Physical configuration

To prepare your Jetson AGX Orin 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.
