I found 9 Jetson Orin Nano carrier boards whose rated power input range includes 48 V. The table below lists all of them by highest rated input voltage.

Things to check for your forklift:
- Voltage headroom: A pack labelled 48 V can run above that figure, for example when fully charged or during voltage spikes. Check your pack's highest voltage against each board's upper limit. The LI-ONO-CB-GMSL2-8CAM stops at exactly 48 V and the D137 at 50 V, so they leave the least margin. The RAIBOARD-ORNX goes up to 75 V and the Connect Tech Hadron boards up to 60 V, so they leave the most. leopardima... +2leopardimaging.com ↗“power.power_input=9-48 V”professional.avermedia.com ↗“power.power_input=12-50 V”forecr.io ↗“power.power_input=10-75 V”
- Built for vehicles: The RAIBOARD-ORNX is a railway-grade board. It is rated IP67, and its shock and vibration rating is EN61373, stated as applying "with Raibox chassis." forecr.io +1forecr.io ↗“Railway-grade carrier board for NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano / Orin NX”forecr.io ↗“mechanical.ip_rating=IP67”
- CAN bus: The reComputer Robotics J401 has 5 CAN ports, which may help if you're connecting to the forklift's controllers. seeedstudi...seeedstudio.com ↗“io.can_port_count=5”
What I couldn't confirm: Many other Orin Nano-compatible carrier boards have no power input range listed in the catalog. Some of them may also accept 48 V, but I can't confirm that, so I left them out. If one of those boards interests you, check the manufacturer's datasheet.
