Use Cases and Applications
Aero Mini PCs suit office work, browsing, documents, video calls and light multitasking. They fit behind a monitor or on a desk.
Industrial PCs suit machine control, data logging, digital signage, kiosks, point-of-sale and edge computing. The IPC5 has dual LAN ports for connecting to separate networks. Dual Band WiFi models suit wireless deployments. Ubuntu Linux models suit developers and embedded projects.
The Treo Mini PC with the Celeron N5095A suits basic tasks, digital displays and light-duty terminals.
The Thinvent range does not include Intel Core i9 or Xeon processors. For higher core counts, choose the 12-core Core i5-1240P in the IPC5.
