Notes relevant to a UAV payload:
- The MILBOARD-AGX supports the -40 to 85 °C range, operates fan or fanless, and carries a MIL-STD certification listing — useful traits for an airborne payload environment. forecr.io +1forecr.io ↗“thermal.max_operating_temp_c=85 °C, thermal.min_operating_temp_c=-40 °C”forecr.io ↗“MIL-STD (unspecified)”
- If you need 10GbE networking (common for high-bandwidth sensor downlinks), the Rogue-RX XP (147 g) offers 2x 10GBASE-T along with Gen4 NVMe M.2 slots. connecttec...connecttech.com ↗“2x 10GBASE-T, 2x NVMe Gen4 M.2”
- The D315 (5G) and D315-2 (189 g each) add cellular/5G connectivity, which may matter if the payload needs an independent comms link. profession... +1professional.avermedia.com ↗“connectivity.cellular=5G”professional.avermedia.com ↗“connectivity.cellular=5G”
One caveat: of the 19 AGX Orin Industrial-compatible carrier boards I found, 12 do not have a published weight in the catalog, so they are not ranked above. It is possible one of those is lighter than the MILBOARD-AGX, but I could not verify their weights. If weight is the deciding factor for your payload budget, I'd suggest confirming directly with the manufacturers of the unranked boards (e.g., Connect Tech Forge/Rogue/Rogue-RX, Diamond Systems Osbourne variants, Leetop A605_I/A680_I, YUAN VPP6N0/PIX6N0, Forecr DSBOARD-AGXS, AVerMedia D317) before committing.
