Unleash the Power of the Intel^® Processor N97

The NIFE 106 is powered by the Intel^® Processor N97, featuring 4 cores and 4 threads with a 12W TDP for efficient, low-latency performance. This makes it ideal for demanding applications that require fast, real-time data processing. Compared to its predecessor, the NIFE 105 with the Intel^® Atom™ x5-E3930 processor, the N97 delivers a remarkable 5x overall performance boost and doubles single-thread speed, ensuring quicker and more responsive performance for industrial tasks.

The Swiss Army Knife of Industrial Computing

The NIFE 106 series is the Swiss Army knife of industrial computing, designed with adaptable I/O options to meet diverse industrial needs. With three 2.5 GbE LAN ports, including one for Ethernet redundancy, it delivers reliable connectivity that keeps operations running smoothly even in case of disruptions, minimizing financial losses due to system outages. Isolated COM ports protect against voltage spikes and ground loops, ensuring stable connections to peripheral devices like PLCs, sensors, and actuators.

Don't Judge NIFE 106 by Its Cover

Despite its small size, it operates reliably in extreme conditions, with an operating temperature range of -20°C to 70°C (-4°F to 158°F) and meets industrial-grade certifications (EN61000-6-2 and EN61000-6-4). Designed for durability, it ensures consistent performance in demanding industrial settings. Plus, with the integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0, it secures sensitive data and ensures uninterrupted, safe operations, making NIFE 106 the ideal choice for critical systems.
