DSBOARD-AGXMAX-AA Overview
Builds that will use the AGX Orin Industrial module, or that buy modules on a separate schedule, need the carrier on its own. The DSBOARD-AGXMAX-AA is the board-only option in the Forecr DSBOARD-AGXMAX series, the 10GbE carrier board for the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin supplied without a module.
Forecr lists three modules for it: the AGX Orin 32GB at 200 TOPS, the AGX Orin 64GB at 275 TOPS and the AGX Orin Industrial at 248 TOPS. Fitted versions are the DSBOARD-AGXMAX-AB with the 32GB module and the DSBOARD-AGXMAX-AC with the 64GB, so the DSBOARD-AGXMAX-AA is the route to the Industrial module. Cameras connect through one 120-pin Samtec camera connector that supports six CSI cameras via an adapter board. GMSL2 is not on the carrier: Forecr’s eight-channel GMSL2 add-on board, on locking MMCX connectors with power over coax, brings GMSL2 cameras to AGX systems.
Networking is the reason to choose the DSBOARD-AGXMAX-AA: a 10G SFP+ cage for supported transceivers sits next to two Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports. Storage runs to 64 GB of eMMC and two M.2 Key-M 2280 NVMe slots at PCIe x4 each, with M.2 Key-E for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and M.2 Key-B with nano-SIM for LTE or 5G. An 8-pin terminal carries CAN and RS232/422/485, two digital inputs and three outputs sit on a 6-pin header, and HDMI 2.0 and two USB 3.1 Type-A ports complete the I/O.
Power comes in at 12-30 V DC, the 140 x 125 mm board is rated from -25 to +85 °C, and a slide switch sets the fan header to 5 V or 11 V. Forecr lists JetPack 5.x and 6.x. The DSBOARD-AGXMAX-AA suits networked vision and robotics projects that want the module choice kept open.
