MXC-6300: industry's first fanless embedded computer
Adlink Technology, Inc. is releasing the industry's first fanless embedded computer, the MXC-6300. Equipped with 3rd generation Intel Core i7/i5/i3 processors and a QM77 chipset, the MXC-6300 solidly delivers top-of-the-line computing power and superior graphic performance over up to three high-resolution independent displays, with versatile expansion capability from three PCI/PCIe expansion slots accommodating a variety of I/O cards. The MXC-6300's combined features make it a good choice for any application requiring a compact profile, excellent computing power and graphic performance, and strong I/O capability in environmentally challenging applications, including machine vision, factory automation, maritime automation and video surveillance.
3rd gen Intel Core processors drive performance plus power efficiency, while taking up minimal shelf space. The Adlink MXC-6300 doubles graphic performance with the integrated Intel HD Graphic 4000, for front-running 3D graphic processing power with up to 40 per cent increased performance per watt compared with designs based on the 2nd gen Intel Core processors, and supports three simultaneous independent displays via two Display Ports with VGA or DVI-D. The MXC-6300 enhances high-precision imaging applications such as medical, surveillance, and industrial automation.
The Adlink MXC-6300 has a combination of high-performance computing power and three PCI/PCIe high-speed expansion slots in a compact enclosure, enabling integration of various applications. For high-resolution imaging applications, the MXC-6300's design reserves sufficient space for wide PCIe ×16 graphic add-on cards with fan. Additionally, the MXC-6300's rich I/O interface, including six USB ports (4 USB 3.0 + 2 USB 2.0), 4 serial ports, 16-CH digital I/O, and 2 Gigabit Ethernet ports, is 100 per cent accessible through the front panel, making access for installation and maintenance easier and more convenient than ever before.
The Adlink MXC-6300 improves on competing products with proven ruggedised design delivering operating shock tolerance up to 50G, and an extended operating temperature range of -20degC to 60degC. Kenny Chang, Director of Adlink's I/O platform product centre, says: "The MXC-6300, in addition to employing HALT (Highly Accelerated Life Test) scientific testing methods to provide maximum reliability and long-term availability, can reach MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) of 160,000 hours for mission-critical applications. Adlink leads performance technology-driven building blocks, allowing customers to utilise benefits faster and reach the market quickly with complete applications. As always, compatibility with Adlink's full spectrum of I/O cards is guaranteed by strict verification testing."
Adlink's MXC-6300 supports multiple OS, including Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows 7 Embedded, Windows XP, Windows XP Embedded, and Linux. For further details about this fanless embedded computer with with 3rd generation Intel Core i7/i5/i3 processors, please visit the website at www.adlinktech.com.
