Hardware firewall SecurePoint RC1000RR G6 — throughput 59 Gbit/s, VPN 6.9 Gbit/s, 1000 users, SSD storage, 1U rack

SecurePoint RC1000RR G6 is a 1U hardware firewall offering high-performance perimeter protection for medium to large networks. It delivers up to 59 Gbit/s firewall throughput, 3.5 Gbit/s HTTP-proxy throughput and 6.9 Gbit/s VPN throughput, supports AES encryption algorithms, wired Ethernet links up to 2500 Mbit/s, RJ-45 console access and onboard SSD storage. The appliance is designed to serve up to 1000 users and is intended for scenarios requiring site-to-site VPNs, secure web filtering and centrally managed access control.

Advantages

The appliance combines high throughput with dedicated VPN performance and SSD storage, enabling responsive inspection, proxying and secure tunnels for many concurrent users. Its 1U rack form factor allows installation in standard server racks while wired Ethernet at multi-gigabit rates and an RJ-45 console port provide straightforward connectivity and management. Support for AES-based security ensures compatibility with common encryption standards used in enterprise environments.

Suitable for

• Enterprise perimeter firewall for medium to large offices or data centres
• Site-to-site and remote-access VPN termination
• Secure web filtering and HTTP-proxy for user fleets
• Environments requiring multi-gigabit wired Ethernet connectivity

When it may not be suitable

This appliance is intended for deployments that need high aggregated throughput and support for up to 1000 users. It may be unnecessary for very small offices or home environments where lower-throughput, lower-cost solutions are sufficient. For use cases requiring more than 1000 concurrently managed users or significantly higher VPN aggregate throughput than specified, a larger or clustered solution should be considered.

How to use

Install the RC1000RR G6 in a standard 19-inch rack occupying one U of rack space and connect the WAN and LAN interfaces to your network switches using appropriate Ethernet cables supporting the required data rates. Access the device through the RJ-45 console port for initial configuration or via the management interface once network access is established. Configure firewall policies, VPN tunnels and HTTP-proxy or web-filtering rules according to your network security policy, and monitor performance to ensure throughput meets your requirements.

What to consider before purchase

• Assess your peak aggregated firewall and VPN throughput requirements against the specified 59 Gbit/s and 6.9 Gbit/s figures
• Confirm the expected number of concurrent users does not exceed 1000
• Ensure your rack space, power (360 W) and cooling meet appliance requirements
• Verify that multi-gigabit wired Ethernet (up to 2500 Mbit/s) is compatible with your switches and cabling

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, place the appliance in a temperature-controlled rack with adequate airflow, keep firmware up to date, and size your network architecture so that WAN/LAN links do not become bottlenecks relative to the firewall and VPN throughput capabilities.
