DFI X6a-AGX NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin 32GB/64GB Fanless Edge AI Computer with 10GbE and 12-54 V DC

When a project grows from one camera and one model to many, the extra compute usually brings a fan, and a fan is the part that fails first in dust and heat. The DFI X6a-AGX keeps a fanless design while moving to NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin, which DFI rates at up to 275 TOPS. It is the Jetson AGX Orin edge AI computer in DFI’s range.

The X6a-AGX takes the Jetson AGX Orin 32GB, 64GB or Industrial module. The 64GB module brings a 12-core Arm Cortex-A78AE CPU and a 2048-core NVIDIA Ampere GPU with 64 Tensor Cores, and the 32GB module an 8-core CPU and a 1792-core GPU with 56 Tensor Cores, each with 256-bit LPDDR5. That leaves room for several models, larger vision transformers or many camera streams at once. Storage is an M.2 2242/2280 NVMe slot plus a microSD slot, and the system ships with JetPack 6.2.

Networking is one 10G RJ45 port and one GbE RJ45 port. Two USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports, HDMI, two USB 2.0 ports, a USB Type-B port for recovery and CAN bus on a three-pin terminal block with its own transceiver complete the I/O. Options add eight GMSL2 camera inputs, or SDI and HDMI capture through an M.2 card, and the M.2 E-key and B-key slots take Wi-Fi 6E and 5G or LTE. Out-of-band management is optional.

The X6a-AGX takes 12 to 54 V DC through a locking DC jack, so it suits 12, 24 and 48 V supplies, and runs fanless from -20 to 60 °C. DFI tests it to IEC 60068-2-27 for shock and IEC 60068-2-64 for vibration, with CE, FCC Class A and RoHS. At about 221 x 200 x 80 mm and 4.2 kg, this edge AI computer wall mounts with the supplied brackets.
