Neousys Nuvo-1300af embedded controller

The Neousys Nuvo-1300af is claimed to be the world’s first i7 fanless embedded controller with integrated Gigabit PoE ports. Incorporating high-end Intel Core i7 processor, the Nuvo-1300af controller offers good performance for arithmetic-intensive applications, while its fanless design helps provide reliability and durability.

PoE supplies electrical power along with data on a standard CAT-5 ethernet cable. Nuvo-1300af integrates four Gigabit PoE ports, compliant with the IEEE 802.3af standard.

Each PoE port can deliver 15.4 W of power to a PoE device, such as a PoE camera. Nuvo-1300af also features the unique design of isolated PoE power, which allows users to alternatively supply the unit from two independent power supplies - one for the PoE functionality and the other for the computer. This minimises the risk of an external power surge on an ethernet cable that may damage the system.

In addition, Nuvo-1300af integrates versatile I/O interfaces in its compact chassis. It has one additional GbE port for data communication and two internal SATA ports for accommodating two 2.5″ SATA hard drives. Nuvo-1300af also features onboard isolated DIO and serial ports for device control/communication.

Features include: Intel i7 computing performance, integrated four Gigabit PoE ports and one GbE port with Intel 82574L controller, rugged, -25 to 70°C fanless operation, isolated PoE power design, 8-ch isolated DI and 8-ch isolated DO, one RS232/422/485 port and three RS232 ports and dual SATA ports to accommodate two 2.5″ SATA hard drives.

The PoE capability of Nuvo-1300af reduces the cost of deployment of ethernet-based devices since a power outlet is no longer needed.
