iEP-6020E-003 Overview
Remote cabinets and outstations often have power but no wired network, and sending raw video over cellular is costly. The ASRock Industrial iEP-6020E-003 is the 5G build of the iEP-6020E series, a fanless Jetson Orin NX 16GB DIN-rail AI computer that runs inference on site and sends results over a 5G or 4G LTE module.
The Jetson Orin NX 16GB module pairs 16 GB of 128-bit LPDDR5 with up to 157 sparse (78 dense) INT8 TOPS with Super Mode, so the iEP-6020E-003 can typically run detection models locally so only events and metadata need to cross the cellular link. It runs NVIDIA JetPack 6.2 on Ubuntu 22.04, with a TPM 2.0 on board. Storage is an M.2 2280 M-Key socket for a wide-temperature PCIe Gen4 or Gen3 NVMe SSD and a microSD slot.
The M.2 B-Key socket takes a 5G or 4G LTE module on PCIe or USB, with a Nano SIM slot and up to four cellular antennas plus two Wi-Fi antennas. Wired networking is two Gigabit Ethernet ports, one from the module and one on an Intel I210AT. Two USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports (one locking) and two USB 2.0 ports take cameras and peripherals, and HDMI 2.0 drives a local display. One RS-232 and one RS-232/422/485 port connect serial devices, and two DB15 connectors carry four digital inputs, four digital outputs, CAN bus, I2C, SPI and remote power signals. An M.2 E-Key socket takes an optional Wi-Fi and Bluetooth module.
Power is 12 to 36 V DC on a Phoenix-type connector with 80 V surge, over-voltage, under-voltage, over-current and reverse protection. The fanless iEP-6020E-003 is rated from -25 °C to 50 °C with 0.5 to 0.8 m/s airflow and is tested to IEC 60068-2-27 shock and IEC 60068-2-64 vibration. Mounting is vertical wall or DIN rail. We supply it configured and tested, with the 5G or 4G LTE module, the antennas, the NVMe SSD and the JetPack image fitted. The iEP-6020E-000 is the Basic build without cellular, the iEP-6022E-003 is the Orin Nano 8GB version of this build, and the earlier iEP-6010E-000 family launched on JetPack 5.
