The MikroTik hAP lite TC (Model: RB941-2nD-TC) is a lightweight, budget-friendly desktop wireless router designed for small home office (SOHO) networks, student apartments, and customer premises equipment (CPE) deployments. Featuring a distinctive upright Tower Case (TC) enclosure in blue and white, it occupies minimal desk space while delivering reliable indoor wireless coverage and full enterprise routing features.
At its core, the device is powered by a Qualcomm QCA9531 single-core processor operating at 650 MHz, paired with 32 MB RAM and 16 MB flash storage. The integrated dual-chain 2.4 GHz wireless radio supports 802.11b/g/n standards with physical data rates up to 300 Mbps, driven by internal dual-polarized omnidirectional antennas with 1.5 dBi gain. A physical WPS button on the front panel allows users to quickly connect mobile devices or switch to CAPsMAN mode for centralized access point deployment.
For wired connections, the hAP lite TC includes 4x 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet RJ45 ports (1x WAN, 3x LAN). Power is supplied through a standard 5V microUSB port, allowing flexible operation using the included wall adapter or secondary USB power sources. Driven by full-featured MikroTik RouterOS Level 4, it provides complete administrative control over user access limits, bandwidth shaping queues, firewall filtering, custom guest portals, and VPN connectivity.
