InHand Networks EdgeComputer900 Series (EC900)

The EC900 series edge computer(EC900) is a high performance edge computer developed for industrial IoT applications. The EC900 is providing a powerful computing platform with an ARM Cortex-A55@2.0GHz quad-core processor and 4GB of RAM and 16GB of eMMC FLASH. Based on Debian OS, the EC900 provides a secondary development platform with support for C/C++ /Java/Python/.Net/JavaScript,etc, which is easy for users to develop and port applications. With the built-in DeviceSupervisor? Agent, the device provisioning process is easier than ever. The EC900 supports Secure Boot, TPM, etc, to ensure the security of user software and sensitive data.


Powerful computing capabilities with high performance

Rockchip RK3568 processor, ARM-Quad-Cortex-A55, up to 2.0GHz. Built-in MaliG52-2EE GPU and discrete NPU, up to 1.0 TOPS AI computing power. On-board 4GB-LPDDR4 memory and 16GB/32GB eMMC.

Linux Debian OS provides a flexible and open platform for free programming in a variety of high-level languages such as Java/Python/.Net/JavaScript, etc., you are no longer limited by the challenges of the inability to cross-compile dependent libraries and the lack of root permission in the custom Linux, improving your development efficiency and effectiveness.


Built-in DeviceSupervisor? Agent service for easy data collection, processing and cloud deployment

Built-in DeviceSupervisor? Agent service allows users to collect data from mainstream industrial equipment and easily upload them to the cloud platform without requiring any programming, but simple configuration. You can also pre-process the data locally to reduce upload data traffic and pressure on the cloud, lowering operating costs.

Supports mainstream industrial protocols, including Modbus RTU/TCP/ASCII, IEC60870-5-104, IEC60870-5-101, OPC UA, ISO on TCP, Mitsubishi MC
Supports docking with major public IoT cloud platforms: Amazon AWS, Microsoft AZURE, Alibaba Cloud, etc., aiming to providing best IoT cloud solutions and services.


Extensive interfaces for multiple scenarios

• 2*10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet port
• 2*RS232/RS485/RS422 Serial port
• 1*HDMI 2.0
• Other optional ports: 4*DI, 4*DO, I/O, Wi-Fi 5, BLE 4.2, GPS, CAN, etc.

Complete security protection, ensuring data security and privacy

• Patch Management&Vulnerability Remediation for Linux, Keeping systems secure without any worries;
• Supports Secure Boot, preventing malware attacks;
• Supports TPM 2.0, which enables greater encryption flexibility, improving the security of your data.

Uninterrupted Internet access from anywhere

Guaranteed device interconnection via globally deployed 4G LTE or 5G, based on our decades of cellular network communication experience,

Supports Gigabit Ethernet and Wi-Fi to provide reliable and uninterrupted Internet access, offering the mutual backup of wired network, cellular,and Wi-Fi .


Fully Industrial-grade Design

• Rugged products with high quality;
• EMC level 3, IP30, with -20°C~70°C wide operating temperatures, +12~48VDC wide voltage power inputs.

All of these rugged designs can tolerate the extreme conditions and work in the industrial sites with high levels of shock and vibration for industrial sites.


InCloud Manager, Remote and batch control with ease

Easy Deployment, Configuration and Management, EC900 deployment can be completed in minutes. The configurations are completely based on the cloud,
Centralized monitoring, graphic display of data for users, applications, devices and networks such as operation status, signal strength and traffic consumption,
True"zero touch" and efficient management anytime anywhere, providing a safe and reliable remote access channel for PLCs, centralized management of up to tens of thousands of distributed sites across areas without coming to locations physically.
