Capabilities

The IoT edge computer, Edge 2 Kit comes with a quad-core processor, Wi-Fi connectivity, storage, M.2 socket, mini-PCIe socket, display support, and two 16mm 6dbi 2.4G/5.8G antennas providing the users with a barrier-free network anytime, anywhere.

Software-wise, the hardware device has a preinstalled Android system with embedded Linux that delivers a memorable and beyond-expectation experience for developers. The ARM SBC-based Edge 2 Kit provides gigabit Ethernet ports and supports Wi-Fi 6 for a faster IoT network and wider accessibility. Thanks to the onboard Edge 2 single-board computer, this system integrates a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth module via AP6275S. The support for Wi-Fi 6 and dual-mode Bluetooth 5.0 enables the interaction with different vendors’ access points with MIMO standards and can accomplish up to a speed of 1200Mbps with the dual-stream. Wi-Fi wakes and enables signals connected to GPIO0 on the board, which can be operating while the device is asleep.

Embedded & Customization

Mixtile Edge 2 Kit provides flexibility for the embedded developers with customization needs and hardware capabilities through its reserved CAN, I2C, and UART internal interfaces.

The onboard system-on-module provides a multi-purpose operating clock frequency of up to 2.0GHz, a neural processing unit with performance up to 0.8 TOPS, a 1080P100 H.264/H.265 video encoder, and 4KP60 H.265/H.264/VP9 video decoder. It enables industry-standard interface RS-485 to meet the compatibility needs of other peripheral expansion and facilitate the connection of various industrial equipment, embedded systems, and edge AI applications. Mixtile’s ARM SBC-based Edge 2 Kit supports various power supply methods such as Type-C PD2.0 power input and SATA power input which can work well with the extended battery pack or centralized power supply.

Under high load/high-frequency situations, Edge 2 kit devices run quietly with no fan inside, this fanless hardware design allows the device to be less disturbed by mechanical parts or dust, enhancing reliability and durability.
