Called Boxer-6801-RAP, it “was designed with the aim of helping its customers modernise industrial set-ups, pairing advanced features such as multiple PoE LAN and NVMe storage support with both a PCIe and PCI slot for frame grabber, motion control and fieldbus card installation”, according to the company.
There is a choice of three processors: i3-1320PE, i5-1340PE or i7-1370PE.
The units have five 2.5Gbit/s Ethernet ports, two DB-9 ports for RS-232/422/485, one DB-15 port for 8bit digital I/O, two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports and two USB 2.0 Type-A ports.
NVMe is supported by an internal M.2 2280 M-Key slot and there is also a 2.5in SATA drive bay, then there are slots for M.2 2230 E-Key, M.2 2280 M-Key, M.2 3052 B-Key, and a SIM card.
