This is 2nd generation Intel Compute Stick, meaning it has 2Gb of memory and 2 USB slots. I use for two reasons, replacing the [[wifi0]] virtual machine that used to run the TP-Link Omada wifi controller software, and for running the weird proprietary software for my UPS. Since it is a full on x86 processor, it can run these weird binaries. It's also a fair bit faster than a raspberry pi 3 which makes it ideal for running the TP-Link Omada wifi controller which really requires at least at least 1Gb of memory. It draws ~7W of power, making it possible to run the whole thing off standard POE, as mine is. It also has a USB/Gigabit Ethernet dongle attached. |
