2000 SERIES

EMBEDDED COMPUTERS

The 2000 Series consists of a portfolio of embedded computer product reference designs suited for all standard board form factors on the market today. The Class 2000 consist of fan-cooled enclosures while the Class 2100 consist of sealed, conduction cooled enclosures. Both Classes support highly rugged and MIL spec applications required by the defense/aerospace markets as well as commercial/industrial applications such as railway, public safety/first responder vehicles and outdoor installations requiring a waterproof design.

Two classes of product are provided and are classified by the type of cooling technology utilized. A variety of standard products exist that can be further customized.

Class 2000
Convection Cooled Rugged Embedded Computers

Class 2100 Conduction Cooled Rugged Embedded Computers

Class 2100
Conduction Cooled Rugged Embedded Computers

  • When a traditional ATR is not the perfect fit, the Model 2170 can be selected to house single or multiple boards with or with a backplane. All Eurocard backplanes and boards supported:
    • CompactPCI (cPCI)
    • VME and VME64x (ANSI/VITA 1.1-1997)
    • VXS (ANSI/VITA 41)
    • VPX (VITA 46), OpenVPX (VITA 65) and VPX REDI (VITA 48)
    • Hybrid, custom and semi-custom configurations designed and fabricated in house.
  • Custom I/O panels can be discretely wired or a PCB can be designed to plug into the host board.

An “empty” enclosure can be provided for any model or select the Model 2100 which is specifically designed for prototyping
