OPS i7

What the OPS i7 adds to a Clevertouch display

An OPS module is a computer built to a standard form factor that sits inside a display's OPS slot, so the panel can open applications, show content and join the network without a separate PC beside it. The Clevertouch OPS i7 is the higher-specification of the two modules in this range, built around an Intel Core i7 13620H processor with 6 performance cores, 4 efficiency cores and 16 threads. Memory is 16GB DDR4, storage is a 512GB SSD, and graphics come from Intel Iris Xe Graphics.

Against the OPS i5, the i7 offers 16 threads instead of 12 and twice the solid-state storage. That matters when a room runs heavier lesson software, several browser windows or large presentation files at once. Both modules share the same ports, dimensions, warranty and environmental ratings, so the choice comes down to workload and storage.

Ports, wireless and power through the slot

The module connects to the display through its OPS interface and draws its power through the OPS slot. Its ports are grouped into three sets:

• Front: HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort 1.4, two USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type A, two USB 2.0 Type A, one USB 3.0 Type C, a 3.5mm audio combo jack and one 2.5Gb LAN (RJ45) port.
• Rear: a JAE 80-pin connector and a 12-19V DC input.
• OPS interface: HDMI 2.0, DisplayPort 1.4, two USB 2.0, one USB 3.0 and a time-to-live (TTL) port.

Wireless is Intel Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) with Bluetooth 5.2. Wi-Fi 6E with Bluetooth 5.3 is available as an optional upgrade. Two Wi-Fi antennas and two security thumb screws come in the box, the screws for securing the module in its slot.

Windows choice, security and scheduling

Organisations can order the OPS i7 with Windows 11 Home, Windows 11 Pro or Windows 11 Enterprise IoT, or buy the module without an operating system if the IT team prefers to install its own image. That flexibility suits a ministry that manages licences centrally, as well as a school that needs one simple configuration across many rooms.

The module includes a firmware Trusted Platform Module (PTT 2.0) and supports power scheduling through its real-time clock, so a room computer can be set to power on and off with the timetable. Audio is handled by Realtek ALC897 HD Audio.

Where it fits across Qatar

Three situations show where the OPS i7 earns its place:

• A secondary school in Al Wakrah fitting out science and computing rooms, where each display needs its own computer with 16GB of memory and room for lesson software.
• A boardroom in West Bay that runs a Clevertouch display for presentations and external calls, using the 2.5Gb wired port where a cable link is preferred over Wi-Fi.
• A training centre in Education City sharing one room across several courses, where power scheduling switches the room system on and off around the teaching timetable.

What to plan before you order

Start by confirming that the target Clevertouch display has an OPS slot the module can use. Send the display model to the SmartRooms Qatar team with your quotation request. The manufacturer's data for this module does not list compatible panels, so we check that before anything is ordered. A free site survey also helps confirm the mounting position and access to the slot.

Environment matters in Qatar. The module is rated for operating temperatures from -5°C to 45°C at 10% to 90% humidity, non-condensing. Summer afternoons can climb above 45°C, so keep the display in an air-conditioned room and confirm the installation environment with the SmartRooms Qatar team before fitting.

The standard warranty is one year return to base, and it can be upgraded to three years total cover. Physical size is 180mm x 119mm x 30mm, with a gross weight of 0.95kg. For several rooms, we work with purchase orders (LPOs) and government tenders, including Monaqasat. Request a quote for the OPS i7 and we will reply with a quotation, usually within one working day.
