Description

Overview

The BOXER-6842M features the 8th and 9th Generation Intel® Core™ i9/i7/i5/i3 and Xeon® E processors (formerly Coffee Lake/Coffee Lake Refresh), offering top end computing performance. Paired with up to 128 GB of SODIMM memory, the system is designed to deliver the best performance possible to handle processing intensive machine vision and AI Edge server applications.

The BOXER-6842M offers greater expansion and storage options to better enable edge operation and quick analysis. The system can support up to four 2.5” drives (HDDS or SSDss) and features an M.2 2280 PCIe [x4] slot with support for NVMe, allowing faster read/write speeds and more efficient operating system performance.

The BOXER-6842M is available with three PCI Express configurations. The A2 model features one PCIe [x16] and one PCIe [x4] slot; supporting GPU cards up to 250W TDP with a single power supply. The A3 model features two PCIe [x8] (in [x16] form factor) and one PCIe [x4] slots, perfect for frame grabber cards and AI accelerators. The A4 model features the same configuration as the A3, but with wider spacing and dual power inputs to support two GPUs with up to a combined 500W TDP.

The BOXER-6842M is built with several key features to operate in industrial environments. The system features rugged design with wide voltage input (12~24V) and an extensive I/O loadout including six USB3.2 Gen 1 ports, four COM ports, three RJ45 Gigabit LAN ports, and dual HDMI ports; all located on the front of the system to make it easy to manage connections.
