Physical configuration

To prepare your Jetson AGX Xavier Developer Kit for use, connect it as follows:

  • Connect an external HDMI display to the carrier board’s HDMI port. HDMI cable is not provided with the developer kit.
  • Connect a USB keyboard and mouse.
    • For USB Type-A peripherals, NVIDIA provides a USB to USB-C adapter with the developer kit. You can also connect USB Type-A peripherals to the eStata+USB connector.
    • For USB Type-C peripherals, you can connect them to any of the 2 USB-C ports.
    • Leave the front USB Type-C port (the one next to the power light) available until you finish flashing the board.
  • Connect the developer kit to your local network via Ethernet cable to the carrier board's Ethernet port.
  • Connect the included AC adapter to the carrier board's power jack. Plug the AC adapter into an appropriately rated electrical outlet.
    • Use only the supplied AC adapter, as it is appropriately rated for your device.

Note that the Jetson AGX Xavier Developer Kit may be run upside down or resting on the non-vented side, allowing easy access to the camera connector and headers on the bottom of the carrier board. Any of these orientations are OK.
