11.Can I power the motherboard through a USB hub?
It depends on the USB hub. Some hubs comply with the USB 2.0 standard and only provide 500mA per port, which is not enough to power your DEBIX.
-
12.Can I use the battery or wall socket to power DEBIX?
Running DEBIX directly on the battery requires more attention, and it may damage your DEBIX. However, if you are a practised user, you can give it a try. For example, the four most common AA rechargeable batteries can provide 4.8V when fully charged. Technically 4.8V is just within the tolerance of DEBIX, but as the battery runs out, the system quickly becomes unstable. While four AA alkaline (non-rechargeable) batteries can provide 6V voltage, which exceeds the acceptable tolerance range and may damage your DEBIX. By using a buck and/or boost circuit, you can ensure stable 5V voltage (or using a charger set specifically designed to output a stable 5V from several batteries). These devices are usually sold as emergency battery chargers for mobile phones.

13.What are the power requirements?
DC 5V/3A input with Type-C interface.
-
14.Is Power Over Ethernet (POE) feasible?
Yes, but it need to be equipped with a POE power supply module.
-
15.Is there a detailed definition of GPIO pins?
Yes, please refer to the DEBIX User Manual.
-
16.What size SD card is needed?
Micro SD card.
-
17.What capacity of SD card does it support?
Although the minimum capacity of 8GB should be enough for most people, we have tried SD cards up to 128GB and they all work well. You can also connect a USB flash disk or mobile hard disk to provide additional storage capacity.
-
18.Can I boot DEBIX through a USB-connected hard disk instead of an SD card?
No, it doesn’t support.
-
19.Does it has built-in wireless network?
DEBIX has built-in 2.4G & 5G WiFi.
-
20.Does it has built-in bluetooth?
There’s a built-in bluetooth 5.0.
