Why AD30NU
Built for sealed, quiet boxes
Power Budget
6W CPU, 30W system
Alder Lake-N N100 at 6W TDP with a 30W DC input — the whole platform runs cool enough for fanless, dust-sealed enclosures.
Serial Density
Eight serial channels
Two DB9 COM ports, two RS485 and a four-port RS232 header: enough serial legs for SCADA-style field wiring on one 120 mm board.
Networking
Dual i226-V GbE
Two Intel Gigabit ports for control networks on separate segments, or LAN failover in remote equipment; LAN2 can also be an Intel i211.
Footprint
120×120 mm NANO
Vertical HDMI/DP connectors and 2.0 mm expansion headers keep the board flat in shallow panel PC and DIN-rail box builds.

Where It Fits
Field wiring, panel PCs and OEM lines
The AD30NU is the board to spec when a machine builder needs serial reach, a small fanless footprint and a low power budget. Typical deployments:
- Machine control panels: RS485 legs to drives and sensors, DB9 COM to the HMI, dual GbE to separate the control and office networks.
- Sealed panel PCs: the 6W platform keeps the system fanless, so an IP-rated front bezel can close around it without thermal compromises.
- OEM gateway boxes: with RS232/485 field ports and an M.2 E-Key WiFi/BT option, the board becomes a compact protocol bridge for retrofit projects.
