Compact firewall appliance

The Partaker 32G is a desktop security appliance built around an Intel Core i5-1235U processor with 32GB of DDR4 memory and a 1TB NVME drive. Six Intel 2.5GbE LAN ports provide high-throughput wired connectivity for routing, VPN and intrusion-prevention tasks. The fan-cooled aluminium chassis measures 186 x 126.5 x 66mm and weighs 1.3 kgs.

Sustained load behaviour

A 15W TDP and PWM-controlled fan keep the system stable during continuous packet inspection and encrypted tunnel workloads. The operating range spans 0°C to 50°C with commercial storage or -20°C to 50°C with an industrial SSD, while humidity tolerance reaches 95% non-condensing. Dual-channel memory up to 64GB supports demanding rule sets without throttling.

Pre-order checklist

Verify that your rack or shelf accommodates the 186 x 126.5 x 66mm footprint and 12V DC input. Confirm the three M.2 slots (2280 M-key, 2230 E-key, 3052/2242 B-key) match any planned WiFi6 or 4G/5G expansion cards. Ensure the six RJ-45 ports align with your cabling plan and that the single HDMI and DisplayPort 1.4a outputs meet monitoring needs.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the 15W TDP fan get when the firewall runs continuously?

The 15W TDP is managed by a PWM intelligent temperature-control fan combined with active and passive heat dissipation, keeping the chassis within the 0 °C to 50 °C commercial operating range.

Which cables or modules must I already have to use the six 2.5GbE ports and the M.2 expansion slots?

You need six RJ-45 Ethernet cables for the 2.5GbE LAN ports; WiFi6 or 4G/5G modules for the 2230 E-key and 3052 B-key M.2 slots are optional and not included.

Will my existing Cat5e patch cables limit the 2.5GbE throughput on the i226-V ports?

Cat5e supports 2.5GbE up to 100 m, so existing cables will not bottleneck the six Intel i226-V 2.5GbE interfaces.
