Aetina boxes rated down to -40°C for cold-storage robots

Asked as: “Any Aetina box that's rated down to -40°C? Cold-storage warehouse robots.”

Answered by the Rapidflare agent

I could not find any Aetina box or embedded system rated down to −40°C. In the Jetson partner catalog, Aetina's full-system products bottom out at −25°C for their current Orin-based systems, and −20°C for their older AGX Xavier units. Nothing from Aetina goes lower than that.

Specific verified examples:

So for a typical −30°C freezer environment, none of these Aetina units meets the rating on paper.

A couple of things I could not determine from the catalog:

  • Whether Aetina offers any −40°C-rated variant outside the Jetson partner catalog I searched — the catalog is the authority I checked, and it lists nothing colder than −25°C for Aetina. If you want, Aetina's product pages (linked in each catalog entry, e.g. the AIB-MX12/22 datasheet) or an Aetina representative could confirm whether a wider-temperature SKU exists.
  • Whether an enclosure/heating solution could extend a −25°C-rated Aetina unit to your environment — that's an engineering question outside the catalog specs.

The wider Jetson partner catalog does contain edge AI box PCs from other NVIDIA partners rated to −40°C, which would fit cold-storage robots better if you're not locked to Aetina. You can tell me how you'd like to proceed with the options below, and I can pull those up.
