AAEON's UP Squared Pro — UP Squared Pro from AAEON

AAEON has introduced the UP Squared Pro that offers developers an updated platform based on the popular UP Squared platform, offering greater expandability and I/O features. With support for 5G modules and AI accelerators, the UP Squared Pro takes AI Edge computing to the Pro level. The UP Squared Pro is powered by Intel Celeron N3350, Pentium N4200, and Atom E3950 processors (formerly known as Apollo Lake), and features on-board physical TPM 2.0, to enhance data security.

The UP Squared Pro comes with three M.2 slots, including M.2 2230 E-Key, M.2 2280 M-Key, and M.2 3042/3052 B-Key for providing better expandability. These slots allow users and developers to quickly add on functionality such as Wi-Fi and AI accelerators such as the AI Core XM2280 module featuring two IntelbMovidius Myriad X VPUs.

Along with a 40-pin HAT expansion and expandable storage with SATA III connectors, the UP Squared Pro can support 5G cellular cards, allowing developers to take advantage of lower latency and higher speeds for wireless network deployment. Developers can now leverage faster internet speeds with two Intel i210 Gigabit Ethernet ports, and wide voltage input (12V~24V) allows the UP Squared Pro to be deployed to industrial environments.

The UP Squared Pro features an Audio Jack allowing input and output, as well as three USB3.2 Gen 1 ports, two USB2.0 headers, and two COM port headers. Apart from these, the device also features HDMI, eDP, and DP video outputs, and is capable of supporting up to three independent displays, perfect for Smart Surveillance and Retail applications.

UP Squared Pro is compatible with the Intel Distribution of OpenVINO Toolkit, providing powerful software to help developers get their projects up and running quickly.
