Rugged Small Form Factor Embedded Computer Now Offers Removable SSD Storage for Data Security

Acromag’s customisable-off-the-shelf embedded computer is a rugged deployable, conduction-cooled  sff computer and is designed specifically for military/aerospace systems.

ARCX with SSDAcromag has introduced the ARCX box, a rugged small form factor embedded computer with unique expandable features that include PMC, XMC, mini PCIe, mSATA module slots, optional solid-state drive, front I/O panel, and secondary connectors. This SFF embedded computer was engineered rugged with Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) to address space requirements of vehicle electronics. Compatible with industry standards and manufactured to IP67 standards and shock and vibration tested to MIL-STD-810G these computers are available as either a single PMC/XMC slot or double PMC/XMC slot versions.

The SFF computer comes equipped with a high-performance Intel® 4th generation Core™ i7 CPU. The CPU allows programmable power limits, where heat and power is a concern. A rugged design includes thick circuit boards and high shock and vibration SODIMM hold-down mechanism and heat sink plus it is cableless and fanless. Designed and manufactured in the USA for military/aerospace deployable systems such as: vetronics, C4ISR, payload management, and command and control applications. 

“Valuing the use of industry standards like PMC/XMC, mSATA and mPCIe we have now added lockable, easily-removed storage capability using SSD devices readily available on the open market to our ARCX solutions.  This gives our customers a platform with optimal flexibility to assemble the system they want and need” commented Russ Nieves, Acromag’s International Sales Manager.
    The ARCX embedded computer is truly a customizable-off-the-shelf, SWaP solution that features customizable expansion, all with low power and a compact size.

  1. Acromag is one of the companies that built its reputation designing critical measurement instrumentation equipment for the petrochemical and aerospace industries and they are invented the new ARCX box. This is a rugged small form factor embedded computer that has a removable SSD storage for data security. This device has exceptional features that include PMC, XMC, mini PCIe, mSATA module slots, optional solid-state drive, front I/O panel, and secondary connectors. The ARCX box is equipped with a powerful high-performance of Intel 4th generation Core™ i7 CPU. It has very unusual specs for an embedded computer like thick circuit boards with high shock and vibration SODIMM hold-down mechanism and heat sink plus it is cable-less and fan-less design. This is exclusively made in the USA for military/aerospace deployable systems like vetronics, C4ISR, payload management, and command and control applications. These are some information of the powerful device from Arcromag. Thanks for sharing your ideas about this.
