Announcement: Vault Pro VP2430 Launch
We’ve heard your requests loud and clear: more Vaults with the latest Intel® N-series CPUs. It took us a little longer than planned, but we think it was worth the wait.
Introducing the latest addition to the Vault Pro series, the VP2430. It builds on the success of the VP2410 and VP2420, offering enhanced performance, improved thermal management, and expanded networking capabilities.
Designed around Intel’s new N150 Quad-Core CPU, the VP2430 delivers reliable performance for everything from firewalls and routing to home labs and professional applications.
Why the wait? As much as we love the N100 series, we knew the N150 was on the horizon.With improved performance and the same efficient power profile, it made sense to build on that.
As with every Protectli Vault, we insist on taking the extra time to fully test and qualify the hardware. We work hard to make sure coreboot, our custom open-source firmware alternative, is available as soon as possible because we know how much trust you put in these devices.
The Vault Pro VP2430 Features:
- Intel® N150 quad-core CPU (6MB Cache, up to 3.6GHz)
- 4x Intel® I226-V 2.5GbE ports
- Up to 64GB SO-DIMM DDR5-4800 RAM*
- Integrated 32GB eMMC storage
- 3x M.2 slots for optional NVMe SSDs, WiFi 6E cards, and LTE/4G/5G modems
- coreboot firmware available now
*Intel® Specsheets claim the N150 CPU officially supports up to 16GB of RAM, but we’ve successfully tested and qualified multiple modules up to 64GB. Please reference the VP2430 Hardware Overview linked below for the specific qualified modules or select one as a pre-installed option.
The VP2430 also includes a fanless, all-aluminum chassis that acts as a passive heatsink for silent operation and durability, even in less-than-ideal environments. A modular internal heatsink design improves component cooling and allows for easy 2.5″ SSD installation. It also includes an RS232 header for integrating GPS or other sensors depending on your application needs.
When compared to the VP2420, the VP2430 offers a substantial performance upgrade, scoring 46.6% higher on PassMark, supporting faster DDR5 RAM with up to 50% more bandwidth, and delivering nearly double the VPN speeds: ~101% faster on OpenVPN and ~88% faster on WireGuard.
