Axiomtek IPC962A and IPC964A industrial edge computers

Axiomtek has launched the IPC962A and IPC964A series of modular industrial edge systems featuring flexible expansion capabilities. The expandable edge computers are powered by the 12th Gen Intel Core processor (codename: Alder Lake–S) with Intel H610E/Q670E chipset. The intelligent edge computing systems support power levels of up to 200 W for add-in cards, such as NVIDIA graphics cards, enhancing performance acceleration. They also enable 5G connectivity for next-gen communication. Certified by EN 61000-6-2 regulation, the edge computers offer durable design and immunity for heavy-loading industrial environments. These adaptable industrial computers can are designed to respond to changes or new circumstances for diverse applications in AI, vision inspection, objective classification and factory automation.

The edge computers feature an IPC960 series design with flexible expansion options. They have one optional I/O expansion module slot and I/O module options include Axiomtek’s AX93511, AX93512, AX93516, AX93519 and MIO160. They are equipped with 2/4 PCIe/PCI slots for integrating add-on cards, such as I/O cards, motion cards, vision cards and GPU cards to support machine control and vision applications or automated optical inspection (AOI). The edge computers support up to 200 W power for add-on card with the Axiomtek EIO141 module (1 PCIe x16 Gen4 + 1 PCIe x8/x4 Gen3 + 2 PCIe x4 Gen4) and EIO142 module (1 PCIe x16 Gen4 + 1 PCIe x4 Gen4 + 2 PCI). These IPC computers have an operating temperature range of -20 to +60°C and a range of power inputs from 18 to 36 VDC for operation in mission-critical environments.

The intelligent edge computing systems support a range of I/O options, including one 2.5GbE LAN port (Intel I226V), one GbE LAN port with Intel AMT, one RS-232/422/485, six USB 3.2 Gen2x1 (10G) ports, one internal USB 2.0 port, one DisplayPort++, one HDMI with 4096 x 2304 resolution, one DVI-D with 1920 x 1200 resolution, one 3.5 mm jack for Mic-in and Line-out, one switch for power on/off with LED (default ATX), 4-pin terminal block for DC input and 4-pin terminal block for ignition control.
