fitlet2 FC-LAN and FC-POED Ethernet controller change

Overview

  • Due to EOL announcement of the Ethernet controller Intel I211-AT it will be replaced by Intel I210-AT. The differences between them are minor, and I210-AT includes all the features of I211-AT. Intel I210-AT will be available through 2035.

Hardware Implications

  • In FC-LAN and FC-POED FACET CARDS Intel I211-AT LAN chip will be replaced by Intel I210-AT

Software Implications

  • Intel drivers of I211-AT also support I210-AT.
  • Device ID of I210-AT is 0x1533

Mechanical Implications

  • None

fitlet2RC announced EOL

Overview

Fitlet2RC is C-LAB's fitlet2 PC with UL certification. Due to the global component shortage, we are announcing the fitlet2RC as EOL. The UL certification for fitlet2RC is based on specific hardware and components. Whilst we are still able to manufacture fitlet2 by making revision changes to accommodate the problematic components, the UL certification is not valid for these updates. For this reason we are unable to predict when (or if) we will be able to supply any new orders of fitlet2RC. It is recommended to move to fitlet2, which has the same functionality and reliability as fitlet2RC

fitlet2: WI8260 replaced by WI8265 PCN-CL19102021

Overview

  • Due to supply disruption the Intel AC8260 WiFi/BT module used to implement the ‘WI8260’ (WiFi) configuration option is no longer available. To address this issue, in October 2021 CompuLab fitlet2 will migrate to Intel AC8265.

The change affects all future order.

Hardware Implications

  • In WI8260 option, instead of Intel 8260.NGWMG.NV, will be installed: Intel 8265.NGWMG.NV

Software Implications

  • None

Mechanical Implications

  • None

fitlet2: M16E option removed

Overview

  • As of 5-Mar-2020, due to Erratum FITLET2ERR008 (https://fit-pc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=174&t=6863) and the competitive price of SATA SSD we decided to no longer offer eMMC as a sales option for fitlet2. Business customers that specifically require fitlet2 with eMMC please contact sales (sales@fit-iot.com)
