Modular Edge AI Computer IPC962A

Axiomtek IPC962A and IPC964A continue the 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 diverse 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). Axiomtek IPC962A and IPC964A support up to 200W 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 a wide operating temperature range of -20°C to +60°C and a wide range of power input from 18 to 36 VDC for operation in mission-critical environments.

Axiomtek IPC962A and IPC964A are designed to deliver efficiency, productivity, and ruggedness across industries. They are equipped with dual DDR5 4800/4000 SO-DIMM for up to 64GB of system memory. By supporting two 2.5" HDD/SSD with Intel® RST supported and one optional M.2 Key M 2280 socket (PCIe x4 Gen4), these high-performance industrial computers deliver sufficient storage for massive data processing. It also supports Intel® VMD for enterprise-grade management of NVMe SSD. They also offer one full-size PCI Express Mini Card slot with SIM slot and one M.2 Key E 2230 socket for Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/LTE modules. One M.2 Key B 3042/3050/3052/3060 socket with SIM slot is also available for 5G module (Intel® Q670E) while there are more and more 5G needs to reach the market,” said Ivy Lee, the product manager of AIoT Product PM Division at Axiomtek. “Moreover, we also strengthen the security measures for these expandable industrial systems. They support intelligent power management to control the ACC ignition, remote power, and remote LED. They also support TPM 2.0 for security through major data encryption priorities.

The intelligent edge computing systems support rich 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 3.5mm 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.
