The CWWK F5 is a 6-port 2.5GbE firewall mini PC based on CWWK's flagship N-Series motherboard platform. It is currently available with Intel N150, Core i3-N300, and Core 3 N355 processors and combines six Intel i226-V 2.5GbE LAN ports, DDR5 memory, dual M.2 NVMe storage, VESA mounting support, optional 8010 fan expansion, and an official aluminum chassis with an internal copper-alloy heat-conduction plate.

Intel N150, N300 and N355 Processor Options

The F5 is currently available with three Intel N-Series configurations. The N150 is suited to firewall and routing workloads, while the 8-core N300 and N355 provide additional CPU resources for virtualization, containers, VPN services, and multi-service home labs.

N150 4 cores / 4 threads. Suitable for OPNsense, pfSense, OpenWrt, routing, VLAN segmentation, VPN, and everyday network services.

N300 8 cores / 8 threads. Provides additional CPU resources for Proxmox, containers, multi-service networking, and home lab workloads.

N355 8 cores / 8 threads. The higher-performance option for virtualization, VPN services, and more demanding network deployments.

Six Intel i226-V 2.5GbE Network Ports

Six Intel i226-V 2.5GbE LAN ports provide dedicated physical interfaces for Multi-WAN routing, isolated LAN segments, NAS connectivity, wireless access points, IoT devices, guest networks, cameras, and home lab environments.

6 × 2.5GbE Assign dedicated interfaces to WAN, LAN, NAS, access points, cameras, IoT equipment, or test networks.

Multi-WAN Configure multiple upstream connections for failover, load balancing, or separate gateway routes.

Network Segmentation Separate trusted devices, servers, guests, IoT equipment, and lab systems using physical ports or VLANs.

Flagship Motherboard, DDR5 and Dual NVMe Storage

The F5 uses CWWK's flagship 6-port N-Series motherboard with six Intel i226-V 2.5GbE controllers, one SO-DIMM DDR5 memory slot, two M.2 NVMe SSD positions, and one SATA 3.0 interface. This provides storage flexibility for the operating system, logs, virtual machines, containers, and additional local data.

Official Chassis with Copper Alloy Heat Conduction

178.3 × 145.4 × 58.7 mm

17.83 × 14.54 × 5.87 cm
7.02 × 5.72 × 2.31 in

Official Chassis Copper Alloy Plate Heat-Dissipation Fins VESA Mounting 8010 Fan Supported

The F5's defining thermal feature is its internal copper-alloy heat-conduction plate. The plate transfers processor heat toward the aluminum chassis, where the external heat-dissipation fins provide additional surface area for thermal transfer.

For sustained workloads or environments that require additional airflow, the F5 also supports an optional 12V 4-pin 80 × 80 × 10 mm 8010 cooling fan. The fan is sold separately.

OPNsense, pfSense, OpenWrt and Proxmox Compatibility

The F5 supports OPNsense, pfSense, OpenWrt, Proxmox, Linux, Ubuntu, Debian, ESXi, Windows, and other compatible x86 operating systems. Its six physical network interfaces make it suitable for firewall routing, VLAN segmentation, Multi-WAN, VPN gateways, virtualized network services, and home lab deployments.

Firewall & Routing Deploy OPNsense, pfSense, OpenWrt, Multi-WAN, VPN gateways, and VLAN routing.

Home Lab Run virtual firewalls, containers, lightweight servers, and network services on one compact platform.

Small Network Separate NAS systems, access points, cameras, office devices, guests, and IoT equipment.

Front and Rear I/O Connectivity

The F5 provides front and rear interfaces for networking, local system installation, display output, USB peripherals, storage access, and power. Six Intel i226-V 2.5GbE LAN interfaces form the core of the system's firewall and routing connectivity.

FAQ

What makes the CWWK F5 different from the F7, F9 and F11?

The F5, F7, F9 and F11 use the same flagship 6-port N-Series motherboard platform and all support VESA mounting and an optional 8010 cooling fan. The F5 is distinguished by its official chassis and internal copper-alloy heat-conduction plate, which transfers processor heat toward the aluminum enclosure.

What are the dimensions of the CWWK F5?

The CWWK F5 measures 178.3 × 145.4 × 58.7 mm, or 17.83 × 14.54 × 5.87 cm. In inches, it measures approximately 7.02 × 5.72 × 2.31 in.

How does the F5 copper-alloy heat-conduction plate work?

The internal copper-alloy plate conducts heat away from the processor toward the aluminum chassis. The external heat-dissipation fins then increase the available surface area for transferring that heat to the surrounding air.

Does the F5 support VESA mounting?

Yes. The F5 chassis includes bottom mounting points that support VESA installation.

Can I install an 8010 cooling fan in the F5?

Yes. The F5 supports an optional 12V 4-pin 80 × 80 × 10 mm 8010 cooling fan. The fan is sold separately and can be purchased here .
