Industrial fanless mini PC with i5-8265U

The partaker PA-3046 is a fanless desktop computer built around an onboard Intel Core i5-8265U processor with four cores and eight threads. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 memory and a 512 GB SSD, running Windows 10 Pro with Windows 11 ready. The aluminum alloy chassis operates on a 9-36 V DC input via a phoenix connector, making it suitable for industrial automation, medical, and vehicle applications.

Suited for fixed industrial roles.

This system suits integrators who need silent, rugged operation with four Intel 1000M LAN ports, dual display via VGA and HDMI, and legacy connectivity including four COM ports with RS232/RS422/RS485 options. It is not for users who require a built-in display, battery power, discrete graphics, or memory beyond the 32 GB SODIMM limit. The single M.2 2280 slot supports SATA protocol only.

Expansion limited to SATA M.2 and Mini PCIe

The board provides one M.2 M-Key 2280 slot that accepts SATA drives and one Mini PCIe slot for Wi-Fi, 3G, or 4G modules with an embedded SIM slot. An optional GPIO header adds eight inputs and eight outputs plus two COM ports and one USB 2.0 interface. These expansion options define the storage and wireless capabilities available for the platform.

Questions about this item

What display cables do I need to use both the VGA and HDMI ports for dual monitors?

You need one VGA cable and one HDMI cable; the Intel UHD Graphics supports synchronous and asynchronous dual display on the 1 VGA and 1 HDMI ports.

Can I keep my existing RS-232 serial devices and connect them to the COM ports?

Yes, the two rear COM ports are configurable for RS232, RS422 or RS485, so legacy RS-232 equipment will work.

How can I verify the i5-8265U is reaching its 3.9 GHz turbo speed under load?

Open Task Manager in Windows 10 Pro, watch the CPU frequency graph while running a heavy task, and confirm it climbs toward 3.9 GHz.
