Jetson TX2 carrier boards with the most Ethernet ports

Asked as: “Legacy TX2 network appliance: which Jetson TX2 carrier board has the most Ethernet ports?”

Answered by the Rapidflare agent

The Jetson TX2 carrier board with the most Ethernet ports is the Connect Tech Cogswell (ASG007), with 5 Ethernet ports — the highest count among the 22 TX2-compatible carrier boards I ranked. All 22 had a listed Ethernet port value, so this is the maximum, not just the best of a partial list.

Cogswell Carrier for Jetson TX2/TX2i (ASG007) — Connect Tech

  • 5x Gigabit Ethernet ports, with 4x PoE (802.3af) or 2x PoE+ (802.3at) PSE ports running from a single +12V input — the carrier generates its own PoE power, so no external 48V supply is needed connecttec...connecttech.com ↗“5x Gigabit Ethernet with 4x PoE”
  • Also provides HDMI, USB 3.0/2.0/OTG, 2x RS-232, CAN 2.0b, miniPCIe and mSATA, rated -40 to +85 °C connecttec...connecttech.com ↗“HDMI, USB 3.0/2.0/OTG, 2x RS-232, CAN 2.0b, miniPCIe and mSATA, -40 to +85 °C”
  • Important for a legacy deployment: its lifecycle status in the catalog is End-of-life, and its JetPack support tops out at 4.6.5 connecttec...connecttech.com ↗“identity.lifecycle_status=EOL”
