Rugged & Industrial Single Board Computers - VeniceFLEX Family
The VeniceFLEX SBC Family is designed for IoT applications in rugged and industrial environments.
The VeniceFLEX family of industrial single board compuers are built on the NXP™ i.MX 8M Plus processor. This family focuses on wireless flexibility by including flexible sockets that can be either M.2 or Mini-PCIe. They are also CE-ready for European deployments. To compare to the standard Venice Family, read more on the VeniceFLEX vs Venice Comparison page.
Each SBC is made in the USA and features a 64-bit ARM CPU, Flexible expansion slots, multiple Ethernet and an industrial temperature rating. Customization is available here.
