Data & Network Interconnect

  • Stacked Data Link: High-Speed Interconnect

    USB 3.2 Gen 2 high-speed data interconnect for layer activations between stacked devices

  • Network Discovery: Wi-Fi 6

    Wireless mesh with up to 2.4 Gbps throughput for cluster coordination

  • Alternative: 2.5GbE Ethernet

    Use external switch for wired clustering with lower latency

  • Discovery Protocol

    Automatic device discovery + mDNS (_thox-cluster._tcp.local) for automatic peer detection

How it works: As devices approach, automatic device discovery detects proximity and initiates handshake. Powerful magnets self-align with sub-millimeter precision, then the high-speed data interconnect establishes a high-speed data link. The cluster elects a leader (external power → highest capacity → lowest UUID) and partitions AI models across devices using pipeline parallelism. Total formation time: ~10 seconds.

Thermal Management

THOX.ai features an intelligent thermal management system with passive and active cooling.

Cooling System

  • Aluminum heatsink with thermal compound interface
  • Low-noise 40mm fan (15-25 dBA at typical load)
  • Dynamic fan speed based on workload and temperature

Temperature Thresholds

Idle35-45°C
Normal Load50-65°C
Heavy Load65-75°C
Thermal Throttle>80°C

Note: If the device frequently reaches throttling temperatures, ensure proper ventilation and consider using the included mounting kit to position the device vertically.
