Forecr DSBOARD-ORNX-LAN-AB8 NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 8GB Dual LAN Carrier Board with Three USB-C and CAN Bus

Gateways that run inference on a few camera feeds and pass results upstream often fit the Orin NX 8GB. The DSBOARD-ORNX-LAN-AB8 fits the NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 8GB module to the Forecr DSBOARD-ORNX-LAN dual LAN carrier board.

The Orin NX 8GB delivers 70 TOPS from an Ampere GPU and a 6-core Arm Cortex-A78AE CPU, with 8 GB of LPDDR5; on board Rev 2.0, Super Mode raises that to 117 TOPS. The DSBOARD-ORNX-LAN-AB16 steps up to the 16GB module, and the DSBOARD-ORNX-LAN-AC8 fits the Orin Nano 8GB. Cameras connect to four FPC connectors, two 22-pin 0.5 mm for 4-lane and two 15-pin 1.0 mm for 2-lane cameras, set by switch to 2x 4-lane or 4x 2-lane MIPI CSI-2. GMSL2 is not on the carrier; Forecr sells an eight-channel GMSL2 add-on board for Orin NX systems.

On the DSBOARD-ORNX-LAN-AB8, two Gigabit Ethernet ports, the second on its own PCIe controller, separate camera or field networks from the uplink. Three USB 3.1 Type-C ports, one of which doubles as the recovery port, and HDMI 2.0 handle peripherals and display. A terminal carries the CAN bus, a software-configurable RS232/422/485 port, two digital inputs and two digital outputs. Storage uses M.2 Key-M 2280 (PCIe x4) and 2230 (PCIe x1) NVMe slots, and an M.2 Key-E 2230 socket takes Wi-Fi and Bluetooth; this board has no Key-B or SIM.

The DSBOARD-ORNX-LAN-AB8 takes 9-28 V DC and is rated from -25 to +85 °C, with a 5 V fan header; Forecr lists JetPack 5.x and 6.x. Forecr’s change notice moves the DSBOARD-ORNX-LAN to board Rev 2.0 from 1 October 2026, with a 9-32 V DC input, a -40 to +85 °C rating, CAN FD and Orin NX Super Mode support.
