ARBOR ARES-1980 is a fanless rugged industrial controller powered by an Intel 11th Gen Tiger Lake Core processor with 9-36V wide power input, 2.5GbE, optional 4G/5G cellular and/or WiFi connectivity, and designed for factory automation.
The embedded computer also comes with two PoE-capable Gigabit Ethernet ports, support for NVMe and SATA storage, eight digital outputs, eight digital inputs, several serial ports compatible with RS232, RS422, and/or RS485, and more.
By default, the ARES-1980 supports wall mounting, but ARBOR also offers DIN-rail or VESA mounts for their device. The company officially supports both Windows 10 IoT and Ubuntu 20.04 Linux.
The fanless rugged industrial controller appears to be available now, but pricing has not been made public. More details, including a datasheet and user manual, can be found on the product page.

I see a trademark dispute in sight with Arbor Networks – known for their anti-ddos solutions
Any potential trademark dispute might have already been resolved. ARBOR Technology has been around since 1993, and I can see Arbor Networks was founded in 2000. So they had 20+ years to figure this out.
