TAIPEI, Taiwan, January 14, 2020 ASUS today announced the launch of Fanless Chromebox, the latest ASUS Chrome OS device that features 10th Generation Intel® processors for exceptional performance, USB-C® 3.2 Gen 1 for ultrafast connections and built-in Google Play support for a rich selection of apps for productivity, communication and more that facilitate efficient work for the growing number of businesses and employees that rely upon cloud-based workflows. A tough and versatile aluminum chassis with a fanless design enables smooth and reliable operation in harsh commercial and industrial environments.

Exceptional performance and versatile connectivity

ASUS Fanless Chromebox combines 10th Generation Intel® Core™ or Celeron® processors, up to 16 GB of DDR4-2666 memory and up to 512 GB of M.2 SSD storage for fast, smooth performance that is more energy efficient than ever before. It also comes equipped with a versatile USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C port for fast data transfers, power delivery and DisplayPort functionality. ASUS Fanless Chromebox also supports up to three 4K displays simultaneously for brilliant, sharp visuals and powerful productivity. Intel WiFi 6 connectivity delivers ultrafast network connections and USB 3.2 Type-A ports ensure quick data transfers.

Designed for diverse industrial and commercial use

ASUS Fanless Chromebox delivers powerful performance and features for smooth and reliable operation in a diverse range of industrial and commercial settings. A fanless aluminum chassis stands up to harsh operating environments, while providing silent operation and requiring less maintenance than systems with active cooling. Support for an external power-switch cable enables ASUS Fanless Chromebox to be turned on or off easily when placed in difficult-to-reach locations, and an RS232 via RJ50 interface lets users connect legacy monitors and devices. These features make ASUS Fanless Chromebox suitable for a wide range of uses, including digital signage, point-of-sale systems, intelligent vending machines, warehouse workstations and even factory production lines.

In addition to industrial and commercial use, ASUS Fanless Chromebox makes an ideal desktop-replacement system for cloud workers. With its small size, smooth performance and broad selection of apps, ASUS Fanless Chromebox fits anywhere and enables employees to get work done, whether in the office or working remotely at home.

Access to a rich selection of apps for business and cloud workers

Built-in support for Google Play on ASUS Fanless Chromebox provides users with unfettered access to a wide array of apps and content. Access to these apps enables users to easily find their favorite apps and enjoy them with the power of a mini PC, making ASUS Fanless Chromebox perfect for businesses looking for streamlined ways to enhance work efficiency, and cloud workers adapting to different working conditions, including working remotely securely, collaborating digitally and video conferencing smoothly.

Security and reliability

ASUS Fanless Chromebox is designed from the ground up with security in mind. Automatic updates ensure that it always has the latest software and security updates to stay safe from viruses, malware and other security issues. A lockable VESA mount enables ASUS Fanless Chromebox to be mounted securely in a diverse range of locations — such as on ceilings, walls or under desks or counters — to fit any business need. Additionally, an exclusive cable lock provides the ability to secure DC-in and HDMI cable connections in commercial settings.
