L009 family and is positioned as an upgrade to the popular RB2011 platform. It uses a dual-core IPQ-5018 CPU at 800 MHz, 512 MB DDR3L RAM and 128 MB NAND storage, while RouterOS v7 provides advanced routing, firewall, VPN, VLAN and container capabilities.

WiFi 6 AX600 Wireless Connectivity
The L009UiGS-2HaxD-IN includes a dual-chain 2.4GHz WiFi 6 radio based on the 802.11b/g/n/ax standards. MikroTik specifies a maximum theoretical wireless data rate of 574 Mbps and 4 dBi antenna gain.
WiFi 6 brings improved efficiency and responsiveness compared with earlier WiFi generations, particularly in environments with multiple connected devices. The wireless interface can be used for typical RouterOS wireless networking applications such as access-point connectivity and client connectivity.
The router includes an HGO indoor antenna kit, while the enclosure provides external antenna connections for the supplied antennas.
8× Gigabit Ethernet Ports
The L009UiGS-2HaxD-IN provides eight 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet ports. This gives the router considerably more wired connectivity than many compact residential routers.
Ether1 is used for PoE-In, while Ether8 supports passive PoE-Out. The remaining Ethernet ports can be used for LAN devices, switches, access points, servers, VLAN configurations and other wired network equipment.
MikroTik’s Marvell Peridot switch chip provides a 2.5 Gbps full-duplex connection toward the CPU for the ports other than Ether1, while Ether1 has its own Gigabit full-duplex connection.
2.5G SFP Connectivity
One of the key advantages of the L009 series is its flexible SFP interface. The L009UiGS-2HaxD-IN provides one SFP cage supporting up to 2.5 Gigabit connectivity, allowing the router to be connected to compatible fiber or SFP-based networking equipment.
This can be useful for higher-speed uplinks, fiber-based network connections and connections to aggregation switches supporting compatible SFP modules or cables. MikroTik explicitly lists both Gigabit and 2.5 Gigabit support for this SFP interface.
Passive PoE-Out on Ether8
The Ether8 port provides passive PoE-Out for compatible MikroTik devices. The maximum output depends on the input voltage: MikroTik specifies up to 1A at 24–30V DC input and up to 450mA at 30–56V DC input.
It is important to distinguish this from IEEE 802.3af/at PoE-Out. The L009’s Ether8 output is passive PoE, so the connected equipment must be compatible with the supplied passive PoE voltage.
MikroTik also specifies that PoE-Out works when the L009 is powered through its DC jack.
802.3af/at PoE-In
The router supports 802.3af/at PoE-In through Ether1. The PoE input range is 24–56V. It can alternatively be powered through the DC jack, which also accepts 24–56V DC.
This makes the L009 suitable for installations where power is supplied from a compatible PoE switch or injector rather than a local DC adapter.
Modern ARM Hardware
At the heart of the L009UiGS-2HaxD-IN is a dual-core IPQ-5018 ARM processor running at 800 MHz. The router includes 512 MB DDR3L RAM and 128 MB NAND storage.
This hardware platform provides substantially more memory than the older RB2011 family and enables modern RouterOS v7 features, including container support.
USB 3.0 and Container Support
The L009 includes a full-size USB 3.0 Type-A port with up to 1.5A USB current. MikroTik specifically highlights the combination of the ARM CPU and USB interface for container-based applications and compatible USB peripherals.
Depending on the application and RouterOS configuration, the USB interface can also be used with supported LTE modems and other compatible USB devices.
RouterOS v7 License Level 5
The L009UiGS-2HaxD-IN runs RouterOS v7 with License Level 5. RouterOS provides extensive networking functionality including routing, firewall, NAT, VLAN, VPN, DHCP, traffic management, monitoring and other network services.
The ARM-based hardware also supports container functionality, making the L009 suitable for more advanced network and software workloads than a basic consumer WiFi router.
Ethernet Performance
MikroTik’s official test results show the L009UiGS-2HaxD-IN can reach multi-gigabit aggregate performance in certain bridging and routing test configurations. For example, MikroTik reports approximately 3.43 Gbps in its 1518-byte fast-path bridging test and approximately 3.42 Gbps in its 1518-byte fast-path routing test. These are laboratory measurements under specified test conditions and should not be interpreted as guaranteed real-world throughput.
Compact Enclosure and Mounting
The L009UiGS-2HaxD-IN measures approximately 220 × 125 × 22 mm. Its enclosure is designed for indoor use and can be placed on a desktop or mounted on a wall. The enclosure also functions as a heatsink for passive cooling.
An optional K-79 rackmount kit can be used when rack installation is required. MikroTik’s L009 design also allows multiple compatible L009 units to be installed efficiently in rack space using the appropriate mounting accessories.
