The new industrial computer in Box PC format KBox A-151-TGL is based on the 11th generation Intel® Core™ or Celeron® processors and offers sufficient computing performance even for demanding IoT edge or AI applications. As a special feature, the system has an expansion slot on the front (I/O Door), which can be used to expand the KBox A-151-TGL with additional functionalities such as fieldbuses, interfaces such as graphics, serial or digital I/Os, and Ethernet interfaces. Optionally, the system can also be expanded to include 4G/5G or even WiFi 6 connectivity.
To meet the increased cyber security requirements, Kontron offers the hardened and secure Linux®-based KontronOS operating system and the KontronGrid fleet management solution for managing and simplifying the roll-out of container applications on edge devices.
The KBox A-151-TGL is specifically designed for demanding IoT gateway applications in industrial environments. Based on the 11th generation Intel® Core™ i3-1115G4E, i5-1145GRE/i5-1145G7 or also i7-1185GRE/i7-1185G7E or the Intel® Celeron® processor 6305E with up to four processing cores and 4.4 GHz (burst) each as well as a memory expansion of max. 64 GB, the new Box PC supports OEM manufacturers and system integrators in exploiting the full potential of their IoT infrastructures. Another highlight of this generation's Core™ i7 and Core™ i5 processors is the high-end Intel® Iris Xe graphics with 96 execution units, which users can leverage for demanding AI or IoT edge applications.
In addition to two display ports and two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, including a 2.5GbE interface with TSN functionality
