Netgate 8200
Double the cores, double the memory, double the power.
Combining the power of an 8-Core Intel Atom C3758R CPU with integrated QuickAssist & AES-NI along with 16 GB of memory, the Netgate 8200 provides:
- Over 80% greater firewall and VPN throughput than the Netgate 6100
- Double the firewall performance and over 70% more VPN throughput than the outgoing Netgate 7100*
