13x Gigabit Ethernet ports, supporting automatic cross/straight cable correction (Auto MDI/X), so you can use either straight or cross-over cables
for connecting to other network devices. ETH13 port accepts PoE power, and can be used to boot the device from the network for reinstalling with
the Netinstall utility (see documentation)
DB9 RS232C asynchronous serial port
microSD slot
2x M.2 slots, accepting SATA type M.2 SSD disks in 2280 form factor (only Dx4 model)
2x 2.5 inch SATA connectors, accepting standard 2.5" SATA HDD disks (only Dx4 model)
Buttons and jumpers
The reset button has the following functions:
Hold this button during boot time until LED light starts flashing, release the button to reset RouterOS configuration.
Or Keep holding the button for 5 more seconds until LED turns off, then release it to make the RouterBOARD look for Netinstall servers
connected to its first Ethernet port.
The bypass switch allows binding ports 11 and 12 together in bypass mode, which means that if the device loses power, the ports will be connected
together, allowing data pass from one port to the other, as if the device would not be there.
Regardless of the above option used, the system will load the backup RouterBOOT loader if the button is pressed before power is applied to the device.
Useful for RouterBOOT debugging and recovery.
