NUC11PAHi7 doesn't have TPM 2.0?

Panther has no TPM 2.0? need to go Tiger Canyon?

Your nuc has PTT.  You are OK.

Also, for a description of PTT, hover over the entry in the link I provided above.  You will see:

Intel® Platform Trust Technology (Intel® PTT)

Intel® Platform Trust Technology (Intel® PTT) is a platform functionality for credential storage and key management used by Windows 8* and Windows® 10. Intel® PTT supports BitLocker* for hard drive encryption and supports all Microsoft requirements for firmware Trusted Platform Module (fTPM) 2.0.

Is Tiger the better option for something left on all the time used as a light server? 

[n_scott_pearson]

The TN NUCs are more-specifically designed to support business environments (where its vPro capabilities can best be utilized). This may make it a better choice for a systems whose duties are limited to being a 'light server'. The PA NUCs, BTW, are from the Performance category.

The PTT capability offers the same set of capabilities that a TPM 2.0-compliant TPM provides, so, from the standpoint of Windows 11 support, it should be a wash consideration-wise.

I would add to this discussion, that there are two version of NUC TN. For example NUC11TNHi7 and NUC11TNHv7. The second version (NUC11TNHv7) is this one designed for business and is equipped with TPM chip. The other one (NUC11TNHi7), is equipped with Intel PTT, exactly like NUC11PAHi7.  As Scott and Al motioned, all three models are compatible with Windows 11. So, compatibility with Windows 11 is nor a problem. There are some other differences. You may see the Comparison Table of the three models.
