ShenzhenMay 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Innodisk, a global leader in embedded storage and industrial memory, today announced the launch of its new 10GbE High-Speed LAN Expansion Module Series, strengthening the critical network communication infrastructure for edge AI applications. This series features a comprehensive product lineup designed to meet the growing performance demands of edge AI, equipped with advanced Intel Ethernet controllers to deliver network transmission speeds of up to 10GbE. The series offers compact form factors with both M.2 and PCIe options. By supporting DPDK, PTP, and SR-IOV technologies, it delivers high-throughput, low-latency networking performance, ensuring it can handle data-intensive workloads such as AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles), AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots), and massive data aggregation in space-constrained edge environments, enabling real-time, efficient data exchange.
Innodisk launches full series of 10GbE high-speed LAN expansion modules, empowering edge AI network communication with industry-first specifications
Unlocking Bandwidth and Resource Bottlenecks for Full-Speed Network Transmission
In edge AI architectures, LAN modules play a critical role akin to neural transmission. As AI models grow more complex and the demand for multi-channel 4K/8K image recognition surges, traditional 1GbE bandwidth risks becoming a performance bottleneck. Upgrading to 10GbE bandwidth not only addresses the time cost of deploying large-scale models but also significantly reduces latency in massive data exchanges, ensuring automated equipment can achieve millisecond-level response times. Furthermore, packet processing acceleration technologies lighten the CPU load, concentrating computing power on AI inference and optimizing system operational efficiency. This is crucial for ensuring safety and precision in AGVs or smart factories requiring real-time decision-making, allowing edge devices to transcend bandwidth limitations and unlock the full potential of next-generation AI applications.
Innodisk’s 10GbE LAN series utilizes Intel E610 / X710 Ethernet controllers to effectively overcome these challenges, supporting DPDK 25.07 / DPDK 16.11 specifications to accelerate packet processing and ensuring precise time synchronization via PTP (Precision Time Protocol). Additionally, it leverages SR-IOV (Single Root I/O Virtualization) technology to enhance resource utilization in virtualized environments, providing stable and efficient network transmission for applications such as AGV and AMR collaborative scheduling, production line defect detection, and NVR digital network surveillance.
Diverse Specifications for Accelerated Product Integration and Deployment
Industry-First Technologies for Demanding Edge Applications
Leveraging extensive system integration experience and capabilities, Innodisk has incorporated multiple industry-first designs into the 10GbE product line, pushing the boundaries of network expansion and adapting to complex and varied vertical application scenarios. For example, the EGPL-T203 model in this series is the industry’s first M.2 dual-port 10GbE LAN expansion module supporting an industrial-grade wide temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, ensuring stable operational performance in harsh environments like outdoor deployments and factory automation, laying a solid foundation for reliable network communication. Meanwhile, the EGPL-T2F1 is the industry’s first M.2 interface SFP+ LAN expansion module, supporting fiber optics and Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cables, fully meeting the transmission needs of high-speed fiber optic networks. This innovative technical specification earned it the 2026 Embedded World “Best in Show” award.
Innodisk’s 10GbE series also includes expansion modules such as the EGPL-T103, ELPL-T101, and ELPL-T201, offering flexible options to meet diverse deployment needs. As edge AI continues to evolve, high-speed and flexible network architectures have become a key capability. Innodisk’s high-performance 10GbE LAN series combines top-tier performance, compact size, and deployment flexibility, enabling customers to more easily build efficient, high-speed edge computing systems.
