Dragonfly System Configurations

Dragonfly been designed to be as flexible as possible both within its own modules and with the hosts it can be paired with. The most popular configurations are;

Simple Dragonfly with a single laptop or PC host. This is ideal for portable or small system use.
Multiple Dragonfly units with a commercial non-POE, POE or HGL Switch module. This is ideal for larger systems but where an HGL Dragonfly CPU module is not available.
Complete Dragonfly ‘embedded’ system. This includes the use of the Dragonfly CPU module and provides a system with good performance that can be placed in remote, environmentally unfriendly (to people and laptops) locations and that can run autonomously or with a remote client connected by Ethernet.
