## Overview

The Protectli Vault FW2B is a compact, fanless mini PC designed as a high-performance firewall appliance. Powered by an Intel Dual Core Celeron processor with AES-NI encryption acceleration, it features 8GB DDR3L RAM, a 120GB mSATA SSD, and dual Intel Gigabit Ethernet ports. Its silent, durable aluminum chassis supports multiple open-source firewall OS options, making it the go-to choice for professionals seeking secure, reliable, and customizable network protection.

## Description

The Protectli Vault is a small size PC for use as a micro firewall, mini PC, router. Thanks to its fanless design, the boot is completely silent, very compact and can be placed anywhere. Tested compatibility: The Vault has been tested with many of the most popular open-source software firewall solutions. Compatibility: pfSense CE, unravel, OPNsense, VyOS, Security Onion, VyOSm, CentOS 7, *BSD, Linux, Windows and others. Protectli offers an optional coreboot open source firmware for your hardware for maximum security, transparency, and auditability. For an extra layer of security, Protectli will soon offer secureboot in conjunction with coreboot. The FW2B is based on a 2-port network design that leverages a low-power, yet versatile dual-core Intel Celeron J3060 processor. This processor supports AES-NI, Intel hardware acceleration for encryption. The vault uses standard Intel components (including Intel network ports), resulting in compatibility with a variety of operating systems, including a number of open source firewall projects. The trunk is fanless, so it has no moving parts, resulting in an incredibly durable platform that can be used in less than ideal environments. Its all-aluminum housing (no plastic here) is a giant heatsink, keeping the processor cool. The case also comes with pre-drilled holes for an available Protectli wireless kit. The FW2B can accommodate up to 8GB DDR3L-1600 RAM and a 1TB mSATA storage drive. More information on the website Protectli

Review: The photos for the product showed a power adapter that comes with several different plug types for different contries. The supplied power supply is not only a different style, but does not come with these adapters, meaning I am unable to plug the device in without first purchasing another power supply, which I could have done at the same time had I known.
Review: This thing has been great. It's the perfect router/firewall for my home. It's silent and reliable. Protectli also has a great little UPS to use with this.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: My isp provides 600mbps, will this device be a bottle neck running pfsense ?**
A: The answer is much more nuanced than a simple 'yes' or 'no'.  Primarily, the answer depends on: 1) What software you're planning to run and 2) What services you plan to enable on that software.  For example, if you run vanilla OPNsense (out of the box configuration) then you can expect to get wire speed (~930Mbps) throughput with a synthetic benchmark tool like iperf.  If you plan to run IPS / IDS and / or VPN, then you can expect much reduced throughput, depending on what the exact configuration is.  Protectli has knowledgebase articles that we've posted on the Protectli web site that help to set a baseline of performance expectations.

**Q: Is this a better model than this to run pfSense? https://amzn.to/2UcqY86**
A: The primary difference between these two models is 2 ports vs. 4.  Either will work great for running pfSense, though another user noted that on the FW4A (this unit is the FW2B), a BIOS configuration change is needed to get pfSense to run properly.  (this will ultimately be addressed with a default BIOS configuration change and it can be worked around by following the docs available on our site).  Additionally, this unit is a smaller (physical) form factor than the 4 port unit.  It runs hot (to the touch), but this is expected and even under a heavy load, the CPU will operate within tolerable limits.  If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out to us via the support link on our website.

**Q: How & can the usb be used as a basic nas?
   if so, how?,  and are they auto-enabled & auto-configured under the subnet local-host?**
A: These devices can be used as a NAS with an operating system installed that supports such functionality.  There is only 1 internal mSATA drive (960GB available drive size) as well as an internal SATA port (though no room inside the chassis to mount a drive).  You can attach USB connected external drives, though this is less than ideal for a 'proper' NAS.

**Q: What is the VGA port for?**
A: The 2 port Protectli Vault with the dual core Celleron does not have a VGA port... at least not the one in this picture which is the one Injabe. For video display this model has 2 HDMI ports.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by S***S on 23 February 2026*

I've been using a Protectli Vault FW2B, with pfSense installed, as my home firewall for a few years now. If you're comfortable with Linux, it's a delight. I had no idea of how many friends I had in China and Russia until I installed this device.
