The MikroTik RB5009UPr+S+IN is a multigig router based on the Marvell
Armada 7040 SoC, sharing the same hardware base as the RB5009UG+S+IN
with added PoE-out support on all ethernet ports.

- PoE-in : 802.3af/at on p1, 24-57V
- PoE-out : 802.3af/at on p1-p8, 130 W total
- Power : DC jack / 2-pin terminal / PoE-in, 24-57V
- USB : 1x USB 3.0 type A, max 1.5 A
- LEDs/Keys (GPIO): 4x/1x
- UART : MikroTik SPI/UART combo header (10-pin, 2.0mm pitch)
- assignment : GND Vcc Rx ? GND / CLK DO /CS Tx DI (top view)

Flash instruction using initramfs image:
RouterBOOT cannot boot the OpenWrt kernel directly. A U-Boot loader
(u-boot.elf) is installed as an intermediary: RouterBOOT loads
u-boot.elf, which then loads the OpenWrt initramfs image.
1. Rename the downloaded initramfs image, removing the version number,
to: openwrt-mvebu-cortexa72-mikrotik_rb5009-initramfs-uImage.itb
2. Set up a BOOTP/TFTP server serving u-boot.elf, with the renamed
initramfs image in the same directory
3. Power off the router, hold the reset button (front panel), power on
and keep holding until the initramfs image has been served, then
release
4. The router boots the initramfs image, reachable at 192.168.1.1
5. Log in via SSH, install U-Boot, wipe NAND and flash OpenWrt:
. /lib/functions.sh
yafut -d /dev/mtd$(find_mtd_index "YAFFS") -w -i /tmp/u-boot.elf -o kernel -T
ubiformat /dev/mtd$(find_mtd_index "ubi") -y
sysupgrade /tmp/openwrt-mvebu-cortexa72-mikrotik_rb5009upr-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
Recovery:
Hold the reset button while U-Boot is booting to load the initramfs
image again. To return to RouterOS, use MikroTik Netinstall.
MAC Addresses:
MAC addresses are read from the RouterBOOT hard_config in NOR via the
macaddr_hard nvmem cell:
offset +0 p1 (2.5G, label-mac-device)
offset +1 p2
offset +2 p3
offset +3 p4
offset +4 p5
offset +5 p6
offset +6 p7
offset +7 p8
offset +8 sfp
