Deployment / Use Cases
This barebone mini PC excels in space-constrained environments where traditional desktop systems cannot fit. Its compact dimensions make it ideal for mounting behind monitors in digital signage applications, fitting into small office workstations, or deploying in retail kiosk configurations.
The system's balance of processing power, memory capacity, and connectivity options supports a range of business applications. Common deployment scenarios include thin client replacements, point-of-sale systems, conference room computers, light CAD workstations, and general office productivity stations where desk space is at a premium.
Digital Signage & Kiosk
The compact form factor and multiple display outputs make this system well-suited for digital signage deployments, interactive kiosks, and information display applications in retail, hospitality, or corporate environments.
Space-Optimized Workstation
For offices with limited desk space or clean-desk policies, the PN64 provides full computing capability in a package that can be mounted out of sight while maintaining accessibility for maintenance and upgrades.
Physical Profile
Measuring just 4.72 inches wide by 5.12 inches deep by 2.28 inches high, the PN64 occupies minimal space while delivering substantial computing capability. The Eco Black finish provides a professional appearance suitable for business environments, and the 1.65-pound weight makes the system easily portable for temporary deployments or service rotations.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 2.28" (58 mm), 4.72" (120 mm), 5.12" (130 mm), 1.65 lb (750 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.

User Manual
FAQ
What components do I need to add to make this barebone system operational?
To complete this barebone system, you will need to install compatible DDR5 memory modules (the system supports up to 64GB across two slots), at least one storage device (M.2 NVMe or 2.5-inch SATA drive), and an operating system such as Windows or Linux. The system does not include these components, allowing you to customize the exact specifications for your specific needs.
What type of memory does this system support?
The PN64 barebone system supports DDR5 SDRAM memory operating at DDR5-4800 speeds (PC5-38400). It features two memory slots with a maximum supported capacity of 64GB total. This represents current-generation memory technology that provides improved bandwidth and power efficiency compared to previous DDR4 implementations.
What networking capabilities does this mini PC include?
This system provides comprehensive networking options including a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port for high-speed wired connections, WiFi 6 (802.11ax) wireless networking for flexible placement without cabling, and Bluetooth connectivity for peripheral devices. The 2.5GbE capability offers 2.5 times the bandwidth of standard Gigabit Ethernet for faster file transfers and network access.
How many displays can this system support simultaneously?
The PN64 supports multiple display configurations through its HDMI output, DisplayPort capability, and USB Type-C port with DisplayPort 1.4 functionality. The exact number of simultaneous displays depends on the specific configuration and resolution requirements, but the system is designed to support at least two displays for extended desktop or mirrored presentation scenarios.
What storage options are available in this barebone system?
Storage expansion is provided through one M.2 interface supporting NVMe PCIe storage devices and one SATA interface for 2.5-inch drives. The system includes both Serial ATA/600 and NVMe controllers, allowing you to choose between high-speed NVMe storage for performance-critical applications or more cost-effective SATA storage for capacity-oriented deployments.
Is this system suitable for mounting behind monitors or in confined spaces?
Yes, the compact dimensions of 4.72" wide x 5.12" deep x 2.28" high make this system ideal for space-constrained deployments. The small footprint and minimal depth allow for mounting behind monitors using VESA-compatible brackets, installation in kiosk enclosures, or placement in areas where traditional desktop systems would not fit while maintaining full computing capability.
