20 Gbps SD-WAN flagship for headquarters, datacentres, and large multi-site enterprises
The Peplink Balance 1350 EC sits one tier above the Balance 580X HW2 in Peplink's enterprise stack. 20 Gbps router throughput, 10G SpeedFusion bonding, multi-rack-unit chassis with redundant power, and SpeedFusion peer counts that scale to thousands of remote sites. The natural choice for enterprise headquarters anchoring large multi-site SD-WAN, broadcast operations centre headends, financial trading floor uplinks, and large healthcare cloud aggregation. SKU BPL-1350-EC-PRM.
Why pick this over Balance 580X HW2
The Balance 580X HW2 is the right enterprise WAN edge for headquarters and large branches up to ~2,000 users. The 1350 EC sits one tier higher: more raw throughput, more SpeedFusion peers, and the chassis architecture for multi-site headend roles where the 580X would saturate. Pick the 1350 EC when:
- Throughput exceeds 8 Gbps sustained. Multiple-Gig fibre uplinks, dense user pools, or video-heavy workloads.
- SpeedFusion peer count exceeds 500. Anchoring a SpeedFusion mesh of hundreds to thousands of remote sites.
- Headend role for distributed branches. Acting as the central termination point for SpeedFusion VPN tunnels from branches running Balance 310, 580X HW2, or BR-class mobile routers.
- Datacentre and colo deployment. Where redundant power and rack-unit form factor matter for compliance and operational standards.
What you get
