Asus IoT PE3000N – A Rugged Jetson T5000 Edge AI Platform for Robotics

ASUS IoT PE3000N MIL-STD-810H-grade Edge AI platform

The ASUS IoT PE3000N is a rugged, MIL-STD-810H-certified Edge AI computer built around the NVIDIA Jetson Thor T5000 module. Designed for robotics, automation, and high-bandwidth machine vision, it targets industrial environments that require massive AI performance, multi-camera setups, and modular I/O.

It integrates a 14-core ARM Neoverse-V3AE CPU, a 2560-core Blackwell GPU with 96 Tensor Cores delivering 2070 FP4 TFLOPS, and 128GB LPDDR5X RAM. The system offers HDMI 2.0 output, GbE and 10GbE ports, four 25GbE links, M.2 slots for storage/wireless, PCIe x4/x8 expansion, dual RS-232/422/485, CAN bus, multiple USB 3.2 ports, and 16-lane CSI for up to 16 GMSL cameras through optional stackable units. It supports WiFi/BT or 4G/5G modules, provides TPM 2.0 security, wide 12–60V DC input, -20 to 60°C operation, PPS/PTP time sync, and modular PoE/GMSL expansion blocks for vision-heavy robotics, inspection, and autonomous systems.
