Who the EPC-30XA is for
Six serial ports without a stack of converters
Most boxes with six COM ports reach that count by stacking three dual-port converters on the DIN rail — three more power supplies, three more failure points and three times the wiring. The EPC-30XA is 337 mm wide precisely so the six DB9 ports fit on the board.
- 4× RS-232 — point-to-point links for weighing indicators, barcode readers and PLC programming ports
- 2× RS-485 — multi-drop buses such as Modbus RTU, on a separate transceiver pair
- One cable duct — all six are brought out on one side of the chassis
- No expansion card — the serial controllers are on the board, so nothing plugs in behind the panel
Wide, but still a 47.5 mm panel
The extra width costs cabinet space; the height does not. At 47.5 mm the EPC-30XA fits the same shallow enclosures as the entry model, and the same fanless 6063 aluminium enclosure carries heat away with no filter to service.
- 60,000-hour MTBF with no fan, no filter and no rotating storage
- SafeCore™ keeps the gateway alive through a power dip and restarts unattended
- BlockCore™ lets the compute board be upgraded without changing the chassis or cutout
- 12V DC standard, 9–36V wide-range optional for 24V rails

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is the EPC-30XA industrial PC?
The EPC-30XA is a fanless embedded industrial PC from CESIPC, designed for control cabinets and applications that need multiple serial connections. It measures 337 × 160 × 47.5 mm and runs Intel Celeron J1900/J6412 up to 12th Gen Core i3/i5/i7. It provides 6 serial ports, dual Intel I210 Gigabit Ethernet, HDMI + VGA dual display, and 12V DC input with an optional 9–36V DC wide-range supply.
What makes the EPC-30XA different from the EPC-10XA and EPC-20XA?
The difference is I/O density. The EPC-30XA uses a 337 × 160 × 47.5 mm chassis and provides 6 serial ports (4× RS-232 + 2× RS-485), while the EPC-10XA and EPC-20XA use a 229 × 160 mm chassis with 3 serial ports. All three share the same BlockCore™ platform, SafeCore™ power-loss protection, fanless cooling and wide-range DC input options.
What processors are available for the EPC-30XA?
Eight configurations across four families: Celeron J1900 and J6412; 10th Gen Core i3-10110U, i5-10210U and i7-10510U; and 12th Gen Core i3-1215U, i5-1235U and i7-1250U. Celeron configurations suit serial concentrators and gateways, 10th Gen Core suits general machine control, and 12th Gen Core adds Iris Xe graphics for vision and edge AI workloads.
How many serial ports does the EPC-30XA have?
Six: 4× RS-232 and 2× RS-485 on DB9 connectors, available on every configuration regardless of processor. This suits cells that connect several PLCs, sensors, meters, barcode scanners or legacy serial controllers without USB-to-serial adapters.
Does the EPC-30XA support dual displays?
Yes. Every configuration provides 1× HDMI and 1× VGA, and the two outputs can run independently for dual-display operation.
Does the EPC-30XA support wide-range DC power input?
Yes. The standard configuration takes 12V DC through a 3-pin pluggable terminal block, and 9–36V DC wide-range input is available as an option for 24V industrial power rails. AT/ATX boot modes and automatic power-on after power recovery are supported.
Is the EPC-30XA fanless?
Yes — every configuration is passively cooled through the 6063 aluminium chassis, with no fan and no moving parts. That removes the dust intake and fan replacement that fan-cooled box PCs require in workshops with metal dust, oil mist or airborne particulate.
What are the dimensions and mounting options of the EPC-30XA?
The chassis measures 337 (W) × 160 (D) × 47.5 (H) mm and weighs 2.11 kg. It supports wall mounting and VESA mounting. Because it is headless, it can be placed wherever cabinet space allows and connected to a remote display over HDMI or VGA.
What applications is the EPC-30XA suitable for?
It is designed as the control-side computer inside a control cabinet where many serial devices must be connected: industrial automation and machine control, SCADA and data acquisition, protocol conversion and PLC gateways, energy monitoring, logistics equipment, and production-line monitoring.
What is BlockCore™ and how does it benefit the EPC-30XA?
BlockCore™ is CESIPC’s modular architecture — i-Core Board, i-Function Board and i-Connect Board. On the EPC-30XA the chassis, mounting, power input and 6 serial ports stay the same across every processor tier, so a Celeron unit can be upgraded to a 12th Gen Core board without changing the enclosure or re-wiring the cabinet.
