Vecow ECX-4000 Intel Core Ultra Fanless AI Computer with Dual LAN and Dual SSD Trays

The ECX-4000-2R keeps the two-port networking of the base Vecow ECX-4000 series build and adds two front-access SSD trays. It suits fanless AI computer roles such as data logging and model inference on vehicles or lines where drives need to be swapped without opening the unit.

  • 2.5GbE with TSN plus GbE: One Intel I226IT 2.5GbE port with TSN and one Intel I219LM GbE port with iAMT for remote management.
  • Intel Core Ultra 200S with NPU: Arrow Lake-S processors up to 24 cores, with integrated NPU and Xe LPG graphics delivering up to 36 TOPS for inference.
  • Two Front-Access SSD Trays: Two SATA III SSD trays with software RAID 0 or 1, plus an M.2 Key M PCIe x4 slot for the boot drive.
  • Fanless -40 °C to 75 °C: Passive cooling rated -40 °C to 75 °C with a 35 W CPU, or -40 °C to 55 °C with a 65 W CPU, with no fan to wear out.
  • EN 50155 EMC and 9-50 V DC: EN 50155 and EN 50121-3-2 EMC listings with redundant 9-50 V DC inputs and 16-mode software ignition control.

ECX-4000-2R Overview

Data captured at the edge often has to travel back on a drive rather than over a network. The ECX-4000-2R is the two-port fanless AI computer in the Vecow ECX-4000 series built for that workflow, with two front-access SSD trays in place of the internal storage of the ECX-4000-2G.

Inside the ECX-4000-2R, Vecow uses Intel Core Ultra 200S processors (Arrow Lake-S) on the W880 chipset, from the 14-core Core Ultra 5 245 to the 24-core Core Ultra 9 285 in 65 W or 35 W versions. The integrated NPU and Xe LPG graphics deliver up to 36 TOPS, which suits OpenVINO inference for detection, classification and anomaly checks without a separate accelerator. Two DDR5 6400 MHz CSODIMM slots take up to 96 GB, with ECC as an option, and Intel vPro, TSN, TCC and TPM 2.0 support remote management, deterministic networking and hardware-based security.

Networking on the ECX-4000-2R is one 2.5GbE port with TSN and one GbE port with iAMT. Two front-access SSD trays with software RAID 0 or 1 sit beside an M.2 Key M PCIe x4 slot. Six USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, four RS-232/422/485 COM ports, optional 16 isolated DIO, two DisplayPort, HDMI 2.0 and DVI-I outputs, two M.2 Key B sockets and an M.2 Key E socket with two SIM slots for 5G, 4G or Wi-Fi complete the I/O.

The fanless 3.8 kg chassis is rated -40 °C to 75 °C with a 35 W CPU, or -40 °C to 55 °C with a 65 W CPU, and runs on redundant 9-50 V DC inputs with 16-mode software ignition control. EN 50155 and EN 50121-3-2 EMC listings support rail use. The ECX-4000-6R keeps the trays and adds four more 2.5GbE ports.
