GENERAL INTRODUCTION
1.1 Overview
Vecow EAC-2000 Series is an Arm-based Edge AI Computing System. Powered
by NVIDIA® Jetson Xavier™ NX module, Vecow EAC-2000 Series delivers great
power e󰀩ciency in a small form factor. Featuring 4 GMSL automotive cameras
via rugged FAKRA-Z connectors, EAC-2000 is well suited for industrial and
outdoor environments.
Vecow EAC-2000 is based on the new NVIDIA® Jetson Xavier™ NX module
that provides more than 10x the performance of its widely adopted predecessor,
NVIDIA Jetson TX2. The EAC-2000 is equipped with 4 GigE LAN including
2 PoE+ to simplify cable installations and deployments, 6 antennas to enable
seamless connectivity, and 1 CANBus to o󰀨er faster and robust communication
between vehicles.
With support for operating temperature from -20°C to 70°C, 9V to 50V wide
range DC-in, along with GMSL technology linked with Fakra-Z connectors, EAC-
2000 Series brings small size and easy deployment of AI vision and industrial
applications including Traffic Vision, Public Safety, Auto Optical Inspection,
Smart Factory, AMR/AGV, and any AIoT/Industry 4.0 applications.

2.2.1.6 USB 3.0
There are 4 USB 3.0 connections available supporting up to 5Gb per second data
rate in the front panel of EAC-2000. It is also compliant with the requirements of
Speed (SS), High Speed (HS), Full Speed (FS) and Low Speed (LS).
2.2.1.7 LAN 3, LAN 4 : PoE Ports
There are 2 RJ45 connectors in the front panel of EAC-2000. It supports IEEE
802.3at (PoE+) Power over Ethernet (PoE) connection delivering up to 37W/54V
per port and 1000BASE-T gigabit data signals over standard Ethernet Cat 5/
Cat 6 cable. Each PoE connection is powered by Intel® I350 Gigabit Ethernet
controller and independent PCI express interface to connect with multi-core
processor for network and data transmit optimization. Only when PoE port starts
to supply power to power devices, the dedicated LED will be lightened.
PS. Suggest to use PoE function when power input is over 12V.
The pin-outs of LAN 3 and LAN 4 are listed as follows :
