DFI EC700-AL-E3930-4LAN Dual-Core Intel Atom x5-E3930 Low-Profile Embedded PC with 9-36V DC and 4x GbE

Small network gateways often need to bridge several segments while drawing as little power as possible. The EC700-AL-E3930-4LAN is the four-LAN dual-core build of the DFI EC700-AL series: a low-profile fanless embedded PC with an Intel Atom x5-E3930, four GbE ports, four COM ports and a 9 to 36 V DC input.

The Atom x5-E3930 runs two Apollo Lake cores, which suits protocol gateways, simple routing and data forwarding. Memory fits one 204-pin DDR3L SO-DIMM, up to 8 GB in total. Intel HD Graphics drives two displays, and the EC700-AL-E3930-4LAN runs Windows 10 IoT or Linux, as DFI states for Apollo Lake.

Networking is four Intel I210 GbE ports on RJ45, with two USB 3.0 Type-A ports, four RS-232/422/485 ports on DB9 and one DisplayPort output at up to 4096×2160 at 60 Hz and one VGA at up to 1920×1200. Storage is a 2.5-inch SATA bay and a full-size mSATA slot. A full-size Mini PCIe slot with nano-SIM takes an optional 4G module, and an M.2 2230 E key slot takes optional Wi-Fi, with antenna holes on the front panel.

Power is 9 to 36 V DC on a DC jack. DFI rates the EC700-AL-E3930-4LAN from -40 °C to 70 °C and lists CE, FCC Class A, RoHS, CCC, UL and KC compliance, and it mounts on a wall, a VESA plate or a DIN rail with optional kits. We supply it configured and tested, with memory, storage, the OS image and any 4G or Wi-Fi modules fitted before it ships. The EC700-AL-E3930-2LAN trades two GbE ports for two more USB ports, and the EC700-AL-N4200-4LAN offers four cores with the same four GbE ports.
