The MikroTik CCR2216-1G-12XS-2XQ is a high-performance Cloud Core Router designed for networks that require extremely fast fiber connectivity, large routing tables, and sustained throughput. It is commonly deployed in ISP, WISP, and enterprise core or aggregation roles where multiple 25G and 100G links are required.

This model is often considered a practical replacement for older high-end CCR platforms such as the CCR1072-1G-8S+, offering higher port density and newer hardware architecture.
