JB-JAX-ONX8 Overview
Many industrial inspection and automation jobs need Orin NX performance but not the 16GB module’s memory, and a DIN rail box keeps the AI computer inside the existing cabinet. The JB-JAX-ONX8 is the Orin NX 8GB model in the Diamond Systems JETBOX-JACKSON series, a fanless DIN rail PC built on Diamond’s Jackson carrier board.
NVIDIA rates the Jetson Orin NX 8GB module at up to 70 TOPS, and the Diamond Linux OS based on NVIDIA JetPack supports Super Mode, quoted at 117 TOPS in the manual. That covers defect detection, label verification and sensor fusion on a handful of camera streams. The unit ships as Diamond’s JB-JAX-ONX8-1T-01, with the operating system on a 1TB NVMe SSD, and a 2TB SSD is available by special order.
On the front panel are two Gigabit Ethernet ports on RJ-45, two USB 3.2 ports with USB 2.0 fallback and one HDMI output. Serial covers one RS-232 port on DB9 and one RS-232/485 port on RJ-12, set by jumper, alongside one CAN port on DB9 and 16 GPIO on a DB25 connector with 3.3 or 5 V levels. Internally there is a PCIe/USB minicard socket with a nano SIM socket and an M.2 E-key 2230 socket, and Diamond can fit Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or modem modules at the factory. Front-panel reset and recovery buttons are recessed.
Power is 8-20 V DC through a pluggable screw terminal block. The JB-JAX-ONX8 runs fanless from -25 to +80 °C, cooled through its aluminum heat sink cover, mounts on a DIN rail or shelf and is RoHS compliant. The JB-JAX-ONX16 carries the Orin NX 16GB for more headroom, and the JB-JAX-ONA8 the Orin Nano 8GB. We supply every unit configured, with the JetPack image loaded and the system tested before delivery.
