Interfaces: 8 x 10M/100M/1GBASE-T RJ-45 + 8 x 1/10G SFP+ (up to 24 Ethernet ports with network modules); 1 x 1/10G SFP management
Form Factor: 1RU rack-mount appliance
Curation Review
✔ Pros:10 Gbps-class firewall and threat-prevention throughput in a 1RU chassis; 1.5M concurrent sessions and 90,000 new connections/sec with AVC; 5.5 Gbps IPsec VPN with up to 2,000 peers; 8 x RJ-45 plus 8 x 1/10G SFP+ ports for mixed copper and fiber; optional redundant 400W AC or DC power supplies; supports both FTD and ASA software images
✘ Cons:No clustering support on the 3105 (the larger 3100 models cluster); VPN offload projection not listed for FTD; threat features and subscriptions (threat, malware, URL filtering) are licensed separately and add to total cost; third-party listings conflict on interface configuration and performance figures; few user reviews specific to the 3105; list prices are high relative to throughput and resellers vary widely

Interfaces: 2x 10G SFP+ ports; 8x 1GbE RJ45 LAN ports; 1x 2.5GbE RJ45 WAN port (sources conflict on WAN; one lists a 25GbE WAN port)
Form Factor: 1U rackmount
Curation Review
✔ Pros:5 Gbps IDS/IPS rating from Ubiquiti; 10G SFP+ ports for fast uplinks or LAN; Multi-WAN support with 2.5GbE WAN; Integrated UniFi Network controller and UniFi OS for centralized management; Built-in NVR bay for UniFi Protect cameras; Rackmount 1U form factor suited to server racks
✘ Cons:Ubiquiti does not publish firewall, VPN, or session-rate figures; Real-world WAN throughput in independent tests is about 3-4.7 Gbps, below the 5 Gbps IDS/IPS rating; Port layout and WAN specs differ between sources; Costs about 2x the UDM Pro (about $220 more) for a modest throughput gain; Limited 1GbE LAN port count compared with dedicated switches; Requires UniFi ecosystem for full feature set
