Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
The EDGEBoost I/O modules are proprietary daughterboards and carrier boards with a particular set of I/O that can be integrated into Premio industrial computers that feature an EDGEBoost bracket.
No, the EdgeBoost I/O module is designed specifically for specific Premio industrial computers that have an available EDGEboost bracket slot. Make sure your computer model is compatible with the module before adding it into an I/O configuration. Contact our embedded computing experts and they will help configure your computing solution to meet your optimal I/O requirements.
No, EDGEBoost I/O are proprietary modules that are specifically designed for Premio fanless industrial computers that feature EDGEBoost brackets. Contact us today and our embedded computing experts will help configure your computing solution to meet your optimal I/O requirements.
The modular EdgeBoost I/O is an advanced technology that provides a wide range of input and output options for your Premio fanless industrial computers. Many traditional computing systems are limited to the fixed I/O on the motherboard. However, EDGEBoost I/O modules provide a streamlined solution for maximum I/O scale for specific applications.
I/O operations are important for computers because they enable communication, enhance functionality, improve performance, and meet user needs. A computer system that offers a range of I/O options can provide better performance and functionality, making it a more versatile and valuable tool for real-time processing for data generation at the edge.
No, but it depends on the application requirements and specific I/O demands. All Premio industrial computers come with fixed I/O directly on the motherboard that cover popular I/O requirements (see product data sheets for I/O layouts). EDGEBoost I/O modules are optional and provide additional I/O, NVMe storage, or even AI acceleration if needed through a modular design approach.
Yes. EDGEBoost I/O are designed to be modular, making it easy to swap them out for a maintenance-free upgrade for different I/O demands. The modular design allows for easy upgradability and configurability to the fanless industrial computer. Please contact our embedded computing experts for more information about upgrades or replacements.
The Edge AI category of our EDGEBoost I/O modules (EBIO-M2MK and EBIO-2M2BK) offer m.2 socket support for validated m.2 AI acceleration and NVMe storage. Please see the module datasheet for specific m.2 socket size options.
The amount of additional I/O ports will depend on how many EDGEBoost Brackets the industrial computer supports. Contact us today and our embedded computing experts will help configure your computing solution to meet your optimal I/O requirements.
Yes, EDGEboost I/O modules are completely tested and validated to withstand the same ruggedized harsh environments that our Premio fanless industrials computers are tested in.
Yes, please review the EDGEboost I/O module compatibility list or contact our embedded computing experts for more information on EDGEBoost I/O configuration.
Yes, it is possible. The RCO-6000 series has a split-architecture design that allows for the simultaneous use of customizable EDGEBoost I/O modules and EDGEBoost Nodes.
