ESD Warning
Electronic components and circuits are sensitive to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). When
handling any circuit board assemblies including AVerMedia AVerAI products, it is highly
recommended that ESD safety precautions can be observed. ESD safe best practices can include,
but are not limited to the following ones.
1. Leave the circuit board in the antistatic package until it is ready to be installed.
2. Use a grounded wrist strap when handling the circuit board. At a minimum, you need to
touch a grounded metal object to dissipate any static charge, which may be present on you.
3. Avoid handling the circuit board in the carpeted areas.
4. Handle the board by the edges and avoid the contact with the components.
5. Only handle the circuit boards in ESD safe areas, which may include ESD floor and/or table
mats, wrist strap stations, and ESD safe lab coats.

1.0 Introduction
AVerMediaAVerAI AG411B includes one fully featured carrier board and one associated Box
PC’s which is all developed for NVIDIA®JetsonTM AGX Xavier™ modules. AVerAI
AG411_AG411B provides not only the access to a great list of latest interfaces on AGX
Xavier™ modules but also one RS-485 interface, one CAN bus with transceiver, and one RTC
battery as the function enrichment.
AG411B provides two M.2 Key M 2280 and three mPCIe slots alternatively for Xavier to
receive various video inputs by using AVerMedia’s capture cards. These two M.2 Key M 2280
and four mPCIe slots share four PCIe Gen2 lanes, so AG411_AG411B Box PC can provide
three different combinations for developers to install video capture cards alternatively, such as
two M.2 Key M 2280 slots, three mPCIe slots, or two mPCIe slots with one M.2 Key M 2280
slot.
By using AVerMedia’s extended video capture cards, Xavier is able to receive HDMI, VGA,
SDI, composite video inputs, and even dual 4Kp30 HDMI video inputs for different application
scenarios.
Operating with NVIDIA® JetsonTM AGX Xavier™ module and the rich I/O functions, AVerAI
AG411_AG411B is the perfect choice in building the high performanceAI edge computing
platform for the intelligent video analytics
