Compact four-port firewall appliance
The Partaker 16G is a fanless desktop appliance built around an Intel Celeron J4125 quad-core processor with AES-NI support. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4-2400 memory and a 256 GB M.2 2280 SATA SSD, ready for immediate deployment as a router, VPN gateway or unified threat management platform. The aluminium chassis measures 144 x 126.5 x 42 mm and weighs 0.7 kg.
Gigabit LAN and expansion limits
Four Intel I210/I211-AT ports provide 10/100/1000M wired connectivity, capping throughput at one gigabit per second per port. Storage expansion is limited to one additional 2.5-inch SATA drive and one M.2 2230 E-key slot for USB-based wireless modules. The Mini PCIe slot also carries only USB signals for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or 4G add-ons, not PCIe lanes.
Pre-installation checks
Verify that your chosen operating system — such as OPNsense, pfSense or a Linux distribution — supports the J4125 CPU and Intel I210/I211 network controllers. Confirm that the 12 V 4 A DC input matches your power infrastructure and that the 0 °C to 50 °C commercial or -20 °C to 60 °C industrial temperature range suits the installation site. Ensure VESA, DIN-rail or desktop mounting hardware meets your physical constraints.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 16 GB model or upgrade to the 32 GB maximum?
The unit ships with 16 GB DDR4-2400 in a single SODIMM slot. The board supports up to 32 GB, so you can add another 16 GB module later if your firewall workloads need more memory.
What does the J4125 2.0 GHz base and 2.7 GHz turbo mean for real firewall throughput?
The quad-core Celeron J4125 runs at 2.0 GHz base with AES-NI acceleration, reaching 2.7 GHz under load. That headroom handles VPN encryption, IDS/IPS and multi-WAN routing at line-rate on the four Gigabit ports.
Are the four LAN ports true 1000 Mbps or limited by the Intel I210/I211 controllers?
Each port is driven by an Intel I210 or I211-AT controller, delivering full 10/100/1000 Mbps wired throughput with no shared-bus bottleneck.
