AVerMedia D131SON – Jetson Orin Nano 8GB for Edge AI
Build robotics, smart camera and edge AI applications on the AVerMedia D131SON Engineering Kit. It combines the NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano 8GB module with AVerMedia’s compact D131S carrier board, a 256 GB NVMe SSD and a heat sink with fan. Super Mode support provides up to 67 TOPS, while CAN FD, HDMI, TPM 2.0 and 12–24 V DC input support development toward deployment.
Why choose the D131SON
- Storage and cooling pre-installed: a 256 GB NVMe SSD and heat sink with fan are included.
- Jetson Orin Nano performance: up to 67 TOPS, a 1024-core NVIDIA Ampere GPU, a 6-core Arm Cortex-A78AE CPU and 8 GB LPDDR5.
- Dual-camera vision: two 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 inputs, four USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A ports and HDMI output up to 4K at 30 Hz with Orin Nano.
- System integration: CAN 2.0 FD, TPM 2.0 and a 12–24 V DC input range.
- Modular expansion: optional PoE, 5G, DisplayPort and out-of-band management daughter boards, plus a 40-pin expansion header. Wireless modules and optional boards are not included.
- Jetson software foundation: NVIDIA JetPack-based AVerMedia BSP. Check BSP, driver and peripheral compatibility when moving applications from another Jetson platform.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the D131SON as powerful as the Jetson Orin Nano Super Developer Kit?
Both platforms use Jetson Orin Nano 8GB with Super Mode support and offer up to 67 TOPS. Actual application performance depends on the software, power mode, cooling and workload.
Can I use software developed for Jetson Orin Nano on the D131SON?
The D131SON uses an NVIDIA JetPack-based AVerMedia BSP on Jetson Orin Nano. Many Jetson applications and models can be adapted, but check JetPack/BSP versions, camera drivers and peripheral compatibility for your project.
Does the D131SON include the Jetson Orin Nano module and storage?
Yes. The D131SON Engineering Kit ships with the D131S carrier board, the Jetson Orin Nano 8GB module, a 256 GB NVMe SSD and a heat sink with fan pre-installed.
Which one should I choose?
Choose the Developer Kit if you want NVIDIA's reference platform for learning, evaluation and early prototyping. Choose the D131SON if you need CAN FD, storage pre-installed, HDMI output, wide-range power and TPM 2.0 — or if you want to prototype and deploy on the same hardware.
Can I scale up to Jetson Orin NX later?
Yes. The D131S carrier board also supports Jetson Orin NX modules, so you can move to higher AI performance on the same board design.
Do you offer volume or custom OEM pricing?
Yes. Contact us for volume OEM pricing, evaluation units or a custom form-factor consultation.
