1U rackmount firewall with i7-3520M

The Partaker R11 is a 19-inch 1U network appliance built around an Intel Core i7-3520M processor running up to 3.60 GHz. It ships with 8 GB of DDR3 memory and a 128 GB mSATA SSD, plus a second bay for a 2.5 or 3.5 inch drive. Six Intel Gigabit LAN ports, two USB ports, a COM console and VGA output provide the I/O needed for routing and security workloads.

Suited for open-source firewall deployments

The box runs FreeBSD-based router systems such as pfSense, OPNsense and Untangle, as well as Linux distributions and Windows. AES-NI acceleration helps with VPN throughput. Builders who need more than six LAN interfaces, 10 GbE connectivity, or greater RAM capacity than the single SODIMM slot allows should look at a different platform.

Six Intel Gigabit LAN ports decide the fit

The R11 uses six Intel 82583V or 82574L controllers, delivering a tested forwarding rate of 1000 Mbps between LAN and WAN. If your design requires more ports, higher throughput, or a different port mix, this appliance will not match the requirement.

Questions about this item

Does the R11 come with rack ears and a power cord, or must they be bought separately?

The packing list includes the R11 appliance, rackable ears and a power cord, so the unit is ready to mount and power on without extra purchases.

Should I choose the 8 GB DDR3 / 128 GB mSATA SSD configuration or look for a larger memory or storage option?

The motherboard supports one SODIMM DDR3/L module up to 8 GB at 1333/1600 MHz and one mSATA SSD plus one 2.5/3.5 inch HDD bay, so the supplied 8 GB / 128 GB build already uses the maximum RAM slot and leaves the HDD bay free for expansion.

What does the 1000 Mbps throughput figure mean when the R11 is running pfSense or OPNsense in a live network?

The supplier states that LAN-to-WAN forwarding through one gigabit NIC reaches 1 Gbps, so the headline 1000 Mbps represents the measured single-port routing ceiling under test conditions.
