Compact and intelligent edge computers

With the 'ARK-1125' series, Advantech is launching a range of palm-sized fanless box PCs with Intel's N200 and X7211E processors.

The robust devices from Advantech are designed for operation in a temperature range from -30 to +60 °C. Despite their small size (133 mm x 46.4 mm x 94.2 mm), the box PCs offer numerous connection options for connecting various devices and peripherals. The series also supports the integration of M.2 AI accelerator cards, 5G/LTE, WLAN modules and NVMe SSDs to enable real-time intelligence. In addition, the integrated TPM 2.0 and Advantech's 'DeviceOn' software provide another layer of security and remote management capabilities.

The series is available in two configurations with different I/O to suit different application scenarios: 'ARK-1125H' features an Intel N200 (Alder Lake N) processor and supports 16 Gbytes of DDR5-4800 memory. Numerous external I/O options are available for connecting peripheral devices, including 2 x GbE (up to 2500 Mbit/s), 2 x RS232/422/485, 2 x USB 3.2, 2 x USB 2.0 and 2 x HDMI. The 'ARK-1125C' model has an Intel x7211E (Alder Lake N) processor and supports 16 Gbytes of DDR5-4800 memory. Its external I/O options enable various connections, including 4 x RS232/422/4851, 1 x GbE (up to 2500 Mbit/s), 2 x USB 3.2, 2 x USB 2.0 and 1 x HDMI. Internal interfaces include M.2 2230 E-Key, 2242 M-Key and 2280 B-Key slots that support NVMe SSDs, wireless modules and AI accelerator cards such as HAILO 8 with M.2 form factor, enabling AI applications in smart factories.
