WINSYTSEM puts Amston Lake on a fanless 3.5″ card
Orbit AL is now orderable for cabinets that need more CPU than Apollo Lake and still refuse to grow a fan.

Grand-scale launch theater is not our habit. Orbit AL is in the book because several OEM programs asked for Amston Lake thermal behavior on the same 3.5″ connector map they already tooled.
The board keeps industrial Ethernet, locking I/O, and the −40 to +85 °C conversation, with SKU notes that say when airflow is required instead of hiding it in a footnote.
Evaluation units ship with a reference image and a heatspreader kit. Production lead times are published on the quote, not discovered at week twelve.
