AIB-MX11-1-A2
The AIB-MX11-1-A2 is a compact edge AI single-board computer (SBC) built on the NVIDIA® Jetson AGX Orin™ 32GB module, delivering 200 TOPS of AI inference performance from a 1,792-core NVIDIA Ampere GPU with 56 Tensor Cores and 32 GB of LPDDR5 memory at 204.8 GB/s. Measuring 176 × 132 × 57.32 mm and weighing under 1 kg, the AIB-MX11-1-A2 combines a wide operating temperature range of −25 °C to +80 °C with IEC 60068-2-64 vibration and IEC 60068-2-27 shock qualification — making it suitable for direct integration into machine housings, mobile platforms and outdoor edge deployments where standard box PCs cannot be installed.
Designed to serve as both a standalone edge AI node and an embedded compute carrier, the AIB-MX11-1-A2 offers a connectivity profile that goes well beyond a typical SBC: a 10 GbE port alongside 1 GbE and two IEEE 802.3af PoE PSE ports power and connect IP cameras directly from the board; a 120-pin 16-lane MIPI expansion connector handles high-resolution embedded camera arrays; isolated CAN FD interfaces cover vehicle and industrial bus communication; and M.2 sockets for 5G, Wi-Fi and PCIe Gen4 NVMe complete the platform for wireless, cellular and high-speed storage expansion.

Application Use Cases
Embedded Machine Vision and Multi-Camera AI Systems
The 120-pin 16-lane MIPI connector is the defining integration feature for machine vision designers. Camera modules, MIPI serialiser daughter boards and stereo vision assemblies connect directly to the AIB-MX11-1-A2 without a frame grabber, eliminating a PCIe slot requirement and a potential single point of failure in compact vision systems. The 200 TOPS Ampere GPU runs multiple concurrent object detection, classification and segmentation models against these camera streams, and the 2× PoE PSE ports power GbE IP cameras for supplementary wide-area coverage alongside the embedded MIPI channels.
Autonomous Mobile Robots and Unmanned Vehicles
The combination of isolated CAN FD, 5× GPIO, I²C, SPI, a 1PPS timing module and DC 9–36 V wide-range input covers the sensor bus, actuator control and power architecture requirements of wheeled robots, AGVs and UAV compute payloads. The −25 °C to +80 °C operating range and IEC shock/vibration qualification address mobile platform environmental demands. At 10.5 W idle and 0.98 kg, the AIB-MX11-1-A2 imposes minimal weight and power penalties on battery-operated autonomous systems running full NVIDIA JetPack perception and navigation stacks.
Intelligent Traffic Systems and Roadside AI
Traffic enforcement, junction monitoring and licence plate recognition deployments benefit from the GMSL power connector for coaxial-cabled automotive cameras, the 10 GbE uplink for high-throughput video and inference result forwarding to traffic management centres, and the wide operating temperature range for year-round roadside enclosure operation. The 1PPS timing function synchronises inference timestamps across distributed nodes for accurate multi-site event correlation, and the optional OOB management module enables remote health monitoring without a maintenance visit to each roadside cabinet.
Industrial Automation and Smart Factory Integration
Direct integration into PLC and motion controller networks uses the isolated CAN FD and RS-422/485 interfaces, while the 5 GPIO pins and auxiliary power outputs connect embedded sensors, indicator lights and relay modules without external power supplies. The M.2 PCIe Gen4 x4 NVMe slot stores AI model libraries and production data locally, and the M.2 5G slot connects the unit to private industrial cellular networks for remote monitoring without Ethernet cable runs on large production floors.
Smart City Infrastructure and Outdoor Edge AI Nodes
Installed in roadside enclosures, lamp-post controllers and utility monitoring stations, the AIB-MX11-1-A2's −25 °C to +80 °C range covers outdoor operation across the full European climate envelope without active heating or supplementary cooling. Two PoE PSE ports power attached IP cameras or environmental sensors directly, and the M.2 B-Key 5G slot provides backhaul connectivity independent of fixed-line infrastructure. CE, FCC and UKCA certifications cover EU, UK and North American regulatory requirements for publicly installed equipment.
Why Choose the AIB-MX11-1-A2
An SBC That Replaces Three Separate Components
A typical embedded AI vision node requires a compute board, a PoE switch for IP cameras and a separate cellular router for connectivity. The AIB-MX11-1-A2 integrates all three on a single 176 × 132 mm board: 200 TOPS compute, PoE PSE power for cameras and a 5G-capable M.2 B-Key slot for cellular uplink. For system integrators, this reduces BOM component count, PCB area, power budget and inter-board cable management — compressing the entire node into a form factor that fits inside camera enclosures, roadside cabinets and AGV compute bays that cannot accommodate multiple separate boards.
−25 °C to +80 °C — One of the Widest Ranges in Its Class
Most Jetson AGX Orin SBCs are rated to +60 °C or +70 °C operating maximum. The AIB-MX11-1-A2's +80 °C upper limit, combined with a −25 °C lower limit, makes it usable in high-ambient industrial enclosures — steel mill control areas, engine compartments, outdoor summer deployments in Southern Europe and the Middle East — that would require auxiliary cooling hardware with narrower-rated alternatives. For engineers qualifying a platform for extreme-environment projects, the additional thermal headroom eliminates a design risk from the outset.
1PPS, GMSL and Isolated CAN FD on an Off-the-Shelf SBC
Precision time synchronisation (1PPS), GMSL automotive camera power, isolated CAN FD and a 16-lane MIPI connector are specifications that individually appear on specialised embedded carrier boards. Finding all four on a single certified, production-ready SBC removes months of custom carrier board development from programmes in automotive, V2X infrastructure and robotic perception — allowing engineering teams to start system integration immediately on a qualified platform rather than after completing a carrier board design cycle.
