MikroTik netPower Lite 7R | Outdoor Reverse PoE Reverse Switch
Price$139
The MikroTik netPower Lite 7R (CSS610-1Gi-7R-2S+OUT) is the ultimate solution for the "Last Mile" connectivity challenge. Designed specifically with the African and Middle Eastern ISP markets in mind, this switch allows service providers to deliver high-speed internet without worrying about finding a local power source at every pole. By drawing power from the end-users themselves, it is a game-changer for neighborhood fiber and Ethernet deployments in Lagos, Nairobi, and suburban UAE.
- Reverse PoE Technology: 7 out of 8 Gigabit ports can receive power from your customers' routers (Passive PoE).
- 10G Fiber Uplinks: Equipped with two 10G SFP+ ports for high-capacity backhaul connections.
- Weatherproof Enclosure: IP54-rated outdoor housing designed to withstand dust and rain.
- Zero-Power Grid Dependency: No need for an expensive AC power connection on the street pole.
- Power Redundancy: Includes a DC jack and a 2-pin terminal for optional local power backup.
- SwOS Simplicity: Easy-to-use web interface for managing VLANs, port isolation, and bandwidth.

The netPower Lite 7R is designed to significantly reduce the CAPEX and OPEX of outdoor network deployments. In many regions across Africa, securing a stable and legal power connection for a street-side switch can be a bureaucratic nightmare. The netPower Lite 7R bypasses this entirely: it takes the power it needs from the subscribers it serves.
With its two 10G SFP+ ports, you are no longer limited by 1Gbps bottlenecks. You can run a 10G fiber ring through your neighborhood and use the netPower Lite 7R to drop Gigabit Ethernet connections to individual homes. It is the most cost-effective way to build a high-speed, modern network in areas where traditional infrastructure is difficult to install.

Where to Use This Product
1. FTTB / ETTH (Ethernet to the Home)
The primary use case for ISPs in South Africa, Nigeria, and Kenya. Install the switch on a utility pole or in an apartment building basement. The customers power the switch from their homes, and the switch provides them with high-speed internet.
2. WISP Distribution Points
For Wireless ISPs in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, the netPower Lite 7R can act as a high-speed distribution node on a tower or rooftop, connecting multiple subscriber radio units and sending the data back via 10G fiber.
3. Multi-Tenant Units (MTUs)
Perfect for small apartment blocks or office complexes. Instead of running expensive fiber to every single unit, run fiber to the netPower Lite 7R and distribute high-quality shielded Ethernet to the tenants.
4. Community Wi-Fi Projects
In rural or semi-urban development projects, this switch can be used to power a series of outdoor Access Points by daisy-chaining power from a central location or receiving power from participating community members.
