Compact fanless firewall appliance

The Partaker C5 is a desktop network security device built around an Intel Celeron J4125 quad-core processor. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4-2400 memory and a 512 GB M.2 2280 SATA SSD. Four Intel I210/I211-AT Gigabit LAN ports provide wired connectivity. The fanless aluminium chassis measures 144 x 126.5 x 42 mm and operates from 0 °C to 50 °C.

Suits single-box gateway deployments

This appliance fits installations that need a ready-to-run router, VPN endpoint or firewall running pfSense, OPNsense or similar FreeBSD and Linux distributions. AES-NI acceleration helps with encrypted throughput. Builders who require more than four LAN ports, 10 GbE uplinks, SFP+ cages or a second 2.5-inch drive bay should consider other hardware.

AES-NI support on J4125 CPU

The Intel Celeron J4125 includes AES-NI instructions, a single specification that determines whether modern encrypted routing workloads will run efficiently. Without hardware acceleration, VPN and IDS/IPS performance drops sharply on this class of processor.

Questions about this item

Will the single DDR4 SODIMM slot let me expand beyond the installed 16 GB later?

The board accepts one DDR4-2400 SODIMM up to 32 GB, so you can double the memory by swapping the module.

Which component hits its ceiling first when all four Intel I210/I211 ports run at full 1000 Mbps?

The J4125 tops out at 10 W TDP; sustained line-rate traffic on four gigabit ports will push the CPU before the network controllers saturate.

How hot does the fanless aluminium case get during 24/7 operation?

Rated for 0–50 °C with a commercial drive or –20 to +60 °C with an industrial SSD, the passively cooled chassis stays within those limits at 10 W.
