Neousys POC-700 Intel Core i3-N305 and Atom x7425E Ultra-Compact Fanless Embedded Computers

Machine builders often want a computer the size of a PLC module that can still run vision software and power its own cameras. The POC-700 is the Neousys answer: a DIN-rail unit 64 mm wide with front-facing I/O and four GbE ports, which can carry PoE+, in the same footprint as the earlier POC-500 so cabinet layouts carry over. Front access to every port also keeps wiring tidy when the unit sits between terminal blocks.

The POC-700 series offers two processors. The Intel Core i3-N305 has eight efficient cores at up to 3.8 GHz within 15 W and UHD Graphics with 32 EUs, while the Atom x7425E has four cores at up to 3.4 GHz within 12 W and 24 EUs. Both support Intel OpenVINO for AI inference, with one DDR5-4800 SODIMM up to 16 GB and dTPM 2.0. Neousys quotes up to 1.3 times the CPU performance of the POC-500 and up to 1.8 times the memory bandwidth of DDR4. Storage is an M.2 2280 M key socket at PCIe Gen3 x1 for NVMe, which also accepts SATA, and a mini PCIe socket with a micro SIM slot takes Wi-Fi, LTE, 5G or CAN modules.

Four models combine processor, PoE and UL certification. The POC-715 pairs the Core i3-N305 with four 802.3at PoE+ ports from a 100 W maximum budget, and the POC-715-UL is its UL-certified build with a 30 W PoE budget and a 12 to 35 V input. The POC-712 pairs the Atom x7425E with four GbE ports without PoE, and the POC-712-UL is its UL-certified build.

All POC-700 models share four Intel I350-AM4 GbE ports, four USB 3.2 Gen2 ports with screw-lock, a DP++ output at 4096 x 2160 and an HDMI 1.4b output at 3840 x 2160, one software-programmable RS-232/422/485 port plus three RS-232 ports or one RS-422/485, and 4-channel isolated DI and DO. The MezIO interface adds Neousys modules for extra COM, DIO, USB, a 2.5-inch drive or ignition control. These fanless embedded computers run from -25 °C to 70 °C with MIL-STD-810H vibration and shock, weigh 1.2 kg and mount on a DIN rail as standard, with an optional external 80 mm fan.
