Purpose-built firewall appliance

The Partaker 16G is a compact desktop security appliance powered by an Intel Core i5-1235U processor with 16GB of DDR4 memory and a 256GB NVME SSD. It provides six Intel I226-V 2.5GbE LAN ports for high-throughput routing, VPN, and intrusion prevention tasks. The fan-cooled aluminium chassis measures 186 x 126.5 x 66mm and operates from 0°C to 50°C.

Suits small-branch edge deployments

This unit fits administrators who need a ready-to-run platform for OPNsense, pfSense, or RouterOS with multiple WAN links and room for WiFi6 plus 4G/5G failover via three M.2 slots. It is not for buyers who require redundant power supplies, 10GbE uplinks, or rackmount brackets, as the hardware provides a single 12V DC input and desktop-only mounting.

Six 2.5GbE ports decide the fit

The defining specification is the six Intel I226-V 2.5GbE interfaces, which set the maximum wired throughput per segment and determine whether the appliance can replace an existing multi-port firewall without adding external switches. If the network design demands more than six copper ports or fibre connectivity, a different form factor must be chosen.

Questions about this item

Does the box include Wi-Fi or 4G/5G modules, or must they be purchased separately?

The appliance ships with the unit and a power supply only; the three M.2 slots (E-key 2230, B-key 3052/2242) are empty and ready for WiFi6 or 4G/5G modules you add yourself.

Should I pick the i5-1235U or i5-1245U version for OPNsense VPN throughput?

The supplier ships either the 1235U or 1245U at random; both are 15 W, 12-thread CPUs with AES-NI, so VPN performance will be very similar.

How much RAM can the dual-channel controller actually use with OPNsense?

Two SODIMM slots support up to 64 GB of DDR4 3200 MT/s; the unit arrives with 16 GB installed and both slots free for expansion.
