Vision
Camera power without injectors
AD743AW puts PoE on LAN1/2 across three Intel i226-V 2.5G ports, so compact cameras draw power from the board, not an injector stack.

Motherboards that sit on the line
On a line, cabinets run warm, the rail is often 24V, and the serial devices stay in service for years. These boards carry the PoE, COM and CAN that a cell needs, with DC 9–36V on the wide-input models.

What the line asks for
What the application demands
Three requirements decide the board before CPU class does. Each one maps to a field on the model datasheet.
Traceability
Six serial channels
AD743AW, TOP600B and RP7003AW carry six COM ports, with RS232/RS485 selectable on COM1/2. Scanners, printers and station PCs share one board.
Motion
CAN and a 24V rail
RP7003AW pairs two CAN buses with DC 9–36V input. AD743AW accepts the same rail, while TOP600B runs on DC 12–19V.
Recommended boards
Three boards for the typical cell.
Each card lists what the datasheet states. The why line maps the board to the cell, not to a category.
Alder Lake-N
AD743AW
Why: PoE on LAN1/2 powers vision cameras; DC 9–36V and −20/+60°C match line cabinets.

Alder / Raptor · 28W
TOP600B
Why: six COM plus LPT and PS/2 serve MES stations; a 0–255 s watchdog restarts a hung cell.

Core 12th / 13th
RP7003AW
Why: two CAN buses cover motion; PCIe 5.0 M.2 leaves headroom for analysis at the cell.

Need a different I/O map?
Once the sample is approved, BIOS defaults, pinout, heatsink and labels can change on the same qualified board.

|---|---|---|---|
| AD743AW | 6× COM · RS485/RS422 on COM1/2 | DC 9–36V | PoE LAN1/2 feeds cameras; wide input matches 24V rails. |
| TOP600B | 6× COM · RS485 on COM1/2 | DC 12–19V | LPT/PS/2 plus a watchdog for MES stations; use a converter on 24V. |
| RP7003AW | 6× COM · BIOS-select RS485 | DC 9–36V | 2× CAN for motion; PCIe 5.0 M.2 for analysis at the cell. |

Two questions that come up before the sample request.
AD743AW puts PoE on LAN1/2 across three Intel i226-V 2.5G ports, so compact cameras draw power from the board instead of a separate injector stack.
