Nowadays, as manufacturers face several challenges such as sudden crises or environmental change, turning into smart factory with Industry 4.0 technology is a key path for them to survive and even grow up in the ever-changing age.

However, before the industrial transformation, there are various complex digital transformation challenges to be overcome such as securely connecting the industrial edge to enterprise networks and simultaneously supporting both new and legacy OT systems, or deterministic communications from industrial endpoints to IT servers without impact on the safe and secure operation of OT endpoints in any way.

To accelerate the transformation of smart factory, besides software technology and infrastructure, suitable hardware with enough performance is the key to help its development. Portwell PCOM-B657VGL, a COM Express Type 6 basic module featuring 11th Generation Intel Core vPro, Celeron 6600HE and Xeon W-11000E Series processors which provide scalable computing power, safety, security, and real-time features, catches the key technical pillars of Industry 4.0-networking, performance, reliability, and security. It also helps you accelerate the development and deployment of your infrastructure and applications.

Featuring the latest 11th Generation Intel Core, Celeron 6600HE and Xeon W-11000E processors with Willow Cove 10nm++, PCOM-B657VGL delivers 65% faster single-thread and multi-tasking compute-intensive applications for workload consolidation. Based on the integrated Intel UHD graphics, PCOM-B657VGL also offers 70% higher graphic and transcode performance which make it suitable for graphic-intensive applications including gaming, digital signage, smart retail and much more.

In addition, PCOM-B657VGL also features the PCIe Gen 4 x16 on embedded x86 platform which doubles the data transfer rates over PCIe Gen 3 for higher bandwidth, lower latency, and lower power, helping to extend bandwidth to external PCIe Graphic Card for AI and AIoT application.

Featuring up to 8 cores/16 threads with 45W/35W, and 25W TDP, industrial use condition and ECC Support, PCOM-B657VGL offers long life product support of 10+ years and can simultaneously support 4 independent 4K displays selecting from three DDI, one VGA, and one dual channel LVDS(18b/24b) interface. PCOM-B657VGL can deliver superior performance in various environments. Its fully integrated and flexible I/O expansion making it the optimal choice for mission critical use conditions and AI edge computing applications in industrial automation, machine vision, communication, IoT, edge computing, medical equipment, transportation, automated test equipment.

Scalable COM Express modules with 11th Generation Intel processors integrating Industry 4.0-centric features, PCOM-B657VGL is the inflection point for manufacturers amid IT/OT convergence. It could be your ideal solution to defend against sudden and drastic environmental change or accelerate the operational efficiency that separates your business from the competition.

Key features of the PCOM-B657VGL COM Express Type-VI Basic Module with Intel 11th Gen H Processor are as follows:
