In modern warehousing, field service, and smart manufacturing, frontline teams require hardware that balances low power consumption with robust computing performance. Traditional consumer devices frequently fail under the stress of wide temperature shifts, dust intrusion, and continuous daily use.
To bridge the gap between energy efficiency and industrial reliability, the N5100 rugged terminal series delivers a flexible lineup of fanless computing solutions tailored for demanding enterprise workflows.
Powered by the Intel® 11th Gen Jasper Lake N5100 processor (quad-core, four-thread, with a burst frequency up to 2.8 GHz and a low thermal design power of just 6W), this series provides reliable processing capability without requiring active cooling fans. The lineup spans across multiple form factors to match specific operational requirements:
Rugged Handhelds & Tablets: Built for mobile data collection, inventory scanning, and outdoor inspection.
Industrial Panel PCs: Designed for fixed-station monitoring, MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems), and SCADA control panels.
Vehicle-Mounted Displays: Engineered for forklifts, fleet logistics, and material handling equipment.

| Operating System | Windows 11 / Windows 10 | Windows 11 / Windows 10 | Windows 11 / Windows 10 |
| Front Panel Protection | IP65 dust-tight and water-resistant | Slim commercial profile | ATEX-certified hazardous zone protection |
| Wireless Connectivity | Dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, Built-in 4G | Dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0 | Dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, 4G |
The integration of the Intel® Jasper Lake N5100 processor allows enterprise facilities to maintain full Windows compatibility (Windows 11/10) while minimizing energy draw. The 6W TDP fanless architecture ensures silent, reliable operation, preventing dust and debris from entering the internal components through cooling vents.
To connect with legacy machinery and external automation equipment, the N5100 series integrates a robust selection of ports:
Wired Connectivity: RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet and USB 3.0 ports.
Legacy Support: Serial COM ports and customizable aviation or CAN ports.
Data Capture: Optional modules for 2D barcode scanning and NFC data collection.
Engineered to withstand harsh working conditions, standard models in the lineup feature IP65 dust and water resistance, compliance with MIL-STD-810G/810H drop and vibration standards, and reliable operation across a wide temperature range of -20°C to 60°C. For specialized environments, variant configurations such as the EM-IS19J offer slim commercial profiling for retail automation, while the EM-I17J provides ATEX-certified explosion-proof safety for hazardous mining and chemical zones.
The N5100 series natively supports Windows 11 and Windows 10, making it fully compatible with standard enterprise software stacks, including enterprise resource planning (ERP) clients and manufacturing execution systems.
Yes. The standard configuration includes 8 GB RAM and 128 GB storage, with memory upgradable up to 16 GB RAM to better support multi-tasking industrial applications.
Yes. Alongside standard industrial and commercial editions (such as the EM-IS19J), the series offers specialized hazardous-location variants like the EM-I17J（EX）, which features ATEX certification for safe deployment in mines, oil and gas facilities, and chemical plants.
Field workers and vehicle operators stay connected via dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, and built-in 4G modules, ensuring real-time database synchronization and inventory updates.
