The EnGenius E5-NB16 (and the E5-NB16W, which is the same box with Wi-Fi) has the most AI performance of the three EnGenius AI Boxes, at 157 TOPS. It's built on the NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 16GB module. doc.engeni... +1doc.engenius.ai ↗“performance.max_ai_tops=157 TOPS”doc.engenius.ai ↗“built on the NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 16GB module”

| Model | Jetson module | AI performance | Memory |
|---|---|---|---|
| E5-NB16 / E5-NB16W | Jetson Orin NX 16GB | 157 TOPS | 16 GB |
| E5-NB08 / E5-NB08W | Jetson Orin NX 8GB | 117 TOPS | 8 GB |
| E5-NA08 / E5-NA08W | Jetson Orin Nano 8GB | 67 TOPS | 8 GB |
About these numbers:
- The TOPS figures are INT8 sparse, since all three boxes use Orin modules. That means you can compare the three models directly.
- EnGenius doesn't list a separate Super-mode figure for any of these models, so the numbers above are their only stated ratings.
What the three models share: They're all fanless, have 2 Ethernet ports (1GbE), 4 USB ports and HDMI, and can sit on a desk or mount on a wall (VESA or flat). They're rated to run from -20 °C to 70 °C. So the choice comes down to how much processing power and memory you need. The W versions add built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, which may help where running cable is hard. doc.engeni... +5doc.engenius.ai ↗“thermal.cooling=Fanless”doc.engenius.ai ↗“io.ethernet_ports=2”doc.engenius.ai ↗“io.max_ethernet_speed=1GbE”doc.engenius.ai ↗“Desktop, VESA wall mount, Flat wall mount”doc.engenius.ai ↗“thermal.max_operating_temp_c=70 °C, thermal.min_operating_temp_c=-20 °C”doc.engenius.ai ↗“the W variant adds onboard Wi-Fi/Bluetooth”
I couldn't find how many camera streams each model can handle at once, so I can't say how many cameras one box would cover in your building.
