EvoTRAC G103 – IP67 In-Vehicle Rugged Cellular Gateway by Kontron

The Kontron EvoTRAC G103 is a purpose-built rugged in-vehicle computing and communications gateway designed to survive the full spectrum of environmental stresses encountered in on-road and off-road vehicle deployments. The IP67-sealed, natural convection cooled enclosure houses a Kontron Type 6 COM Express module carrying an Intel Atom E3845 quad-core processor at 1.91GHz, 4GB DRAM, and 64GB eMMC storage, with optional 2.5-inch SSD expansion for additional capacity. The design is built around a ruggedised carrier board that integrates all the I/O interfaces needed for a vehicle gateway in a single compact unit: two Gigabit Ethernet ports via M12 X-coded female connectors, two CANbus 2.0 A/B interfaces per ISO 11898-2 at speeds up to 1Mbps via M12 A-coded connectors, and two USB 2.0 ports with up to 1.5A charging capability. Wireless connectivity combines a 4G LTE+ cellular modem with GPS and dual SIM slot — using two isolated TNC RF connectors for main and diversity or GPS antenna — with an integrated 802.11ac/bgn Wi-Fi access point. The wide-range 9 to 36VDC vehicle power input includes surge protection, filtering, and an ignition switch signal input via M8 connector for controlled power-on and shutdown sequencing. The EvoTRAC G103 has been tested across -40 to +80°C operating temperature, with validated vibration to 8.21 GRMS power spectrum density from 5Hz to 2000Hz and shock to 40g at 11ms sawtooth, and meets CISPR25 emissions and ISO 11452-2 susceptibility requirements. Linux Ubuntu 16.04 LTS is pre-installed, with Windows OS also supported. Available from Recab, your Nordic partner for Kontron vehicle computing solutions.
