-text+Enable the router to run its own KI modules locally, directly on the router, without having to use a hyperscaler. Your own data can be used to train the AI modules because it is not shared with third parties. The entire value chain remains under your control and can be flexibly developed further. Applications include intelligent energy management systems, dynamic traffic control systems, and production management. The KI modules can be trained and fine-tuned for their core tasks to achieve optimal results.

 The NB2800's circuit board features a DC/DC converter that supplies 3.3 volts to the two Mini-PCIe slots. The maximum output current is 6 amps. A maximum of 12 watts is available for the Mini-PCIe modules. The DX-M1 chip has a maximum power consumption of less than 5 watts. The NB2800's circuit board features a DC/DC converter that supplies 3.3 volts to the two Mini-PCIe slots.

 +The device class of the module was correctly identified as “Class 1200” (processing accelerator), i.e., an NPU or AI accelerator
