Lantronix Open-Q™ 8550CS SiP - Coming Soon

Lantronix Open-Q™ 8550CS System-in-Package (SiP) is based on the Qualcomm® QCS8550 System-on-Chip (SoC). The Open-Q 8550CS offers a premium performance level of 55 TOPs, meeting the higher AI/ML requirements for extreme edge computing, including Edge devices, Edge servers, and Edge AI boxes. These components offer low power consumption with a 4nm process, maximum heterogeneous computing, and an 8th-generation AI engine delivering 10x performance over the previous generation. The Lantronix Open-Q 8550CS SiP features enterprise-level connectivity with Wi-Fi® 7 supporting up to 5.8Gbps and best-in-class performance across compute processing, camera, AI, security, and audio.

The Open-Q 8550CS enhances video conferencing meeting experiences, automated guided vehicle pathing, smart camera image quality, and edge AI box scalability with octal-core computing capabilities and 48 AI TOPS tensor performance. The SiPs perform complex 3D rendering and computer vision tasks with a powerful Adreno 740 GPU supporting ray tracing, Open GL ES, Vulkan, and Open CL profiles.

These devices feature 4K240/8K60 video decoding and 4K120/8K30 encoding. The Open-Q 8550CS can connect edge AI boxes leveraging high-speed 2.5G and 10G Ethernet ports.
