In 2020, 5G infrastructure went live commercially around the world, thanks to 5G wireless technology, which is meant to deliver high-speed Internet, massive bandwidth, and wide connectivity. AIoT was viewed by many industries as the last piece of the 5G puzzle. In order to successfully deploy 5G networks, performance enhancements with high speed and reliability are essential. With AEWIN new released SCB-6913 industrial platform which has the feature sets of stability, expandability, and the ability to be combine with our customization services, we are ready to assist system operators in developing the next generation of high-performance 5G network communications platforms.

Since the 4G era, networking has been a key function for many different types of equipment, yet the limitations of 4G bandwidth and Internet speeds have relegated the 4G communication standard to be used mainly in the design of consumer equipment. The era of smart technologies has rapidly increased the networking requirements of non-consumable equipment, 5G was designed to cater to industrial and commercial applications. Today, the commercialized 5G makes it possible to serve applications such as VR/AR entertainment, smart healthcare, smart factories, and autonomous vehicles. Aside from smart applications, enterprise communications and network infrastructure have also been migrating from its traditional MPLS and xDSL to 5G networks. The demand of the SD-WAN equipment supporting 5G has grown to address this trend.

SCB-6913 is the solution to response to the market demand that designed specifically to operate reliably in the harsh environment and/or harsh conditions. SCB-6913 utilizes a fanless design and sealed case that is highly dust-resistant, water resistant, and malfunction-resistant, which ensures availability. Though some might believe that fanless designs result in poor cooling, AEWIN's advanced cooling design ensures that there is no negative impact to equipment performance. In terms of communication design, the SCB-6913 has 3 built-in M.2 interface sockets allowing connections to two 5G modules and one Wi-Fi module. The 5G modules increase Internet bandwidth and support up to 4 SIM cards, allowing systems to simultaneously support different operators.

From an application perspective, the SCB-6913 is suitable for use in systems with strict requirements regarding stability and network reliability, especially in harsh, dusty environments such as factories or in-vehicle systems. The fanless design allows systems to operate with higher stability, reduces the time and cost of repairs, and creates a superior office environment by eliminating noisy fans. Also, the large number of 5G interfaces in the SCB-6913 enhances backup mechanisms and can be applied in logistics vehicles, trains, high-speed rail, and other systems that require cross-regional operation to ensure there is no impact to communication quality. The Wi-Fi module allows local IoT devices to transfer data via 5G to backend control centers to instantly handle various unexpected situations.

In addition to advanced networking functionality, AEWIN also provides comprehensive design services that assist clients with applying the SCB-6913 optimally in the rapid development of high-performance next generation network platforms. AEWIN has stated that current device operators lack of sufficient information when selecting models during the pre-development phase, which causes them to take on risks in the development process. If the performance of a product does not meet expectations, the result is either delaying and readjusting development schedules or shipping products with poor performance. Off the shelf (OTS) products offered by AEWIN allow device operators to conduct tests when selecting models and obtain accurate data before moving onto the development phase to ensure products are launched on schedule with the expected quality. Device operators can also utilize AEWIN's OTS design and customization services to increase product features. Current OEM/ODM server suppliers offer design services, but orders must achieve a minimum threshold; in contrast, AEWIN provides customization services even at low product volumes. Special designs can be applied to firmware, hardware, and organizations to better meet market demands.

Enterprises are increasingly reliant on the Internet and therefore the quality of network equipment has a major impact on competitiveness. The SCB-6913's features such as fanless design and numerous network interfaces allows operators to build stable, reliable network communications platforms, thereby helping them gain a foothold in the 5G era and capitalize on massive smart business opportunities.
