Taipei, Taiwan (February 21, 2023) – ASRock Industrial is bringing the new iEP-5010G Series Industrial IoT Controller with upgrades powered by Intel® Atom® x6000E Processors (Elkhart Lake-PU) for excellence in computing power, featuring fan-less and rugged design with -40~70 °C wide operating temperature and 6-36VDC broad range power inputs for industrial applications. The iEP-5010G Series offer flexible IOs and expansions for communication ranging from 4G LTE, 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, and BT 5.2 RF capabilities. Plus real-time TSN, TCC, Intel® In-Band ECC support, over-the-air (OTA) updates, and remote management, the Series collects and processes real-time data from manifold industrial equipment, connecting edge-to-cloud absolutely. They are the perfect Edge Controller and IoT Gateway in Edge AI applications such as industrial automation, Robotic, AMR, smart retails, smart poles, transportations in smart cities, and much more.

The iEP-5010G Series Industrial IoT Controller offer models including iEP-5010G-010 Basic SKU, iEP-5010G-011 PoE SKU, and iEP-5010G-012 5LAN SKU, featuring the latest Intel® Atom® x6416RE, x6214RE Processors (Elkhart Lake-PU) all in the compact size of 58 x 125 x 157 mm (W x D x H). The Elkhart Lake provides up to 1.7x improvement in single-thread performance, up to 1.5x in multi-thread performance, and 2x graphics performance improvement over previous generation. Highlighting support for two DDR4 3200MHz SO-DIMM DRAM up to 32GB, an excellent fit for computer vision processing. Moreover, with In-Band ECC memory support, the iEP-5010G guarantees reliable computing to protect the system against potential crashes.

The iEP-5010G Series Industrial IoT Controllers are fan-less, with ruggedness designed for straining environments. The wide range of power inputs with phoenix type connector guarantees 6-36V wide range DC input for iEP-5010G-010/012 and 19-36V for iEP-5010G-011, plus full power protection with OCP, OVP, UVP, and 80V Surge Protection. The models also secure a wide range of operating temperature from -40 °C to 70 °C (iEP-5010G-010/012), and high shock/vibration resistance to ensure functionality and durability in harsh environments. For industrial security, TPM 2.0 is built-in to set up a trusted computing platform. Last but not least, you can depend on various mounting options, including DIN rail and wall mount options to satisfy diverse applications.
