The AI-Box TX2 has a similar build like its earlier 7th Gen Kaby Lake-based mini-PCs, but it is the smallest of all with 155 x 120 x 49mm dimensions. The AI-Box TX2 is designed based on the Jetson TX2 module, which is fitted with dual high-end “Denver 2” Arm cores and 4x Cortex-A57 cores. The AI-Box TX2 offers 8GB 128-bit LPDDR4 and 32GB eMMC. The AI-Box TX2 also has an optional microSD slot and a standard M.2 M-key 2280 slot with SATA and PCIe 2.0 x4. It also supports an optional NVMe SSD. An optional 802.11ac (WiFi 5) with Bluetooth module is available, as well as dual SMA connectors for antennas. The AI-Box TX2 offers GbE, USB 2.0, and 2x USB 3.0 ports. A mini-HDMI 2.0 port supports 4K displays, as well as optional CAN, UART, and I2C interfaces. The system is protected by an optional power input for a second supply or UPS, and also an optional DIN-rail power supply.

The system offers various mounting options, such as DIN-rail, VESA arm, and wall mounting. The system operates at 8-10W, with a less than 4W in idle. Option to customize the system by special order is available. The 256-core Pascal GPU and its CUDA libraries enable AI and machine learning algorithms useful in applications for drones, robotics, and a host of technology.

Other Cirrus7 mini-PCs include:

Cirrus7 Nimbini v2 Gemini Edition: The 157 x 157 x 81mm Nimbini v2 models are built on Intel NUC baseboards, and support dual 4K displays.
