Check Point 19100
2U data centre firewall with four slots and 35 Gbps Threat Prevention.

Overview
The Force 19100 serves data centre projects that combine inspection with a broader distribution of interfaces. It has four card slots, 32 physical cores and dedicated management and synchronisation connections. Plus includes two 960 GB NVMe SSDs and Lights-Out Management. The choice of 1/10, 10/25 and 40/100 GbE cards allows the appliance to be matched to the links and availability architecture. Selection criteria: Prioritise this model when four expansion slots are important to the data centre topology. Size the 35 Gbps prevention and 10.2 Gbps TLS web mix figures separately from accelerated firewall throughput. Confirm the SKU's RAM: the Base table specifies 64 GB, but the highlights section omits that capacity. Performance note: Manufacturer reference values measured with different test profiles. Actual capacity varies with traffic, version, memory, blades, TLS inspection and policy. Do not add throughput figures together or use interface speed as prevention capacity.
