Rack-mount firewall appliance

The Partaker R6-C3958-8G-256G is a 1U network security device built around an Intel Atom C3958 processor with AES-NI hardware encryption. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4 RAM and a 256 GB NVME SSD, ready for immediate deployment. The platform targets administrators who need a compact, rackable gateway for branch offices or data-centre edge positions.

Sustained throughput with silent cooling

A 25 W TDP and a ball-bearing silent fan keep the chassis within commercial operating limits of 0 to 50 °C during continuous firewall inspection. The Atom C3958 runs at up to 2.0 GHz without throttling, so encryption offload remains steady under long-duration VPN or intrusion-prevention loads. Six Gigabit RJ-45 ports and four 10 GbE SFP+ interfaces provide wire-speed forwarding without fan-noise spikes.

Upgrade path from single-GbE boxes

This appliance replaces older 1U firewalls limited to four or fewer 1 GbE ports and no 10 GbE uplinks. The jump is worth it when aggregated WAN circuits exceed 1 Gbps or when IPsec tunnel counts grow beyond what a dual-core platform can sustain. Buyers who need more than 64 GB of RAM or additional PCIe expansion slots should evaluate larger chassis instead.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power does the 25 W TDP Atom C3958 produce under 24/7 load?

The 25 W TDP and ball-bearing silent fan keep heat and noise low during continuous operation.

Which cables and modules must I supply to use the 4 x SFP+ X553 10 GbE ports?

You need compatible SFP+ transceivers and fibre or direct-attach cables; they are not included.

Will my legacy 1 GbE switches connect directly to the six RJ-45 ports?

Yes, the six Intel I211 and I350 ports auto-negotiate 10/100/1000 Mbps for existing copper gear.
