Noah3b Firewall Router Motherboard Intel E3845, 4 cores 1.91 GHz

Product detailed description

The Noah 3b motherboard (version 2025) is a modern and powerful solution building on the proven Noah3 platform, designed for demanding networking and industrial applications. It is built on the Intel E3845 processor with AES-NI support, four cores and a frequency of 1.91 GHz, ensuring high performance at low power consumption. With three gigabit LAN ports, three miniPCIe slots and memory support up to 8 GB, it is ideal for a firewall, router or security appliance. The new version adds expanded 4G/5G support, TPM, and software RAID capability with two mSATA drives. The Noah 3b is fanless hardware designed for 24/7 operation and is a full replacement for PC Engines' popular APU2 board. Noah 3b motherboard (version 2025) Intel E3845 AES-NI, 4 cores 1.91 GHz (memory up to 8 GB), 3LAN Gigabit, 3 miniPCIe, USB 2.0 Noah3 b is an evolution of the Noah3 motherboard for 2025. The improvements over Noah3 are as follows: - 4G/5G communication support with M.2 connector under the motherboard. - The ability to connect two mSATA drives, making it a fault-tolerant system with software RAID supported by FreeBSD, OPNsense, pfsense, Linux, etc. - Added a TPM connector to allow installation of a TPM for software that requires one, such as Windows 11. - Added support for a second 4G/LTE modem. - Replaced the Intel I211 network controller with the Intel I210AT, which greatly improves network speeds with four send/receive queues per port instead of two for the I211. Noah 3b is reliable and powerful fanless hardware for 24/7 devices and more. - Industrial environments (router, hardware controller, control panel interface, ...) - Telecommunications (router, IPBX, VoIP gateway, LTE, WiFi controller, etc.) - Network (firewall, router, aggregator, VPN server, NAS, video surveillance, ...)> - Security (VPN server, analyzer, packet inspector, ...) - IoT (gateway, concentrator, on-site controller, on-site analyzer, ...) - Prototyping (proof of concept, geek hobbyist, ...) Noah3b is a replacement alternative for the APU2 board from PC Engines. Noah3b was designed to facilitate the replacement of the PC Engines APU board.
