Mounting on a plate or wall
Mounting flanges for installation in a control cabinet. The DIN rail bracket is an optional accessory and must be ordered separately.
To install the unit, ensure there is sufficient space around the heat sink. The platform’s operating temperature range is −20 to +60 °C, provided a suitable SSD is used and adequate airflow is ensured; we will confirm the specific range for a given configuration based on its components.
Mini PCIe and external SIM slot
Inside, there is one full-size Mini PCIe slot with a SIM card holder for a suitable communications module. The SIM card is accessible from the outside of the case.

SIM card accessible from the outside
For a mobile connection, you will need a compatible 3G/4G modem, an antenna, a SIM card and the relevant system settings. Simply inserting the SIM card will not establish a connection.
Mini PCIe can also be used for a compatible Wi-Fi module. A modem, Wi-Fi module, antennas and other accessories are not automatically included with the basic PC. We will confirm their installation in the quotation.

Power input and serial ports on the terminals. Check the wiring and polarity in the user manual before connecting.
- Processor TDP: 12 WThis figure relates to the Intel N97 processor. It does not represent the maximum power consumption of the entire system.
- Maximum power consumption of the platform: 90 WSelect the power supply based on the actual configuration, the connected peripherals and the required reserve capacity.
- Watchdog and TPM 2.0The watchdog can be programmed within a range of 1-255 levels. TPM 2.0 and other options are configured in the BIOS; their use depends on the system and application.
Before placing an order
Do you supply the computer without RAM, an SSD or an operating system?
Yes. With the configurator option, the RAM, SSD and operating system can be selected individually. We can supply the PC without these components or with your chosen combination. The Intel N97 processor remains part of the computer.
Do all models come with 8 GB of RAM and a 128 GB SSD?
No. The APC-5712-8G-SSD128G model has that configuration. The APC-5712-16G-SSD256G model has 16 GB of RAM and a 256 GB SSD. For the base APC-5712 model, the RAM, SSD and OS are selected separately.
What RAM and SSD should I choose?
The computer has one SO-DIMM slot for DDR4-3200 and one M.2 M-Key slot for a 2242-format SATA SSD. In the configurator, we offer 8 or 16 GB of RAM and a 128 GB or 256 GB SSD. We will check the higher RAM capacity for the specific revision. For the M.2 slot, select the SATA interface; the shape of the connector alone does not guarantee compatibility.
Is the DIN rail mount included in the pack?
The DIN rail mount is an optional accessory and must be ordered separately. The computer has flanges for mounting on a panel or wall. Please specify the required mounting method in your enquiry.
Is it enough to insert a SIM card to connect via 4G?
That’s not enough. You’ll need a compatible modem in the Mini PCIe slot, an antenna, a SIM card and the operating system settings. Neither the modem nor the antenna are automatically included in the basic configuration.
Which operating system should I order?
We will supply the computer either without an operating system or with a supported system for your application. The platform supports Windows 10, Windows 11 and Ubuntu. We will confirm the specific edition, licence and drivers for the configuration you have ordered; application software and licences are not automatically included with the PC.
Can the computer start up automatically once the power is restored?
The BIOS provides settings for behaviour after power is restored and for Wake on LAN. We will confirm the required behaviour, settings and compatibility with your application when preparing the system.
Can the warranty be extended?
The standard warranty period is 2 years. A 1-year extension is available for an additional charge of 10 per cent of the price, and a 2-year extension for 20 per cent of the price. We will confirm the chosen warranty period, price and terms in our quotation.
Why order from FOXON?
We can help you choose an ESTONE industrial computer and prepare a configuration tailored to your application.
