The -OEM variant does not include the screw terminals or enclosure.
Designed for direct integration into a larger product or platform.
USB Multifunction DAQ
The U6 family is great for acquiring signals from thermocouples,
strain gages, bridge circuits, encoders, and much more. With
instrumentation amplified inputs, and software selectable gain settings,
the U6 provides a cost effective method to measure analog signals which
can't be resolved by traditional 12-bit DAQ products. Common
applications include laboratory research, industrial control and
monitoring, and prototype development.

For more technical specifications look at the U6's datasheet.
The U6-Pro has the following additional features:
U6 vs U6-Pro
- Low-Speed and High-Resolution (24-bit) sigma-delta ADC giving access to resolution indices 9 through 12.
OEM Versions
The U6 and U6-Pro come in standard and OEM versions. The OEM versions
are intended to be embedded in another device. They are missing the
enclosure and most connectors, as it is easier to install connectors
than it is to remove them. LabJack can customize the boards to add or
remove hardware before shipping for an additional fee. More information
on OEM versions can be found in the OEM versions section of the U6 datasheet.
