CONTEC: palm-size DIN-rail mountable PC for embedded

CONTEC has introduced an embedded PC series, the BOX Computer BX300 series, that uses energy-efficient Intel Atom processor Z530P and features DIN-rail mountable body, fanless design. The New BOX Computer BX300 series is a power-saving industrial PC for embedded. This product features a palm-size body that allows it to be installed on DIN-rail. The most distinctive feature of this series is that its energy-efficiency is more greatly improved than the CPU-SB30 series that has same size chassis. This series supports Windows Embedded Standard, the OS for embedded equipment, and Windows Embedded Standard is designed for use in embedded systems, so you can use various Windows applications on the BX300 series.

This product can be used as a programmable automation controller. This product can accommodate up to eight I/O modules (digital I/O, analog I/O, counter, motion control and serial/GPIB communication). Further new features include expansion chassis [ECH-PCI-CE-H4D] in combination with, enabling you to use an expansion board for the desktop PC. Its other features are mini chassis and variety of standard interfaces. They include 2x 1000BASE-T LAN ports, 4x USB2.0 ports, 2x RS-232C serial ports, 2x CF card slots and audio. Customization of this product is available.
