The kit includes comprehensive technical documentation and advanced development tools that speed up the creation process and significantly reduce time to market for innovations.

Next-generation development architecture

At the heart of the DJI E-Port V2 Development Kit is an intelligent conversion architecture that transforms the Matrice 400’s four E-Port V2 ports into multiple standard interfaces. This revolutionary approach allows developers to connect their devices directly without the need to develop complex proprietary interfaces. The 120W power per port ensures sufficient power for the most demanding equipment, eliminating the energy constraints that often limit integration projects.

The kit’s intelligent management system automatically monitors and optimizes power distribution between different ports, ensuring stable and reliable power for all connected equipment. This embedded intelligence also protects against overloads, short circuits, and voltage variations, preserving the integrity of expensive equipment and ensuring the reliability of developed systems.

Standard interfaces and universal compatibility

The conversion to standard interfaces is the major innovation of the E-Port V2 kit. XT30 ports provide standardized, high-power power that is compatible with the majority of industrial and scientific equipment. USB 2.0 ports allow direct connection of embedded computers, storage devices, and communication interfaces. UART/PPS interfaces facilitate the integration of precise navigation systems, specialized sensors, and time synchronization equipment.

This standardization of interfaces eliminates the technical barriers that traditionally complicate the integration of third-party equipment. Developers can now use their preferred components without the need for specialized adapter development, significantly speeding up development cycles and reducing prototyping costs.
