ASUS IoT has given its PE series edge AI systems a round of refresh to help them carry the latest processors from Intel.
The 14th Gen Intel Core processors are among the most sought-after edge computing solutions thanks to the high performance and flexible power options for tasks involving machine vision and high-resolution graphics. This latest generation features a socketed SoC, enabling maximum flexibility in build-to-order configurations to accelerate the deployment of edge infrastructure with low latency, high throughput, and robust on-premise computing capabilities.
Hosting up to the Intel Core i9 variant, selected systems such as the flagship PE8000G can also support dual GPU installation with up to 450W power budget for each. The lineup covers the PE8000G, PE6000G, PE4000G, PE5101D, and PE5100D models as of now.
With a 2x SO-DIMM memory slot supporting up to 64GB DDR5-5600, the systems will have higher reliability for processing information. Additionally, the models mentioned above come with a wide variety of DC inputs ranging from 8V to 48V plus native ignition power control, further crafting the systems to be deployable in different environments from the get-go.
The brand also gave some sample use cases according to each system’s key points:
- PE8000G – Dual 450W power allocation for two GPUs, suitable for complex visual tasks like autonomous driving, roadside units (RSUs), and AI inferencing and training
- PE6000G – Single 450W power allocation for one GPU, ideal for intelligent video analytics (IVA), high-throughput inference, and middle/last-mile delivery
- PE4000G – Single 200W Power allocation for one GPU, well-suited for factory automation, machine vision, and law enforcement applications
- PE5101D / PE5100D – Rugged simple to handle extreme situations; Dual 2.5-inch hot-swappable HDD trays with RAID 0/1 support, aimed for intelligent transportation systems, as well as retail kiosks, ATMs, and vending machines.
