Neousys Nuvo-2860VTC: A Cost-Effective Intel Atom In-Vehicle Computer with Secure M12 Connectivity
The compact fanless system pairs a 12W Intel Atom x7425E processor with rugged M12 PoE+ Ethernet ports, targeting fleet, transit and video surveillance deployments that demand reliable multi-camera connectivity and wide-range vehicle power support.
Neousys Technology has launched the Nuvo-2860VTC, a compact fanless in-vehicle computer built around Intel's Atom x7425E processor. Measuring just 206 × 144 × 65 mm, the system is designed to handle real-time video processing, vehicle data acquisition, and fleet connectivity in a small, low-power footprint suited to space-constrained vehicle installations.
The headline feature is the unit's connectivity design for demanding vehicle environments. Nuvo-2860VTC integrates four M12 GbE PoE+ ports, giving integrators mechanically locking, vibration-resistant connections for Ethernet cameras and other PoE-powered peripherals. By delivering power and data over a single M12 cable run, the design reduces the separate power wiring typically required for camera installations, simplifying cabling in multi-camera vehicle setups.
Beyond the PoE+ ports, the system includes dual SocketCAN ports for vehicle bus integration, two USB 3.2 ports, and a multi-mode COM port for sensors and legacy peripherals. Expansion is handled through one M.2 3042/3052 B-Key slot and two full-size mPCIe slots, supporting 4G/5G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GNSS modules without altering the core hardware platform. Storage is configurable via one M.2 2280 NVMe/SATA SSD slot plus a 2.5-inch SATA drive bay, letting integrators size storage to the application.
Power and environmental robustness are addressed through an 8-35V DC wide-voltage input with built-in ignition power control, allowing the system to manage vehicle power cycling without external circuitry. The fanless chassis is rated for -40°C to 70°C operation, and the platform carries E-Mark and EN 50155 EMC (EN 50121) certification, positioning it for compliance-driven rail and road vehicle deployments.

Neousys positions the Nuvo-2860VTC for fleet management, public transportation, commercial vehicles, and in-vehicle video surveillance—applications where reliable multi-camera connectivity, vehicle data acquisition, and flexible wireless communication are critical operational requirements rather than optional extras.
"Vehicle computing systems need to withstand more than just computing workloads. Reliable connections, flexible I/O, and stable power management are also critical for long-term operation," said Brian Hsieh, Product Manager of Neousys Technology.
For integrators building multi-camera fleet or transit systems, the combination of locking M12 PoE+ ports, wide DC input tolerance, and EN 50155 certification addresses common failure points in vehicle deployments—loose connectors, power transients, and thermal extremes—without requiring a premium processor tier.
