About the MX68-HW
The MX68-HW is a small-branch Meraki MX, managed from the Meraki Dashboard. It handles 700 Mbps of firewall traffic and 400 Mbps with advanced security services on, runs up to 50 site-to-site VPN tunnels at up to 400 Mbps, and is sized for a branch with up to 50 devices.
Two dedicated 1G WAN ports let it use two internet links. Its 10 RJ-45 LAN ports include two PoE+ ports at up to 30 W each, enough to power a small device such as an access point. It sits on a desk or mounts on a wall and runs from a 100 W external power adapter.
The MX68W-HW is the same appliance with built-in Wi-Fi (802.11a/n/ac). The MX67-HW is the smaller sibling, with one WAN port and four LAN ports at the same 700 Mbps.
