Jetson Aluminum case

I researched every small case for my new Jetson Orin Nano devices and this one was not only the most reasonably priced but it's more solid and easier to use and configure than the rest. A bit more roomy that the others (except for the tower models, of couse) which makes life easier for big-fingered people like myself. All metal with clean stamping and fittings. I bought 3 of them.

The aluminum case is a nice, airy kit with lots of ventillation but it leaves out a key component clearly shown in the photos -- no external antennas. The kit goes together well; it has lots of little screws and the instructions are thin (read: plan to figure out details by yourself) but the assembled kit is solid. The case has lots of slots for ventilation and the fan included in the kit is unnecessary for the Jetson Orin Nano - it already has a fan installed. One minor nit is that the microSD card is not accessible from the outside, but that is an Nvidia Jetson bug, not an artifact of the case. That said, you have to remove the plastic antenna bracket lack on the Orin Nano kit to fit it inside the box, so omitting the external antenna is a MAJOR failure. Why do I expect a pair of external antennas in the kit? First, it is a metal box, so any antenna needs to be outside the box to be even remotely efficient. Second, the instructions have you remove the Jetson (plastic) frame that includes the original, basic antennas. Third, the video instructions CLEARLY SHOW the green box being assembled with two antennas as part of that process. Finally, the product photo shows two antennas; yes, they are grey and not black - oh, they just editted the black antennas out of the photo and put in grey filler pixels. Yeah. These last two points are terribly misleading and torpedo my assessment. One star.

Very sturdy. Good ventilation. Camera bracket is cluegy looking but very versatile by providing holes for either one or two cameras.

As a plain sturdy metal green case for a Jetson Nano Dev Kit it's fine, however the Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit will not mount as-is with the kit provided. Watch the Xavier NS instructions to see what I mean. Requires cutting a hole to expose the SD slot and cutting the plastic underneath. The Orin has a plastic base with electrical leads for tiny WiFi antennas. The plastic needs to be unscrewed then 3/4 of the sides cut off. You can skip this step and remove the plastic completely if installing full length antennas. My hand slipped with the dremmel while cutting the case, but otherwise happy with the end result.

great case, works wonderfully

Not ideal for the Jetson nano Super. Old design doesn’t align properly and has exposed gaps and ports

Nice solid box but it didn't come with antennas. Did come with a fan I didn't need. Get the instructions from the video on the product's Amazon page, not their website . Camera mount not motorized and only allows tilt but was a bonus feature anyway. Had to remove the skeleton frame that the Jetson Xavier NX DevKit came with.

Perfecta la caja para la jetson
