Intel® NUC for Edge Compute

Intel® NUC Pro, Essential, and Rugged give you edge compute solutions with full-size PC power in a small form factor.

What is Edge Compute?

Edge computing is a growing industry initiative to bring compute, storage, and connectivity capabilities closer to the user. This leads to lower latency, with a higher, more efficient use of bandwidth and better security capabilities.

Why Use an Intel® NUC as Your Edge Compute Device?

  • Intel® NUC Pro, Essential and Rugged pack the power of the latest-generation, full-size desktop PCs into a form factor small enough to hold in your hand.
  • As edge computing devices, they can support a variety of uses including kiosks, multiple-display walls, meeting rooms, telehealth, robotics, and more.
  • Intel® NUC Mini PCs, are engineered, built, and backed by Intel for 24/7 commercial use.
  • With our three-year product life cycle and three-year warranty, your edge solution is on a solid foundation.

Stand-alone Digital Signage

Intel® NUC Pro, Essential, and Rugged bring commercial-grade reliability and performance to your digital signage applications. You can stream 4K video to multiple displays, digitize your menu boards and lobby signs, and support your other visual solutions needs.

And, if you need to support interactive screens or sales transactions in the future, Intel® NUC hardware gives you the power you need for tomorrow, today.

Video Walls and Projection Maps

Ensure a strong, flexible foundation for multiscreen, high-impact installations. A single Intel® NUC Pro Mini PC has multiple 4K video channel outputs through HDMI and Thunderbolt™ technology. Just one device can drive multiple displays as a unified monitor or feed each screen a different stream.

Kiosks for Wayfinding and Self-Service

Kiosks demand more than a simple digital signage player. Today’s self-service kiosks let people check in at hotels, check inventory across stores, and find directions. This requires more processing power for interactive touchscreens and imaging. Intel® NUC deliver this performance in a range of form factors that streamline design and manufacturing.

Intel® NUC Pro for Enhanced Features

Make sure you’re getting an enhanced feature set for digital signage by choosing , an Intel® NUC Pro Mini PC, kit, or board. They are ideal for digital signage media players, digital signage PCs, and embedded PCs for kiosks and smart signage.

Whether you need a single, stand-alone media player or an engine to drive a network of self-checkout kiosks, there is an Intel® NUC Pro to match your specs.

The Intel vPro® Platform, Built for Business

Intel® NUC Mini PCs, kits, and boards built on the Intel vPro® Platform deliver business-class performance, manageability, built-in security features, and stability. This platform helps lower costs by simplifying IT administration and increasing uptime.

The Intel® vPro® Platform includes powerful, hardware-based capabilities for remote management. This means IT administrators can update, manage, and troubleshoot entire networks of digital signage devices remotely, saving the trip of a service technician.

Built-in Display Emulation

Intel® NUC Pro offers built-in display emulation with virtual displays and persistent display mode. With virtual displays, IT administrators can log into a digital signage PC without interrupting the content playing on the sign. System maintenance, software updates, and operating system tasks all happen in the background and out of sight. Persistent display mode retains the display formatting information during temporary disconnects, preventing unexpected changes to your signage content.

Multi 4K Video Displays

Intel® NUC Pro offers dual HDMI ports and Thunderbolt™ connectivity. A single mini PC can drive multiple 4K displays , each with different content.

Thanks to its small form factor, an Intel® NUC Pro Mini PC can mount on the back of signage or inside a kiosk.

Robust Connectivity

Get internet connectivity and more. Intel® NUC Pro Mini PCs squeeze all the ports and wireless connections you would expect from a desktop PC—USB, HDMI, Thunderbolt™ technology, 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet, Wi-Fi—into the smallest space we can engineer.

What is a NUC?

It's more than a 4x4 mini PC; it's a wide portfolio of devices, kits, and elements that give you the ability to create the exact system you need.
