TLSense 10210U: 6x 2.5Gbps LAN, 10th gen i5 CPU, 256GB NVMe SSD, 16GB RAM

TLSense routers are intended for customers needing high VPN throughput or high IDS/IPS performance in addition to high routing performance and low latency. This model has roughly 12x better OpenVPN performance than APU.

Hardware supports pfSense®, OPNSense, OpenWRT as well as Windows, Linux, OpenBSD, and other operating systems.

See the hardware benchmark to understand how this model compares to other routers offered in the webshop.

Tips:

• You can install a regular 2.5 inch SATA drive to extend storage to multiple TB. 
• Use the HDMI port to enter into BIOS. (press F11 at boot)
• It's possible to enter BIOS using a serial cable as well. See the RJ45-serial cable.
• Note: This model does not work with the WiFi cards and internal LTE modems offered in the store.
• Compatible with laser engraving

Throughput

This hardware has been internally tested at TekLager to provide clients with reliable information.

• Full 2.5 Gigabit routing under all popular operating systems (pfSense, OPNsense, etc).
• Full 2.5 Gigabit encrypted WireGuard throughput under OpenWRT.
• See the hardware benchmark to understand how this model compares to other routers in the webshop.

Advantages over competing hardware products

• Very low power consumption for so powerful router - 15W TDP 
• Low total cost of ownership (no licensing fees, low power consumption)
• Completely silent. 0 dB - passively cooled. No moving parts.
• CPU has built-in encryption support (AES-NI), allowing for high VPN throughput.
• No artificial add-ons required to make your system fully functional
• No additional charges for extra features - everything is included: unlimited users, unlimited firewall rules, VPN accounts.
• No planned obsolescence - future versions of open-source operating systems will continue to work on this hardware.
