I stumbled onto a really cool little edge device that has some extremely strong specs, including multiple network ports for a strong network appliance application, virtualization, or AI-applications.

The Vecow ECX-4000 is a fanless mini PC that is built for AI and edge use cases. It is powered by the Intel core Ultra 200S processor which uses Intel's hybrid architecture. It has a combined total of 24 cores including P-cores and E-cores together.

Vecow mentions that it is built for the following:

  • in-vehicle computing
  • intelligent logistics
  • public security
  • industrial AI deployments

AI hardware configuration:

  • Intel® Integrated NPU and Xᵉ LPG Graphics Architecture optimize system workload and AI Acceleration, delivering up to 36 TOPS

It has strong hardware specs, including the CPU, as it contains:

  • Dual DDR5 memory slots for up to 96GB of memory 
  • 4 COM ports
  • 6 USB 3.2 Gen2 ports
  • 2 external SIM card sockets
  • Tons of Ethernet options (including 10G SFP+, 2.5G, PoE+, and 1G LAN
  • It also supports a variety of power inputs with a range from 9V to 50V redundant power
Storage features:
  • 2 M.2 Key B Socket (3042/3052/2280, PCIe x2/USB 3, default/SATA)
  • 1 M.2 Key E Socket (2230, PCIe x2/USB2)
  • 2 SATA III (6Gbps) support software RAID 0, 1

Notice the details of the strong networking capabilities, tons of multi-gig capabilities

LAN 1 Intel® I219LM GigE LAN supports iAMT
LAN 2 Intel® I226IT 2.5GigE LAN supports TSN
PoE
LAN 3 Intel® I226IT 2.5GigE IEEE 802.3at (25.5W/48V) PoE+
LAN 4 Intel® I226IT 2.5GigE IEEE 802.3at (25.5W/48V) PoE+
LAN 5 Intel® I226IT 2.5GigE IEEE 802.3at (25.5W/48V) PoE+
LAN 6 Intel® I226IT 2.5GigE IEEE 802.3at (25.5W/48V) PoE+
2.5G Ethernet (ECX-4025R/4025)
LAN 7  Intel® I225 2.5GigE LAN
LAN 8 Intel® I225 2.5GigE LAN
LAN 9 Intel® I225 2.5GigE LAN
10G SFP+ (ECX-4071R/4071)
LAN 7  Intel® X710-BM2 supports IEEE 802.3 10GBASE-T 
LAN 8 Intel® X710-BM2 supports IEEE 802.3 10GBASE-T
