    Logic Supply’s Perimeter B4 appliance includes 3 gigabit ports and 1 FastEthernet port.\r\n\r\n

    \r\nSee George Ou’s blog for details on the IPCop/Copfilter appliance.

  • The noise level is moderate with the three small fans inside (1 for CPU and 2 for chassis). It’s a lot quieter than your 1U Cisco switch or router and quieter than some PCs.\r\n\r\n

    \r\nSee George Ou’s blog for details on the IPCop/Copfilter appliance.

  • Inside the chassis you’ll find a standard mini-ITX Jetway J7F2WE-1G motherboard with 1 GHz Via C7 processor, which is plenty of performance for a gateway device like this. \r\n\r\n

  • Here I detached the hard drive and the Gigabit Ethernet daughter card. The hard drive is a standard 2.5-inch PATA IDE hard drive mounted on a metal holder. \r\n\r\n

    \r\nSee George Ou’s blog for details on the IPCop/Copfilter appliance.

  • The system comes with a 10/100 FastEthernet interface on the motherboard and a 3-port gigabit Ethernet card which uses three Realtek RTL8110SC network processing chips all compatible with Linux and BSD.\r\n\r\n
