More Information
Connect Tech’s Photon is a Jetson™ AI Camera Platform specifically designed to support smart camera applications. This Jetson™ platform provides PoE PD Gigabit Ethernet uplink for data and power and has various I/O connectors positioned for easy packaging into off the shelf camera housings. For applications that don’t require PoE PD ask for our lower cost Non-PoE PD options. Let Connect Tech take your Jetson Nano™ or Jetson Xavier™ NX solution to a commercially deployable platform today.
NOTE: Do not use the 19V power supply from the Jetson Xavier™ NX Dev Kit with the Photon.
Integrations with external storage and WiFi/Bluetooth via Intel are also available, contact [email protected] for more details.
