1U Rackmount Firewall Appliance
The Partaker R11 is a 19-inch 1U cabinet-type network security device built around an Intel Core i7-3520M processor with AES-NI support. It ships with 8 GB of DDR3 memory and a 256 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 gateway duties. The unit includes a 100 W universal power supply and a ball-bearing silent cooling fan.
Verify Rack Space and OS Choice
Confirm you have 1U of clearance in a standard 19-inch rack or a suitable wall-mount location; the chassis measures 430 x 250 x 50 mm and weighs 6.5 kg. The platform runs any FreeBSD-based router distribution, Linux or Windows, so decide whether you will install pfSense, OPNsense, Untangle or another open-source firewall before deployment. Ensure your network design can use six RJ-45 ports operating at 10/100/1000 Mbps with a tested forwarding throughput of 1 Gbps.
Integrates as a Standalone Gateway
The appliance slots directly into a rack or mounts on a wall using the included bracket ears and foot pads, drawing 100–240 V AC from the supplied cord. Its low-power motherboard and dedicated turbo fan keep heat output minimal for continuous operation. The six Intel 82583V/82574L controllers free the CPU for encryption and packet inspection, while the spare drive bay allows local logging or cache expansion without additional external storage.

Questions about this item
Does the R11-I7 3520M arrive with rack-mount ears and a power cord, or must they be ordered separately?
The packing list includes the firewall appliance, rack-mount ears and a power cord, so the unit is ready to install in a 19-inch rack without extra purchases.
Is the installed 8 GB DDR3 SODIMM the maximum the motherboard accepts, or can it be upgraded further?
The memory slot supports DDR3/L at 1333/1600 MT/s with a maximum of 8 GB, so the fitted module already reaches the board limit.
What real-world throughput can I expect from the six Intel Gigabit LAN ports when the box runs pfSense or OPNsense?
The manufacturer states WAN-to-LAN forwarding through one gigabit NIC reaches 1 Gbps, and the six Intel 82583V/82574L controllers are tested to exceed that rate.
