Optimised for Embedded Computing

Designed for the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 (CM5 and CM5Lite) mounted on the Raspberry Pi CM5 IO Board.

Silent Passive Cooling

Fanless aluminium design conducts heat from the Compute Module 5 through the chassis body, supporting up to 10W TDP.

Zero moving parts ensure stable, long-term performance with no fan noise, dust intake or mechanical failure points.

Custom Thermal Module

Custom aluminium thermal module and high-performance thermal pads conduct heat from the CM5 SoC and M.2 NVMe SSD respectively into the all-aluminium body, which acts as a heatsink to dissipate the heat to the surrounding. Ensures stable thermal management under continuous operation.

Slim 1U Design

Compact 1U profile measuring 185 x 93 x 43.6mm (W x D x H). Ideal for space-constrained installations behind displays, inside AV cabinets or stacked at the network edge.

Front and Rear Panel Layout

Full access to all on-board I/O including dual HDMI 2.0 (4K), dual USB 3.0 Type-A, USB-C power input, Gigabit Ethernet, MIPI CSI/DSI and microSD (CM5Lite). Features two x antenna fitting holes on both front and rear panels for flexible placement.

Wall-Mounting

Supports wall mounting with included brackets for secure, clutter-free installation.

Camera, Display and HAT Expansion

Internal clearance accommodates accessories connected to the CM5 IO Board, including Raspberry Pi-compatible cameras and displays through the MIPI CSI / DSI connectors, M.2 NVMe SSD and 40-pin Raspberry Pi HATs with PoE+ support through compatible third-party HATs. Opens up vision, signage, sensor and powered-Ethernet applications.

1U Rackmountable

Optional 1U 10-inch rackmount front panel available for compact rack deployments in home labs, network closets and edge compute environments.

Perfect for your Build

Easily connect your fanless mini-PC to Wi-Fi with optional external antenna (A-ATN01-BK) and corresponding pigtail (A-ATC01-150GR).

Designed for Long-Life Industrial and Commercial Applications

Suitable for a wide range of always-on deployments, including digital signage, point-of-sale (POS), kiosk systems, edge AI gateways, industrial automation, network appliances and IoT applications.

Express Your Branding & Identity

Optional bespoke engraving and colouring solutions to highlight and differentiate your fanless system solution. Requires a minimum order quantity - please talk to our Team about the different options available.
