The Forge carrier board is made by Connect Tech — it's their rugged carrier board for the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin 32GB/64GB modules. connecttec...connecttech.com ↗“Connect Tech Forge rugged carrier board for NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin 32GB or 64GB”
Connect Tech currently has two carrier boards in the catalog that support the Jetson Thor family:

The Gauntlet is the direct Thor-generation counterpart to the Forge — a rugged carrier with the same -40 °C to 85 °C operating range and 10 DIO channels. The Rogue-T5 is a smaller board (92 × 108 mm, 136 g) and is also sold as integrated assemblies with a Jetson T5000 module already installed. connecttec... +2connecttech.com ↗“Connect Tech rugged carrier board for NVIDIA Jetson Thor T5000”connecttech.com ↗“2x 10GBASE-T plus 1x 2.5GBASE-T Ethernet and 4x CAN 2.0b”connecttech.com ↗“Also sold as integrated assemblies with a Jetson T5000 module”
Note that the Forge itself supports only the AGX Orin family (AGX Orin and AGX Orin Industrial) — if you're moving to Jetson Thor, one of the two boards above would be the Connect Tech option. connecttec...connecttech.com ↗“compatibility.supported_jetson_families=Jetson AGX Orin, Jetson AGX Orin Industrial”
