{{DISPLAYTITLE:NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX - NVIDIA Developer Kit|noerror}}

==NVIDIA's Orin NX Developer Kit includes:==

* The reference Carrier board with the Orin NX SoM (includes 802.11 plug-in WLAN & BT module preinstalled with antenna).
* 19V  power supply.
* A small paper card with quick start and support information.
* Some versions of the kit comes with a SD Cards slot on the Orin NX SoM .

==Developer Kit Connectors==
This section overviews the connectors available in the developer kit by NVIDIA. Figures 1 and 2 show the NVIDIA Orin NX developer kit external connectors. Figure 3 show the ports available in the back of the developer kit. Look how each image has labels on each port, those labels are used in further sections to explain its functionality.

===Power===
There are two options to connect the developer kit to power:
* The USB-C port (8): the 19V power adapter required for using this port is included in the developer kit box.
* The Power Jack port (3): with a DC power adapter of 7V to 20V.

===USB===
The developer kit has:
* Four USB-A connectors (5, 6).
* One USB C port (8).

===Display===
A Display Port or HDMI (depends on the developer kit version) monitor can be connected (4).

===CSI Cameras===
Two 15 pin MIPI CSI-2 ports available (1, 2). 

===Network===
* The ethernet connector is capable of up to 10 Gb/s (7).
* The WiFi module port (14).

===GPIO===
* Pin output for general applications (9).

===SODIMM===
* Port for the NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano - NX board (10)

===Debug===
* Different pinout for a wide range of applications such as UART, recovery mode, power button, etc (11).

===M.2 expansion slots support===
* Two Key-E slots (12, 13).
* One Key-A slots (14)

===Antennas===
* Dedicated plastic space for antennas (15).

==Booting the Jetson Orin Nano - NX Developer Kit==
The Orin Nano - NX developer kit doesnt't come pre-flashed and ready to boot (if you wish to build and flash the OS by yourself, check our [[NVIDIA_Jetson_Orin/Introduction/Software_Support|JetPack SDK section]]). These are the steps to boot your Jetson Orin Nano - NX developer kit for the first time once you have flashed the board:

# Connect an external monitor to the carrier board’s Display Port or HDMI (4). The Display Port cable is not provided with the developer kit box.
# Connect a USB keyboard and mouse to the USB-A ports (5, 6).
# Connect the power supply (included in the developer kit box) to power inputs (3 or 8).

After this, you should see a green LED near of (8) turn on, and the monitor will show a window to create your login credentials and connect to WiFi.

<!--
**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.
