VIM3L is more than just an affordable HTPC with an Amlogic S905D3 SoC (x4 A55 1.9GHz cores), 2 gigabytes of RAM and a 16GB SSD. It is also a highly expandable mini-computer that can even run Linux!
This is where the M2X Extension Board comes in. It is an add-on for the VIM3L that supports Power-Over-Ethernet, a 4G Module (and 4G SIM cards), and even full-sized 2280 NVMe SSDs. It slots neatly into the VIM3L's M.2 slot on the underside.
Check out this 2-minute video for how to put all these components together into one cool SBC, in a tiny footprint slightly larger than a credit card.
