The system accepts 8V to 48V DC input via an M12 L-coded connector, with reverse polarity protection and built-in ignition power control (IGN/GND signal). Maximum power consumption, tested with an i9-13900E CPU and NVIDIA L4 GPU under burn-in load, is approximately 192-194W in 35W CPU TDP mode and 234-238W in 65W CPU TDP mode, depending on input voltage. Actual consumption varies by configuration.
With a 35W CPU, the system operates from -40°C to 70°C. With a CPU at or above 65W TDP, it operates -40°C to 70°C when configured in 35W TDP mode, or -40°C to 60°C when configured in 65W TDP mode. Storage temperature is -40°C to 85°C, and humidity tolerance is 10%-90% non-condensing. The system is rated IP69K for dust/water ingress, complies with MIL-STD-810H for vibration (514.8C-IV Category 4) and shock (516.8 Procedure I), and meets CE/FCC Class A per EN 55032/EN 55024, plus EN 50121 (EN 50155 EMC).
The system supports up to 64 GB DDR5 4800 SDRAM across two SODIMM slots. Internal storage includes one M.2 2280 M-key socket (PCIe Gen4x4) for an NVMe SSD, and two internal SATA ports for 2.5" HDD/SSD, supporting RAID 0/1. Expansion is available via 3x full-size mini-PCIe sockets with SIM slot, 1x M.2 2242/3052 B-key socket with dual SIM slots for a 5G/4G module, and 1x M.2 2230 E-key socket for Wi-Fi.
Neousys has tested the SEMIL-2000 series with Microsoft Windows 10 LTSC 2021 (x64) and Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS, 22.04 LTS, 22.04.1 LTS, or other Linux distributions with kernel version 5.15 or later. For Linux, users may need to manually compile and install drivers for the Intel graphics or I226 GbE controller if not already included in the kernel, and some distributions may have limited support for features like triple independent display and RAID.
The SEMIL-2000GC measures 440mm (W) x 310mm (D) x 90.5mm (H), excluding the rack-mount bracket, and weighs 12 kg. It supports both rack-mounting and wall-mounting as standard mounting methods.
The system provides expansion slots that support wireless connectivity: an M.2 2230 E-key socket for a Wi-Fi module, and an M.2 2242/3052 B-key socket with dual SIM slots for a 5G/4G module. Additional wireless, GPS, or CAN modules can also be added via the 3x full-size mini-PCIe sockets, which also include a SIM slot.
The system has 4x IEEE 802.3at PoE+ ports (M12 X-coded, 2.5GbE) with a 100W total power budget, delivering up to 25.5W per port to a connected Powered Device (PD), such as an IP camera. PoE automatically detects whether a connected device requires power, so standard (non-PoE) Ethernet devices are also compatible. Each port also has a dedicated PCI Express link for maximum network performance.
The SEMIL-2000GC is a 19" 2U rack-mount IP69K waterproof computer that includes an NVIDIA L4 GPU, supporting Intel 14th/13th/12th-Gen Core processors with 2x M12 10GbE and 4x M12 PoE+ ports. The non-GC SEMIL-2000 series is a 19" 2U half-rack mount IP69K waterproof computer with the same processor and port support but without the integrated NVIDIA L4 GPU.
How-to Guides
- Disconnect all cables and shut down the system.
- Turn the system upside-down and place it on a flat, sturdy surface.
- Unscrew the indicated bottom panel screws in descending order and gently lift the panel to access internal components. If hard drives are installed, disconnect the SATA/power connector by pulling on the connector body, not the cable.
- Locate the M.2 slot underneath the heat-spreader, then remove the heat-spreader by removing its screws.
- Insert the M.2 NVMe SSD module at a 45-degree angle, press down, and secure it with a screw.
- Remove the protective film from the thermal pad if installing for the first time, then reinstall the heat-spreader.
- Make sure the O-ring is properly seated in its groove, tuck all cables back into the enclosure, and replace the bottom panel.
- Secure the panel screws at a torque of 6.3-7.7 kgf-cm in ascending order to complete the installation.
Note: Installing internal modules yourself may affect the system's waterproof rating; consult Neousys/CoastIPC before doing so.
- Disconnect all cables and shut down the system.
- Turn the system upside-down and place it on a flat, sturdy surface.
- Unscrew the indicated bottom panel screws in descending order and gently lift the panel to expose the internal components.
- Identify the mini-PCIe slots and their corresponding SIM slots. If installing a 5G/4G mini-PCIe module, install the SIM card first by releasing the SIM holder, placing the SIM card, and securing the holder.
- Insert the mini-PCIe module into the slot at a 45-degree angle, press down, and secure it with a screw.
- Refer to the module's manual to connect the antenna. Installing an SMA antenna may require returning the unit to an authorized distributor to retain waterproof capability.
- Make sure the O-ring is properly seated, tuck cables back in, and replace the bottom panel.
- Secure the panel screws at a torque of 6.3-7.7 kgf-cm in ascending order to complete the installation.
- Locate the IGN input on the DC-in M12 L-coded connector.
- Connect the vehicle's Battery+ line (12V for a sedan, 24V for a bus/truck) to V+.
- Connect the vehicle's Battery-/GND line to GND.
- Connect the ACC (accessory) line to IGN.
- In BIOS, go to
[Power] > [Ignition Power Control]and set the IGN Operation Mode along with power-on/power-off delay, battery voltage, and low battery threshold as needed. - In Windows, set "When I press the power button" to "Shut down" so the OS performs a full shutdown that the ignition control module can detect; otherwise the system will hard-off after 10 minutes.
Warning: Confirm DC voltage is correct before connecting power. This SKU supports up to 48V input; exceeding the maximum supported voltage will damage the system.
- Locate the rack-mount kit: two brackets, two grips, and eight screws.
- Secure a bracket to each side of the enclosure using the supplied screws.
- Repeat on the other side of the enclosure so both brackets are installed.
- Optionally, attach the grips found in the accessory box by matching them to the openings on the rack-mount brackets and securing them with the M3 screws provided.
- Install at least two hard drives or SSDs (back up any existing data first, as RAID setup may cause irreversible data loss).
- Press F2 at boot to enter BIOS setup, then go to
[Advanced] > [System Agent (SA) Configuration] > [VMD setup menu]. - Select
[Enable VMD controller]and set it to Enabled, then press F10 to save and reboot. - On reboot, press F3 to enter the Device Manager configuration utility, then select
[Intel Rapid Storage Technology]. - Select "Create RAID Volume," name the volume, choose RAID Level (RAID-0 or RAID-1), select the disks, set stripe size (RAID-0 only) and capacity, then select "Create Volume."
- To install Windows onto the RAID volume, prepare a bootable Windows USB with the unzipped "f6vmdflpy-x64" driver files, select "Load Driver" during Windows install, browse to the driver folder, select "Intel RST VMD Controller 467F," and continue with standard Windows installation onto the newly available RAID volume.
