XCY Firewall Appliance Mini PC Intel Celeron J1900 Quad-Cores 4x LAN 2.5G i225V i226V Network Card Soft Router Pfsense OPNsense
Networking
“This mini PC pairs an Intel Celeron J1900 CPU with four 2.5Gb-capable Intel i225V/i226V NICs and explicit support for pfSense/OPNsense. It's well suited as a compact soft-router/firewall for multi-LAN setups and basic VPN throughput, but the older J1900 CPU limits encryption-intensive workloads and high-throughput VPN/Gigabit+ routing.”
