The Challenge

The security solutions provider faced a pressing challenge in modernizing their security systems to enhance suspicion detection capabilities across various applications, including surveillance, access control, and fire alarm systems. Their objective was to deploy systems equipped with advanced AI computing power capable of immediately identifying security breaches, such as theft or unauthorized access, recorded by sensors and cameras.  

Additionally, they aimed to integrate real-time analytics and rendering functionalities to enable prompt decision-making and proactive response measures. This required a solution with robust AI computing performance that could handle both analytics and rendering simultaneously, ensuring swift detection and response to security incidents.  

Furthermore, the provider recognized the need for industrial-grade durability and reliability, as some of the systems would be deployed outdoors in harsh environments. Despite exploring alternatives, including Jetson AI industrial computers from competitors, none of the solutions met their stringent standards for both computing power and ruggedized design. As a result, the provider sought out a partner who could deliver a comprehensive solution capable of meeting their requirements for powerful AI computing performance, real-time analytics, rendering capabilities, and durability across a range of security applications. 

The Solution

Premio selected the JCO-3000-ORN-A Series, Rugged Fanless Edge AI Computer, would be best suited for their security systems featuring NVIDIA Jetson AI computability and Premio’s configuration flexibility to meet their deployment needs.

 

 

NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX/Nano Module for Powerful AI Performance and Balanced I/O 

The JCO-3000-ORN-A offers flexible performance for seamless deployment optimization. This Mid-Range Edge AI Computer provides support for either NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX or Nano modules for exceptional AI performance of up to 100 TOPS with Orin NX or 40 TOPS with Orin Nano. Additionally, the JCO-3000-ORN-A is optimized for low-power efficiency with 10W and 7W TDP respectively. 

In addition to the Jetson Orin modules, the JCO-3000-ORN-A features balanced I/O options such as 4 high-speed USB 3.0, 2 x Serial ports, 2 LAN ports, and 8 DIO, making it suitable for various edge AI applications. By configuring the 2 LAN ports and 8 isolated DIO, the JCO-3000-ORN-A ensures a high-speed operating system as well as data security when in unexpected harsh circumstances. 

Out-of-Band (OOB) Management

Allxon Out-Of-Band (OOB) device management is a hardware-based technology that enables service providers to remotely manage devices with 24/7 monitoring and management features. With functions like Out-Of-Band power cycling, service providers can simply turn devices on or off remotely, saving time and money traveling on-site for technical support. The JCO-3000-ORN-A features an on-board OOB device management module, which provides remote management capabilities for this security solutions provider to upgrade the system more effectively, reduce CO2 emissions caused by on-site travel for technical support, and streamline technical operations by using over-the-air updates and 4G networks. 

Ruggedized Industrial-grade Design 

The JCO-3000-ORN-A is purpose-built with a rugged chassis and uses a fanless cooling design for mission-critical reliability. The industrial-grade design for the JCO-3000-ORN-A was a critical requirement due to the deployment scenario for wider temperature ranges, shock & vibration from extreme circumstances, and even sudden power loss. In addition, The JCO-3000-ORN-A carries world-class certifications from UL, FCC, and CE for safety standards compliance.  

 

The Benefits

High Power Efficiency & Improved Operation Reliability of NVIDIA Jetson Orin

NVIDIA Jetson Orin is a powerful Edge AI module that enables real-time processing with incredible performance. The Jetson Orin NX and Nano modules have a low power consumption increasing the power efficiency of industrial computers. Similar AI computing performance as GPUs, Jetson Orin is more compact and has a relatively low TDP compared to 50~200W TDP of GPUs, which enhances operation reliability by a low power requirement and reduces the risks of unstable power fluctuations and emergent power shutdown.
