Axiomtek eBOX671A fanless embedded system

Axiomtek has announced the eBOX671A, a fanless embedded system powered by the high-performance Intel Xeon, 10th generation Intel Core i9/i7/i5/i3 or Celeron processor (code name: Comet Lake-S) with the Intel W480E chipset.

With its IP40-rated heavy-duty aluminium extrusion and steel case, the durable device can run in harsh environments with a wide operating temperature range of -40 to +70°C and vibration endurance for up to 3G. The 9 to 48 VDC power input meanwhile allows it to be used for factory automation. To enhance AI inference capabilities, the product presents high performance for a wide range of applications in the AIoT fields such as edge computing, machine vision, deep learning and robotic control.

The versatile device is designed with high computing power, easy integration and rich I/O connectivity to meet the requirements of various applications at the edge. Four GbE LAN ports with optional PoE support allow the embedded computer to connect IP cameras or any PoE-powered device. It also has sufficient USB interfaces for industrial cameras. To capture the 5G-IoT business potential, it is equipped with one M.2 Key B 3050 slot for a 5G module. On the front, the customisable device has one easy-to-access SIM slot and one flexible I/O window which support diverse I/O choices through Axiomtek’s PCI Express Mini modules.

The product comes with dual 260-pin DDR4 ECC/non-ECC SO-DIMM slots for up to 64 GB of system memory. The ECC memory option is available with the Intel Xeon processor protecting the system from a potential crash by correcting any errors in the data. Two 2.5” SATA HDD drive bays with Intel RAID 0&1 are for extensive storage needs. It also has two full-size PCI Express Mini Card slots, two SIM slots for wireless communication and TPM 2.0 onboard. The powerful embedded system supports Windows 10 IoT and Linux operating systems.
