Overview
The Avalue EPC-WCL is a fanless Edge AI mini PC built on Intel's Core Series 3 Wildcat Lake platform, rated for up to 40 TOPS of combined AI performance from the SoC's Xe3 graphics and integrated NPU. Avalue positions it for local real-time inference, vision processing and speech recognition rather than cloud-dependent use.
The 177 x 126 x 57 mm chassis accepts up to 48 GB of DDR5-6400 in a single SO-DIMM socket, with an M.2 2280 slot for NVMe storage, an M.2 2230 E-key slot for Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6.0, and an M.2 3052 B-key slot for 4G LTE or 5G. Networking is dual 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet from Intel I226LM and I226V controllers.
Display connectivity is unusually generous for a fanless 15 W box: HDMI, DisplayPort and a USB Type-C port with DisplayPort Alt Mode support up to three simultaneous displays, and the USB-C port also provides 45 W Power Delivery so a single cable can carry power, data and video. The unit takes a wide 12-24 V DC input through a Phoenix connector, offers two BIOS-selectable RS232/422/485 COM ports, and carries a hardware watchdog plus CPU temperature and voltage monitoring for unattended operation.
Key Benefits
Up to 40 TOPS combined AI performance at a 15 W TDP, with no fan. Up to 48 GB DDR5-6400 in a single SO-DIMM slot is exceptional for a mini PC format. USB-C with 45 W Power Delivery plus DisplayPort Alt Mode reduces cabling to one cable. Triple display output, dual 2.5GbE and wide 12-24 V DC input suit industrial control-room and kiosk deployment.
Applications
Real-time local inference and vision processing, speech-recognition front-ends, industrial control-room and operator displays, kiosk and digital signage with triple output, fanless edge nodes in dust-sensitive environments.
