T1M

The smallest Quadra VPU. The T1M is sold to OEMs and design-in partners, not racked in a datacenter. It is the silicon a device maker chooses when their product needs real-time video processing but only has an M.2 slot to give.

Where T1M Fits

  • M.2 M-key slot, the same slot a server or appliance uses for an NVMe SSD
  • One Codensity G5 chip
  • Available to OEMs as a board-level component, not as a retail or datacenter SKU

How it Deploys

  • The OEM integrates T1M into their own product
  • Drops into host M.2 slot
  • No PCIe card, no rise
  • Same FFmpeg, GStreamer, and libxcoder software path as the rest of the line, so the device maker reuses standard video tooling instead of writing to a proprietary SDK.

Use Cases

  • Edge appliances
  • Cloud PCs and VDI hosts
  • Digital signage controllers
  • Set-top boxes
  • Embedded video gateways
  • Any OEM product where the chassis has M.2 but no PCIe slot, and real VPU is required on the bill of materials.
