AAEON, a global leader in embedded computing, has introduced the GENESYSM-ADN6, a slimline SubCompact System powered by Intel Core Processor N-series CPUs. Measuring just 178 mm x 134.1 mm x 43 mm, the GENESYSM-ADN6 is a compact option built to satisfy demand for mini PCs suitable for smart retail, industrial automation, and edge gateway applications. The PC’s connectivity and scalability clearly align it with the latter of these vertical markets, with a standout feature being its three LAN ports, configured for Intel Ethernet Controller I226 running at 2.5GbE speed. Alongside this is extensive expansion options for Wi-Fi, 5G, and additional storage through the system’s M.2 2230 E-Key, M.2 3052 B-Key, and mSATA slots respectively.
In addition to its compact size, the GENESYSM-ADN6 is well-suited to deployment in industrial settings, with a wide power input range of 9 V to 36 V and fanless operation. Moreover, the system boasts two COM ports for RS-232/422/485, with the option of two additional ports for RS-232. Elsewhere, two USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, an 8-bit GPIO, and SMBus/I2C are available for integrating sensors, actuators, and other peripheral devices, making it an excellent option when it comes to PLCs, robotic arms, and SCADA systems. The system’s interfaces are bolstered by high-bandwidth, SODIMM-based DDR5 system memory for expedited data processing and optional TPM 2.0 for added data security.
