1 Introduction
AR-B5800A is designed for rack-mounted platform for networking appliance, e.g. VPN, SSL, UTM
or firewall. With Intel advanced Core 2 Quad / Duo / Pentium / Celeron CPU, AR-B5800A is a
powerful platform to satisfy different applications. By eight 10/100/1000Mbps LANs and two fiber
SFP ports, the AR-B5800A is sufficient for the small to middle size business security solution.
AR-B5800A can install 2 x HDD for RAID 0/1 redundancy. Customers don’t need to worry about
data lost due to HDD defected problem. BIOS, GPIO and Jumper can control LAN bypass feature.
It provides flexibility to access Internet by user setting.
Key features:
1. Support Intel Core 2 Quad or Core 2 Duo or Pentium or Celeron CPU
2. Intel G41 + ICH7R Chipset to support RAID 0/1 redundancy
3. DDRIII DIMM x 2, up to 4GB memory
4. Intel 82574L 10/100/1000Mbps x 6 + 82541PI 10/100/1000Mbps x 2
5. Two pairs LAN ports support bypass feature (LAN 1/2 + LAN 3/4)
6. Support two fiber SFP ports (Optic A / Optic B)
7. LAN bypass can be controlled by BIOS, GPIO and Jumper
8. CF socket, 2.5” HDD x 2, SATA II interface x 2
9. Console, VGA (pinhead), USB 2.0 x 4 (2 x connectors, 2 x pin head)
10. Support boot from LAN, console redirection
