VTC 1921- The Enhanced, Energy-Efficient IP67 Vehicle Computer

Industrial computers in transportation have grown increasingly powerful and versatile to meet diverse application needs. Originally serving as IoT gateways, these systems have evolved to integrate a wide array of features, capable of withstanding the rigorous, ever-shifting conditions of real-world environments like fleet management, construction, smart agriculture, AI-powered surveillance, and traffic monitoring.

Building on the success of its predecessor, the VTC 1911, NEXCOM’s new VTC 1921 pushes the envelope further. It delivers expanded connectivity, greater environmental resilience, and enhanced performance — an all-in-one platform that goes beyond communication and into full-scale edge intelligence.

Comprehensive, intelligent I/O interfaces

The VTC 1921 offers a broad spectrum of I/O interfaces to meet diverse application requirements. Equipped with isolated CAN FD and CAN 2.0B protocols, it supports advanced vehicle diagnostics and driver behavior analytics. An HDMI^® port delivers crystal-clear 4K video output, while M12 and DB15 connectors support USB 3.2, RS-232/RS-485, audio I/O, and digital inputs/outputs.

At its core is a powerful u-blox NEO-M9N GPS module supporting multiple GNSS constellations (GPS, Glonass, Galileo, Beidou, QZSS), ensuring exceptional location accuracy even in challenging conditions. For applications requiring dead reckoning, the NEO-M9V is also available upon request.

Seamless integration with wireless and edge devices

Designed as a next-gen telematics gateway, the VTC 1921 offers multiple M.2 and Mini PCIe slots to accommodate WLAN, WWAN, and 5G/LTE modules. Its four external SIM slots maximize uptime through software-defined failover and bandwidth aggregation.

The VTC 1921-IP comes equipped with two 2.5GbE LAN ports for ultra-fast data transfer, while the VTC 1921-C2IP combines one LAN with two PoE ports (M12 X-coded) to power and connect cameras and edge sensors – ideal for mobile surveillance and AI-enabled edge computing.

Rugged yet refined

Engineered to MIL-STD-810H and EN 45545-2 standards, the VTC 1921 features a fanless, lightweight chassis that fits easily into space-constrained vehicles while withstanding vibration, shock – and even fire. Its robust and IP67-rated design also resists water and dust, delivering consistent performance in even the harshest mobile and outdoor environments.
