2.5-inch “Industrial Pi” Pico-ITX SBC offers PoE , mini DP++ port

Taiwan based DFI has launched the AL05P “Industrial Pi + PoE” 2.5-inch Pico-ITX SBC powered by an Apollo Lake processor that reminds me of last year’s DFI GHF51 SBC based on AMD Ryzen Embedded R1606G processor but with a larger, and more standard form factor that’s also part of the “Industrial Pi” family.

The board also comes with 4GB RAM, up to 64GB eMMC, a mini DisplayPort video output, two USB 3.1 ports, Gigabit Ethernet with isolated PoE, a mini-PCIe, and more.

    • Max: E3950:12V @ 1.76A (21.12Watt)
  • Dimensions – 100 x 72 mm (2.5″ Pico-ITX form factor)
  • Temperature Range – Operating: 0 to 60°C, -20 to 70°C; storage: -40 to 85°C
  • Humidity – Operating: 5 to 90% RH; storage: 5 to 90% RH

Intel Atom E3900 Pico-ITX BoardThe company also provides a 15mm thick heat spreader for fanless operation, and support for Windows 10 IoT Enterprise (64-bit) and Linux operating systems.

There are other Intel Apollo Lake Pico-ITX SBCs on the market, including Axiomtek PICO317 and Kontron pITX-APL V2.0, but DFI AL05P is the first one we’ve seen with PoE support.

DFI AL05P has launched, but the company did not provide pricing information, nor clear availability details, except it will be available until Q4 2031. More information may be found on the products page and datasheet. You’ll also find DFI AL051 SBC on the former link, a board similar to AL05P without PoE, but including three display interfaces (mDP++, VGA, LVDS), and adding an M.2 socket, a SATA port, and an extra Gigabit Ethernet port. It is sold on Amazon for around $320.

For “industrial” applications, it really needs an additional RJ45 ethernet.

Q4 2031? or Q4 2021?
