ITPC-B vs. ITPC-B-CP2: what generation 2 changes
A comparison of the original ITPC-B panel PC series and the new CP2 generation: full-bonding displays, Rockchip RK3566/RK3568/RK3588 platforms, dual LAN, and 4G/LTE connectivity.
The original ITPC-B panels earned their place in kiosks and operator stations as affordable, fanless Android/Linux terminals. The CP2 generation keeps that positioning and modernizes everything around it. If you standardized on the first generation, here is what actually changes.
The headline upgrades
- Processor platform — from the aging RK3288 to Rockchip RK3566/RK3568/RK3588: multiple times the compute, modern Android/Linux BSPs, and NPU options for local inference on the top tier.
- Full-bonding display — the touch glass is laminated directly to the LCD: better contrast, no internal condensation gap, and a stiffer front for public use.
- Dual Gigabit LAN (configuration-dependent) — separate device and management networks, or wired redundancy.
- Cellular options — 4G/LTE modules for installations beyond reliable Ethernet.
- Memory and storage headroom — up to 8GB RAM and 128GB eMMC embedded.
Side by side
| Aspect | ITPC-B (gen 1) | ITPC-B-CP2 (gen 2) |
|---|---|---|
| SoC | Rockchip RK3288 | RK3566 / RK3568 / RK3588 |
| Display bonding | Air gap | Full bonding |
| LAN | 1× 100M/1G | Up to 2× Gigabit |
| Cellular | — | 4G/LTE option |
| Wireless | Wi-Fi | Wi-Fi + Bluetooth embedded |
| Best for | Existing single-app terminals | New deployments, connected fleets |
Sizes run 12.1" to 21.5" across the CP2 range — see the ITPC-B150-CP2, ITPC-B156-CP2, and ITPC-B215-CP2. Mechanical cutouts differ from gen 1 on some sizes, so confirm the cutout before planning drop-in replacements.
