MikroTik RDS2216-2XG-4S+4XS-2XQ Rose Data Server

The MikroTik RDS2216 Rose Data Server redefines what a single device can offer for enterprise infrastructure. Designed for organizations that demand total control over their networking, storage, and compute environments, the RDS2216 consolidates multiple data center functions into one compact, power-efficient platform. This 1U rackmount server features 20 hot-swappable U.2 NVMe drive bays, a powerful 16-core ARM CPU, and up to 100G networking—all managed via RouterOS v7 (ROSE edition), with no licensing fees or subscription barriers.

Ideal for object storage (MinIO), self-hosted apps (Nextcloud), database clusters, containerized environments, and private cloud hosting, the RDS2216 enables massive storage scalability, ultra-low-latency networking, and advanced encryption support. Built-in redundancy features—including dual hot-swappable PSUs and 10 cooling fans—ensure high availability in mission-critical deployments.

• Enterprise-Grade Storage: 20 × PCIe Gen3 U.2 NVMe bays (7 mm height) for ultra-fast local storage and modular RAID configurations.
• Extreme Connectivity: 2 × 100G QSFP28, 4 × 25G SFP28, 4 × 10G SFP+, 2 × 10G Ethernet, 1 × 1G RJ45, and SFF-8644 expansion port.
• High-Performance Compute: 16-core 2.0 GHz ARM64 CPU (AL73400) with 32 GB ECC DDR4 RAM for seamless networking and virtualization.
• Energy Efficient Design: Operates at only 105W (typical) and 286W (max) with dual-redundant hot-swappable power supplies.
• Container-Ready: Run OCI-compliant containers like MinIO, Nextcloud, and Frigate directly in RouterOS for full-stack deployment.
• Advanced Storage & Networking: Supports NVMe-TCP, iSCSI, L3 hardware offloading, RAID, and encrypted block devices.
• Eco-Friendly & Silent: Fan-controlled ventilation and energy-saving architecture designed for long-term sustainability.
• No Subscriptions. No Lock-In: Owned outright with RouterOS Level 6—offering modular tools and full administrative freedom.
