CWWK F17 6-Port 2.5GbE Firewall Mini PC

The CWWK F17 is a fanless 6-port 2.5GbE firewall mini PC based on the MBX-AD12 DDR4 platform. It combines six Intel i226-V network interfaces, dual-channel DDR4 memory, flexible NVMe and SATA storage, triple-display connectivity and a passive aluminum cooling system for firewall, routing, virtualization and home lab deployments.
Intel Pentium Gold 8505 and Intel Processor U300 Options
F17 supports Intel Pentium Gold 8505 and Intel Processor U300 configurations for network appliances, virtualization and continuously running local services.
Six Intel i226-V 2.5GbE Network Ports
Six onboard Intel i226-V controllers provide six independent 2.5GbE RJ45 interfaces without requiring an additional network expansion card.
Shared MBX-AD12 Platform with Dual-Channel DDR4
F17 and F19 share the same MBX-AD12 DDR4 motherboard platform. The board provides two SO-DIMM memory slots and supports up to 64GB DDR4 memory for virtualization, containers and multi-service workloads.
- 2 × SO-DIMM DDR4 slots
- DDR4 3200 support
- Compatible with DDR4 2400 / 2666
- Up to 64GB system memory
- 6 × Intel i226-V 2.5GbE LAN
- HDMI, DisplayPort and USB-C display output
Native NVMe, WiFi-to-NVMe and Dual 2.5-Inch SATA Storage
The MBX-AD12 platform combines one native high-speed NVMe path with an additional storage expansion option through the M.2 WiFi interface, plus two SATA connections for 2.5-inch drives.
The M.2 WiFi interface and the second NVMe configuration are mutually exclusive. When the slot is converted for the additional NVMe SSD, it cannot simultaneously be used for WiFi.
Fanless Passive Cooling with Copper-Alloy Heat Conduction
F17 uses a fanless passive thermal design. Internal copper-alloy heat-conduction components, a heat pipe and the aluminum enclosure work together to transfer processor heat away from the motherboard without requiring a CPU cooling fan.
The passive cooling structure reduces moving parts and operating noise, making F17 suitable for network appliances and installations where quiet continuous operation is preferred.
F17 also supports an optional 80 × 80 × 10 mm 8010 chassis fan when additional airflow is required by the installation environment.
View Compatible 8010 FanOfficial Aluminum Chassis with VESA Mounting
F17 uses the CWWK official aluminum chassis and measures 178.3 × 145.4 × 58.7 mm. VESA mounting support provides additional installation flexibility for desktop, wall-mounted and space-constrained deployments.
HDMI, DisplayPort and USB-C Triple Display Output
F17 provides HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort 1.4 and USB-C display connectivity for local management, desktop use and multi-monitor environments.
Firewall, Virtualization and Home Lab Deployment
Six 2.5GbE interfaces, up to 64GB DDR4 and flexible storage allow F17 to operate as more than a basic router.
