BCM Advanced Research has recently introduced two new fanless open-frame panel PCs powered by an Intel Processor N50 CPU – the OFT07W-ADLN (7-inch) and OFT10W-ADLN (10-inch) – which are low-cost all-in-one embedded computers designed for tablet-like usability.
Both modules feature 8GB LPDDR5 memory, 64GB eMMC storage, and an M.2 E-key slot for Wi-Fi/Bluetooth connectivity. These panel PCs come with PCAP touchscreens (800×1280 for 7-inch and 1200×1920 for 10-inch) with various connectivity options including USB, HDMI 2.0a, RS-232/485, and Gigabit Ethernet. With 12-24V DC input supply, fanless operation, and a durable steel frame, these compact open-frame panel PCs are meant for space-constrained applications like HMIs, self-service kiosks, gaming consoles, medical terminals, smart vending machines, digital signage, and more.

After looking at the specifications it’s clear that the main difference between the two displayed are in size, resolution, and physical dimensions. Other than that, the features and capabilities are almost identical.
The OFT07W-ADLN and OFT10W-ADLN both support Windows 10/11 and Ubuntu 22.04 operating systems. They come with drivers for the BL-M8852BP4 wireless module (Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.0), Realtek RTL811H-CG Gigabit Ethernet, and Realtek HD Audio for full functionality.
Previously we have written about AAEON ACP-2106 and ACP-2076 which are very similar to this one, but the AAEON panel PCs feature a more powerful N97 quad-core Alder Lake-N processor, faster Ethernet, and M.2 SSD storage options. We have also written about EDATEC ED-HMI2320-156C, a Raspberry Pi CM4 power panel PC with a 15.6-inch capacitive touchscreen display and a metal enclosure. There is also the EDATEC ED-HMI2120-101C which is another Raspberry Pi CM4-based industrial panel PC with a 10.1-inch capacitive touchscreen display and various connectivity options including 4G LTE, RS232 and RS485, M.2 NVMe SSD.
The company does not mention any pricing information about the OFT07W-ADLN and OFT10W-ADLN fanless Intel N50 open-frame panel PCs. You can find more information on their products page and the press release.
