FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
NEXCOM
Launches VTC 7280-xC5 Fanless AI Vehicle Computer for In-Vehicle AI and
Public Transport Applications
Compact,
Rugged for Extreme Environments, Intel Core Ultra Meteor Lake H Boosts
Performance 30%
New Taipei City, Taiwan –
May 29th, 2025 – NEXCOM is pleased
to expand its range of in-vehicle AI-assisted telematics computers,
with the new VTC 7280-xC5. These compact, fanless devices are centered
around Intel’s first AI-oriented CPU with powerful in-built NPU and GPU
cores, the Intel® Core™ Ultra Meteor Lake H series. The VTC 7280-xC5
computers are currently available in two variants the VTC 7280-7C5 and
VTC 7280-5C5 (driven by Intel’s CPU Ultra7 and CPU Ultra5
respectively). These Intel® Core™ Ultra Meteor-Lake H processors
deliver up to 26 TOPS of AI computing power.
Thanks to the upgraded CPU and I/O function enhancements, the VTC
7280-xC5 offers a 30% performance boost over its predecessors. The
compact, rugged, fanless design fits into space-constrained areas and
operates reliably in harsh conditions. It is ideal for numerous
in-vehicle applications, including Edge AI and public transportation
security surveillance.
Responsive
AI at the Edge
The computer’s native AI and machine learning capabilities make
possible fast on-board processing of complex tasks including image
recognition, video input analysis, sensor synthesis, audio analysis,
speech recognition and more. An expansion socket for a Hailo AI module
can augment the CPU’s powerful AI processing when required. These
features are particularly useful in safety, surveillance and human
communication applications.
Extensive
I/O and Communication Interfaces
Key features include POE ports suitable for IP cameras, WLAN, and 9-36V
DC/IGN control. The computer has massive expansion and communications
potential including 5x 2.5GbE PoE++, USB 3.2 and 3x USB 2.0, 2x
isolated CAN FD, three serial ports, NVMe/2.5-inch SSD, 4x nano-SIM
slot, two HDMI, and a wide-range 9-36V DC with ignition control. As an
Edge AI computer, the VTC 7280-xC5 supports multi-LTE/5G and Wi-Fi 5/6
for cloud SaaS to provide AIoT/AI inference services.
Robust,
Durable and Standards Compliant
Designed to withstand harsh environments, the VTC 7280-xC5 operates at
temperatures ranging from -40°C to 60°C and complies with the
MIL-STD-810H military standard for vibration and shock resistance. A
built-in heater ensures stable low temperature operation. This computer
is certified to meet global standards, including CE/FCC Class A, UKCA,
and E mark (E13).
