CWWK C13 Industrial Box PC with 4 COM & Dual LAN
The CWWK C13 is an Industrial Box PC designed for industrial automation, equipment control, edge computing and multi-device serial communication. It combines Intel 12th Gen Core processors, dual Gigabit LAN, four DB9 COM ports, DDR4 memory, M.2 PCIe/SATA storage and flexible industrial connectivity in a compact system platform.
Intel 12th Gen Core Industrial Box PC
CW-C13 is available with Intel Core i3-1215U, Core i5-1235U and Core i7-1255U processors, providing multiple performance levels for industrial control, edge gateways and multi-device communication applications.
Dual Gigabit LAN for Industrial Network Connectivity
CW-C13 integrates two Realtek RTL8111H Gigabit Ethernet interfaces for industrial networks, local device communication, management networks and edge gateway deployments.
4 COM Ports for Multi-Device Serial Communication
CW-C13 provides four physical DB9 COM ports for industrial systems that need to communicate with multiple serial devices from a single Box PC.
With four physical COM ports, CW-C13 can connect more PLCs, controllers, meters, barcode scanners, industrial instruments and other serial devices without relying on multiple external USB-to-serial adapters.
CW-C12 vs CW-C13: 2 COM vs 4 COM
CW-C12 and CW-C13 use the same NUC12D motherboard platform and share the same processor, memory, storage and dual-LAN architecture. The primary difference is the number and configuration of external serial ports.
CW-C12
Dual Gigabit LAN + 2 × DB9 COM. COM1 and COM2 operate as RS232 by default and can be switched to RS485. C12 is suited to installations that require up to two direct serial device connections.
CW-C13
Dual Gigabit LAN + 4 × DB9 COM. COM1 and COM2 support RS232 with RS485 switching, while COM3 and COM4 support RS232. C13 is designed for applications that need more simultaneous serial device connections.
DDR4 Memory and M.2 PCIe/SATA Storage
The NUC12D platform combines DDR4 memory with flexible M.2 and SATA storage for compact industrial computing deployments.
Mini-PCIe Expansion for WiFi and 4G
CW-C13 includes a Mini-PCIe expansion interface for compatible WiFi or 4G modules, providing additional wireless connectivity for industrial and remote edge applications.
NUC12D Motherboard and Interface Layout
CW-C13 shares the NUC12D motherboard platform with CW-C12, integrating dual Gigabit Ethernet, serial communication, DDR4 memory, M.2 storage, SATA and Mini-PCIe expansion on a compact 120 × 120 mm motherboard.
Active Cooling for Industrial Computing Workloads
CW-C13 uses an internal active cooling structure designed to manage heat during sustained industrial computing, communication and edge workloads.
The cooling assembly works with the metal enclosure and internal airflow path to dissipate heat generated by the processor and system components during continuous operation.
Industrial Automation and Multi-Device Applications
Four physical COM ports give CW-C13 a stronger focus on installations that require multiple serial devices to communicate with one industrial computer.
Front and Rear I/O Connectivity
CW-C13 combines four physical serial ports, dual Gigabit Ethernet and general-purpose system I/O for industrial control and communication applications.
