With four PoE ports for connecting IP cameras, the BOXER-8640AI is designed for vision AI applications such as smart factories and public safety, and has additional I/O to enable integration with a wide range of peripherals and sensors.

While primarily designed for use cases like video analytics and machine vision, the BOXER-8640AI also has an extensive selection of I/O to support device control and monitoring tasks. The versatile new box PC features 4x Gigabit PoE ports and 2x Superspeed+ 10Gbps USB-C ports for high-bandwidth peripheral connectivity, while supporting legacy devices with a configurable RS-232/422/485 serial port via a standard DB9 port. Furthermore, an additional DB9 CANbus port and externally accessible GPIO expansion options are available to be prepared for mobile and robotics applications.

The GPU is based on the current Ampere architecture found in the NVIDIA® RTX 3000 series of consumer GPUs. Compared to the Volta architecture, it offers a significant performance increase per watt. The Ampere GPU features 1792 CUDA cores and 56 Tensor cores, resulting in 200 TOPS of AI computing power. The SoM also features an improved octa-core ARM Cortex A78AE CPU and 32 GB of integrated 256-bit LPDDR5 memory, which has a bandwidth 68 GB/s higher than the LPDDR4 memory of the Jetson AGX Xavier.

The Jetson Orin module comes standard with 32GB of eMMC memory. For more storage, the BOXER-8640AI is equipped with a MicroSD card slot, an M.2 2280 M-key interface and a 2.5" SATA SSD/HDD bay. By this the SoM is a well-suited option for areas with poor connectivity or data needs.

The BOXER-8640AI supports the NVIDIA® JetPack 5.0 SDK. NVIDIA® JetPack SDK is the most comprehensive solution for end-to-end accelerated AI application development. It provides a complete development environment for hardware-accelerated AI-at-the-edge development. This version of NVIDIA®’s JetPack SDK includes the latest Jetson Linux Driver Package, Linux operating system, CUDA-X accelerated libraries, and APIs for deep learning, computer vision, accelerated computing, and multimedia development. In addition, the JetPack SDK also includes sample code, documentation and developer tools for the host computer and the developer kit, and supports higher-level SDKs such as DeepStream for streaming video analytics, Isaac for robotics and Riva for conversational AI.
