Giada N601-125U Intel Core Ultra 5 125U NPU Embedded PC with Quad 4K Display and 2.5GbE

The N601-125U is the 15 W Core Ultra 5 125U build of the Giada N601, a Meteor Lake NPU embedded PC with 12 cores, Thunderbolt 4, quad 4K output and 2.5GbE. It suits signage, kiosk and meeting-room PCs where a lower base power is preferred over the 28 W H-series builds.

  • Core Ultra 5 125U at 15 W: Twelve cores and fourteen threads at 15 W base power, the lowest base power in the N601 series.
  • Intel AI Boost NPU: An integrated Intel AI Boost NPU runs local AI models alongside the CPU and Intel Graphics for vision and assistant workloads.
  • Quad 4K or Dual 8K Output: HDMI, DisplayPort 1.4 and Thunderbolt 4 support four 4K screens or two 8K screens from one embedded PC.
  • Dual M.2 NVMe Sockets: Two M.2 2280 M-Key sockets, PCIe 4.0 x4 and PCIe 4.0 x1, with up to 96 GB of DDR5-5600 memory.
  • 2.5GbE and Optional Wi-Fi: One 2.5GbE port on an Intel i226-V, plus an M.2 E-Key slot for an optional Wi-Fi card up to Wi-Fi 6E.

N601-125U Overview

Digital signage, meeting-room systems and self-service kiosks often run all day in spaces where a quieter, lower-power PC is easier to live with. The Giada N601-125U is the build of the N601 series for those installs, an NPU embedded PC based on the Intel Core Ultra 5 125U from the Core Ultra (Meteor Lake) family.

The Core Ultra 5 125U has 12 cores and 14 threads at 15 W base power, with Intel Graphics and an Intel AI Boost NPU for local AI work such as people counting or speech features. Memory is up to 96 GB of DDR5-5600 across two SO-DIMM sockets. If the application needs more graphics headroom, the N601-125H and N601-155H use 28 W H-series processors with Intel Arc graphics.

Storage sits on two M.2 2280 M-Key sockets, one PCIe 4.0 x4 and one PCIe 4.0 x1, so a system drive and a media or data drive can be fitted. Displays connect through HDMI at 4096 x 2304, DisplayPort 1.4 at up to 7680 x 4320 and Thunderbolt 4, for four 4K screens or two 8K screens. USB covers one Type-C 3.2 Gen2, one USB 3.2 Gen2 and two USB 3.2 Gen1 ports. Networking is one 2.5GbE port on an Intel i226-V, with an M.2 E-Key slot for an optional Wi-Fi card up to Wi-Fi 6E and an optional TPM.

The N601-125U is cooled by a smart fan, runs from the supplied 19 V DC adapter and is rated from 0 °C to 45 °C at up to 95% humidity, non-condensing. It carries CE, FCC Class B and UKCA marks. Things Embedded supplies the N601-125U with memory, storage and a Windows 11 or Linux image installed and tested before it ships.
