The system provides Fast Ethernet through a single RJ45 port for wired networking. Front-facing connectivity includes two USB ports and two audio jacks. Video output is handled by integrated Intel HD Graphics 530, which drives displays via DisplayPort and HDMI. Wireless networking is supported through the included Wi-Fi adapter.

Pre-Purchase Setup Checks

Verify that your monitors accept DisplayPort or HDMI input to match the available video outputs. Ensure you have a free mains socket for the supplied power cables. The 128GB SSD capacity suits light workloads but may require external storage for larger media libraries. Confirm that the mini PC form factor fits your intended desk or mounting location.
