BKHD C3758 10GbE Network Server Appliance – 8 Core Intel Atom C3758 + 8GB RAM

The BKHD C3758 is a versatile x86 network appliance designed for firewall, routing, VPN, network monitoring, edge-computing and industrial gateway applications.

This configuration is powered by an Intel Atom C3758 processor with eight CPU cores, 16 MB cache and a frequency of up to 2.20 GHz. It includes 8 GB of DDR4 memory, providing a capable platform for open-source and commercial network operating systems.

Four SFP+ interfaces provide high-speed 10 Gigabit connectivity for fibre links, switches, servers and storage networks. Four additional RJ45 Ethernet interfaces support copper network connections for WAN, LAN and segmented network deployments.

The appliance also provides six configurable RS232/RS485 serial interfaces and GPIO connectivity, making it suitable for industrial equipment, telemetry, automation and edge gateway deployments.

Its standard x86 architecture allows it to run compatible firewall, router, VPN and server software, including pfSense, OPNsense, MikroTik RouterOS CHR, OpenWrt x86, VyOS and Linux-based applications.
