Fanless Orin Nano box PCs with a SIM slot and the most USB ports

Asked as: “I want a fanless Orin Nano box with a SIM slot for a remote kiosk. Which one has the most USB ports?”

Answered by the Rapidflare agent

The Advantech MIC-713-ON has the most USB ports: 7. I found 38 fanless Orin Nano box PCs with a SIM slot, and 36 of them list a USB count. Two don't, so I can't say how they compare.

  • Takes the Jetson Orin Nano 8GB or 4GB module. It's rated 40 TOPS (INT8 sparse) in default mode and 67 TOPS in Super mode. advantech...advantech.com ↗“performance.max_ai_tops_super=67 TOPS”
  • Runs on 9–36 V input and is built for desktop mounting. advantech... +1advantech.com ↗“power.power_input=9-36 V”advantech.com ↗“mechanical.mounting_type=Desktop”
  • Before you buy: the rated operating range is -10 to 60 °C, but only if there is airflow. It also depends on the power mode and on what peripherals are installed. That matters if the box will sit inside a closed kiosk. advantech...advantech.com ↗“Requires airflow, Depends on power mode, Depends on installed peripherals”
  • The datasheet will show what kinds of USB ports make up the 7. I can't tell from what I have whether any are debug or OTG connectors.

On the two MIC-712 models, only 4 of the 6 ports are USB 3.2. The rest are the debug and OTG connectors.

I only included models listed as fully fanless. Boxes listed as "Fan/Fanless" aren't in this ranking.
