Purpose-built firewall appliance
The Partaker R9 is a 1U rack-mount network appliance built around an Intel Core i5-3470 processor with AES-NI acceleration. It ships with 8 GB of DDR3 memory and a 128 GB mSATA SSD, ready for immediate deployment. Six Intel Gigabit Ethernet ports provide high-throughput WAN and LAN connectivity. The platform targets administrators who need a dedicated box for pfSense, OPNsense, Untangle or other FreeBSD- and Linux-based router distributions.
Thermals and power in normal use
A 150 W internal supply runs from 100–240 V at 50/60 Hz to power the system. The CPU is cooled by a ball-bearing silent fan designed for continuous operation. The low-power industrial motherboard and compact 430 x 270 x 50 mm chassis keep heat output modest during typical forwarding loads. Throughput testing shows line-rate performance at 1000 Mbps across the six LAN interfaces.
Bundled accessories and software impact
The package includes rack-mount ears, a power cord and a warranty card so the unit can be installed in a standard 19-inch cabinet or wall-mounted without extra hardware. AES-NI support in the processor accelerates VPN encryption on supported firewall distributions. Dual SO-DIMM slots allow memory expansion up to 32 GB, and a 2.5/3.5-inch drive bay provides additional local storage for logs or packages.

Questions about this item
How do I rack-mount the 1U chassis and what step is often missed?
Attach the included ears to the 430 mm wide chassis, slide it into a 19 inch rack and secure all four screws; the step often missed is tightening the rear brackets so the 6.5 kg unit cannot shift under vibration.
Which components will need replacement first during long-term operation?
The ball-bearing cooling fan is the only moving part and will wear out before the solid-state SSD or the Intel 82574/82583/I211 network controllers; DDR3 memory slots support up to 32 GB if you later need more capacity.
What throughput limit appears first when the appliance runs at full load continuously?
The six Gigabit LAN ports cap sustained WAN-to-LAN forwarding at 1000 Mbps, so aggregate traffic above 1 Gbps will queue at the NICs before the i5-3470 or 8 GB RAM become bottlenecks.
