Rack32 ESP32 rack-mount controller with Ethernet

Copyright 2021 SuperHouse Automation Pty Ltd www.superhouse.tv

A general purpose control board for rack mount projects, compatible with the Open eXtensible Rack System.

Rack32 PCB

DIY rack-mount projects often require an Ethernet connection, a status display, power regulation, and other features that are not specific to the project.

This board fits into a rack-mount case and provides those common features so they don't have to be recreated every time.

Features:

  • ESP32 microcontroller with WiFi.
  • 10/100Mbps Ethernet.
  • Support for both DIY (12V) PoE and 48V 802.3af PoE.
  • Pluggable terminal block for optional external DC power input.
  • Automotive-grade voltage regulator for harsh electrical environments.
  • 6-way IDC "I2C-Breakout" header for linking to other boards.
  • 8-way IDC "SPI-LCD" header for connection to an LCD.
  • USB-C connector for loading firmware.
  • Auto power source selection between USB-C, PoE, and external DC.
  • I/O header with power, 2 x I2C ports, and second hardware serial port.
  • Micro SD card slot for config files, logs, and media storage.
  • Onboard temperature sensor.
  • Header for front-panel power LED.
  • Can be built with onboard PCB antenna or external WiFi antenna.
