Diamond Systems JB-JAX-ONA8 NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano 8GB Fanless DIN Rail PC with 1TB NVMe SSD, RS-232/485 and Wide Temperature

The JB-JAX-ONA8 is the Orin Nano 8GB model in the Diamond Systems JETBOX-JACKSON series, a fanless DIN rail PC with one GbE port, two serial ports, 16 GPIO and a 1TB NVMe SSD with Linux. It suits lighter industrial vision and monitoring tasks that need no CAN or second network port.

  • Jetson Orin Nano 8GB: NVIDIA rates the Orin Nano 8GB at up to 40 TOPS, and Diamond’s manual quotes 67 TOPS with Super Mode enabled.
  • One GbE Port, No CAN: The Orin Nano model has one Gigabit Ethernet port and no CAN port, for single-network installations.
  • RS-232 and RS-232/485: One RS-232 port on DB9 and one jumper-configurable RS-232/485 port for meters, controllers and legacy serial equipment.
  • 1TB NVMe SSD With Linux: Ordered as JB-JAX-ONA8-1T-01, with Diamond’s JetPack-based Linux OS installed on a 1TB NVMe SSD.
  • Fanless DIN Rail Mounting: A steel and aluminium enclosure runs without a fan from -25 to +80 °C and mounts on a DIN rail or shelf.

JB-JAX-ONA8 Overview

Monitoring and light vision tasks on a production line rarely need a large module, but they still benefit from a fanless box that fits the cabinet DIN rail. The JB-JAX-ONA8 is the Orin Nano 8GB model in the Diamond Systems JETBOX-JACKSON series, a fanless DIN rail PC built on Diamond’s Jackson carrier board in a steel and aluminium enclosure.

NVIDIA rates the Jetson Orin Nano 8GB module at up to 40 TOPS, and Diamond’s Linux OS based on NVIDIA JetPack supports Super Mode, quoted at 67 TOPS in the manual. That suits presence detection, counting and simple inspection on one or two cameras. The JB-JAX-ONA8 ships as Diamond’s JB-JAX-ONA8-1T-01 with a 1TB NVMe SSD holding the operating system, and 2TB is available by special order.

With the Orin Nano module the front panel carries one Gigabit Ethernet port on RJ-45, and there is no CAN port. It keeps two USB 3.2 ports with USB 2.0 fallback, one HDMI output, one RS-232 port on DB9, one RS-232/485 port set by jumper and 16 GPIO on a DB25 connector with 3.3 or 5 V levels. Internally there is a PCIe/USB minicard socket with a nano SIM socket and an M.2 E-key 2230 socket, and Diamond can fit Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or modem modules at the factory. Front-panel reset and recovery buttons are recessed.

Power is 8-20 V DC through a pluggable screw terminal block, with a 5 V DC input as an option on the Orin Nano model. The JB-JAX-ONA8 runs fanless from -25 to +80 °C, mounts on a DIN rail or shelf and is RoHS compliant. The JB-JAX-ONX8 and JB-JAX-ONX16 add a second Gigabit port and CAN with the Orin NX. We supply the JB-JAX-ONA8 configured, with the JetPack image loaded and the unit tested before it ships.
