APU2E4 Embedded Box Starter Kit, Intel i211 NIC
PC Engines APU2E4 Embedded Box Starter Kit - 1 GHz, 4 GB RAM, 3x LAN, Intel i211 NIC
The successor to the successful ALIX board combines the previous functionality of ALIX.2D13 and ALIX.6F2 in a single board with more computing power, more processor performance and faster data memory and is suitable for many more tasks.
The PC Engines APU System Board is a low-cost single board computer (SBC) based on AMD Embedded G Series processors for a wide range of applications such as (wireless) LAN router, firewall, load balancer, VPN router, thin client, compact server, NAS, etc.
The system can be booted from SD card, USB media, mSATA SSD module, SATA port and via the network. The AMD Quad-Core processor with a clock speed of 1 GHz is provided with 4 GByte RAM as standard. The entire board stands out due to its low power consumption.
