Frequently Asked Questions
The SEMIL-1300 series provides the following interfaces, mostly via robust M12 connectors:
- 4x IEEE 802.3at Gigabit PoE+ ports (25.5W each) - 1 by Intel I219 and 3 by Intel I210 (M12 X-coded)
- Optional 1x 10 GbE port by Intel X550AT controller (M12 X-coded, build option)
- 1x VGA (M12 A-coded, up to 1920x1200) and 1x DisplayPort (up to 4096x2304)
- 2x 3-wire RS-232 ports (COM1 & COM2, M12 A-coded)
- 1x software-programmable RS-232/422/485 port (COM3, DB9)
- 1x RS-232 port (COM4, DB9)
- 3x USB 3.1 Gen1 ports
- 2x USB 2.0 ports (M12 A-coded) plus 1x internal USB 2.0
- 1x 3.5mm audio jack for mic-in and speaker-out
The SEMIL-1300 series accepts 8 to 48V DC input and includes built-in ignition power control for in-vehicle use. Optional AC-DC power adapters are also available: a 160W adapter (20V/8A) and a 120W adapter (20V/6A), both rated for -30 to 70°C operation.
With a 35W CPU, the system operates from -40°C to 70°C. With CPUs of 65W or higher, the range is -40°C to 70°C when configured in 35W TDP mode, or -40°C to 50°C when configured in 65W TDP mode. For Xeon E 2176G/2278GE, i7-9700E, and i7-8700 running at 65W mode, the maximum operating temperature is limited to 50°C, and thermal throttling may occur under sustained full load. Storage temperature range is -40°C to 85°C, with 10%-90% non-condensing humidity. For sub-zero operation, a wide-temperature HDD or SSD is required.
The SEMIL-1300 series is CE and FCC (Class A, per EN 55032 & EN 55035) certified, and is EN 50155 certified for rail applications. It also meets MIL-STD-810G Method 514.7 Category 4 for vibration and Method 516.7 Procedure I for shock.
The system supports up to 64 GB of ECC/non-ECC DDR4-2666/2400 SDRAM across two SODIMM sockets. For storage, it offers 2x internal SATA ports for 2.5" HDD/SSD installation with RAID 0/1 support, 2x full-size mSATA ports (muxed with mini-PCIe), and 1x M.2 2280 M key socket (PCIe Gen3 x4) for NVMe SSD installation.
Yes. The system includes 1x M.2 3042/3052 B key socket for a selected 4G/5G module and 1x M.2 2242/2252 E key socket for a selected WiFi module. It also has 2x full-size mini PCI Express sockets (muxed with mSATA) for further expansion.
SEMIL-1301 is the standard half-rack rugged fanless computer with M12 I/Os. SEMIL-1311J is the same platform but adds Neousys' patented SuperCAP-based UPS with 2500 watt-second stored energy, providing power backup to sustain and safely shut down the system during power outages. SEMIL-1311J is also slightly heavier at 6 kg versus 5.8 kg for the SEMIL-1301.
The SEMIL-1300 measures 220mm (W) x 310mm (D) x 86.5mm (H), excluding the rack-mount bracket, in a standard 2U 19" half-rack form factor. It supports both rack-mounting and wall-mounting, and a joint plate accessory is available to mount two SEMIL units side by side.
The SEMIL-1300 supports Intel Xeon E (2278GE, 2278GEL, 2176G) or 9th/8th-Gen Core i7/i5/i3 processors (LGA1151 socket), paired with the Intel C246 platform controller hub chipset and integrated Intel UHD Graphics 630. It also supports Intel AMT 12.0 and TPM 2.0.
How-to Guides
- Locate the 2x internal SATA ports inside the SEMIL-1300 chassis.
- Install a 2.5" HDD or SSD into an available SATA port.
- For redundancy or performance, configure RAID 0 or RAID 1 using the two SATA ports as supported by the system.
- Identify the correct M.2 socket for your component: the M.2 2280 M key socket (PCIe Gen3 x4) is for NVMe SSDs, the M.2 3042/3052 B key socket is for a selected 4G/5G module, and the M.2 2242/2252 E key socket is for a selected WiFi module.
- Insert the appropriate M.2 module into its matching socket.
- Secure the module according to the socket's standard mounting screw.
- Confirm your power source is within the supported 8 to 48V DC input range.
- Connect the DC input using the M12-Cable-Kit DC power cable, or use an optional PA-160W-OW (20V/8A) or PA-120W-OW (20V/6A) AC-DC power adapter with cord-end terminals for a terminal block.
- The system's built-in ignition power control can be used for in-vehicle power management.
- Choose either 19" rack-mounting or wall-mounting, both of which are supported by the system's mechanical design.
- Attach the appropriate mounting bracket to the chassis (dimensions are 220mm (W) x 310mm (D) x 86.5mm (H) excluding the rack-mount bracket).
- To mount two SEMIL units side by side, use the optional joint-plate accessory.
