Need a wired router that won’t slow you down or drain your budget? The new hEX S is a compact, truly budget-friendly device that does a little bit of everything — and does it fast. Whether you’re building a smart home, running a local lab, or just want a clean, powerful wired setup, this is your new Ethernet essential.

With 5× Gigabit Ethernet ports (including PoE-in on port #1 and PoE-out on port #5), plus a 2.5 Gigabit SFP cage, this compact router can adapt to many roles. And unlike most ISP boxes, you can assign any port as WAN, LAN, or bridge — full flexibility right out of the box. That’s just the beginning. RouterOS v7 gives you advanced routing, VLANs, bonding, traffic shaping, and more — so you can build the wired network you’ve always wanted.

Got a 2 Gbps fiber plan? Use the 2.5G SFP port to deliver that speed to your power-hungry devices — from self-hosted movie servers to media workstations or security camera NVRs. Perfect for homes, small offices, and media studios.

Connect your PC over 2.5G, then bond two 1G ports to your NAS. Enjoy ultra-fast file transfers, smooth backups, and zero bottlenecks — ideal for creators, editors, and researchers who work with large files.
