New RB1100AHx4 Dude Edition has Annapurna Alpine AL21400 CPU with four Cortex A15 cores clocked at 1.4GHz each, for a maximum throughput of up to 7.5Gbps. The device supports IPsec hardware acceleration and is faster at it than any previous RouterBOARD device (up to 2.2Gbps with AES128).
Unit comes with 1U rackmount case, 13x Gigabit Ethernet ports, RS232 serial port and dual redundant power supplies (with -48v DC telecom power and 802.3at/af support). The RB1100AHx4 Dude edition features several high speed storage connectors (two SATA and two M.2) for using a Dude database, proxy cache or any other storage intensive feature. It includes a 60GB M.2 drive already installed.
All tests are done with Xena Networks specialized test equipment (XenaBay),and done according to RFC2544 (Xena2544)
Max throughput is determined with 30+ second attempts with 0,1% packet loss tolerance in 64, 512, 1518 byte packet sizes
Test results show device maximum performance, and are reached using mentioned hardware and software configuration, different configurations most likely will result in lower results
