The Up Xtreme 7100 is a recent offering from AAEON that includes both single-board computers (SBCs) and small form-factor PC systems, packaged with the potential to handle robust applications such as robotics. The series boasts a resilience to vibrations, making them suitable for demanding environments.
Designed with commercial interests in mind, the Up Xtreme 7100 series diverges from consumer-focused media PC bases, aligning more with industrial, robotics, and AI computing needs. The series offers various configurations, allowing users to select from different processor options, including the Intel N97 and the more powerful Intel Core i3-N305.
Supporting up to 16 GB of LPDDR5 RAM, the Up Xtreme 7100 models are tailored to cope with demanding workloads. Depending on the chosen variant, integrated eMMCS storage goes up to 64 GB. Networking capabilities on the board feature dual Ethernet ports with up to 2.5 GBit/s each, catering to high-speed wired connections. A module for WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity can be added via an M.2 2230 slot. For additional storage or functionalities, it supports high-performance SSDs via two PCIe 3.0 lanes, along with the possibility of enhancing AI capabilities with a specialized card.
The connectivity array includes two USB 3.2 and two USB 2.0 ports, six GPIO pins, and various ports for display (USB Type C or DisplayPort 1.4), and industry-standard RS-232, RS422, and RS485 connections. Furthermore, the SBC is equipped with an M.2 3052 slot and a nano SIM slot for expanded utility.
Despite its dense array of ports and capabilities, the Up Xtreme 7100 series presents a compact footprint, measuring a mere 152 x 124 x 40 millimeters. It further facilitates integration into different setups with a VESA mount compatibility. The Edge Mini PC version, powered by the Intel N97 processor, is priced at $489 in the AAEON store, representing the entry point into the series.
For those seeking alternatives in the fanless PC domain, HISTTON offers a selection available on Amazon, suggesting that the Up Xtreme 7100 may face competition in the burgeoning SBC and mini PC market.
The industrial versatility and robust construction of the Up Xtreme 7100 series reflect an ongoing trend towards compact, yet powerful systems capable of driving innovation in various sectors. Its release represents AAEON’s commitment to providing cutting-edge technology solutions that cater to specific commercial and industrial needs.
