Product short description:

End of Life. Consult factory for alternative solutions.

  • 4th Gen Intel® Core™ i7 CPU
  • Removable SATA drives
  • PMC/XMC module expansion slots

The ARCX-4000 embedded computer is a customizable-off-the-shelf (COTS), SWaP-optimized deployable solution. This rugged, small form factor mission computer is designed for extreme rugged and MIL-AERO applications. This true COTS solution uses the Acromag COM Express Type 6 product platform. The ARCX is perfect as a portable data acquisition system in an aircraft by adding a 1553 interface board to a dual unit. Add a FPGA and high-speed graphics card for high-speed video transfer.

 

 

ARCX-4000: Rugged Embedded Computer with Intel Core i7 CPU Description

Typical applications for the ARCX-4000 rugged embedded computer include military/aerospace deployable systems such as: vetronics, C4ISR, payload management, as well as command and control for drones and robotics.

More specifically the ARCX is perfect as a portable data acquisition system in an aircraft by adding a 1553 interface board to a dual unit.

Add a FPGA and high-speed graphics card for high-speed video transfer. For multi-sensor monitoring on mobile applications simply add a CAN bus interface.
