Com/PC1-1100

The fanless Embedded Box PC Com/PC1-1100 is ideal for use in communication-intensive industrial applications. Its compact housing holds a base board with an Intel® Pentium® M CPU with 1.1 GHz and 512 MB RAM. During the design process, a great deal of emphasis was placed on the system's flexibility and ability to communicate. All Com/PC1-1100 connections are, therefore, easily accessible on the front and rear of the system. The system can be mounted on a wall or on a DIN-rail, for example, inside a control cabinet.

A Linux operating system (available on an internal CompactFlash card) or Windows®-XP Professional (on an optional 2.5" HDD) can be used. The Com/PC1-1100 is supplied with a 110 to 230 VAC power supply unit as standard. A 12 to 24 VDC power supply unit is also available as an option.

Maximum Interfaces

In addition to two independent Ethernet LAN interfaces (1 x 10/100/1000 Mbps and 1 x 10/100 Mbps), which allow IT- and automation-related activities to be completely separated, the Com/PC1-1100 features two separate PS/2 ports for connecting mouse and keyboard, as well as 2 CompactFlash slots, 10 serial interfaces, 4 USB 2.0 ports, 1 VGA port, 1 LPT port and sound I/Os.

On the rear of the unit there are four plug-in slots for communication expansions and / or analog / ISDN / GSM modems, as well as the power supply and a variety of status LEDs. The Com/PC1-1100 also supports the connection of up to three antennas for the purpose of setting up wireless communication via GSM / GPRS / EDGE or WLAN / Bluetooth.

WLAN on board

One of the two internal Mini PCI slots is supplied with an IEEE 802.11g WLAN card as standard. This means the system can be connected to an existing infrastructure for example to an intranet or the World Wide Web.

More Flexibility

If required, up to four slots for communication expansions can be made available on the rear of the Com/PC1-1100. Besides analog / ISDN / GSM modems, these can also accommodate fieldbus modules for PROFIBUS, PROFINET, CANopen, DeviceNet™, EtherNet/IP™, or Modbus. Additionally, the Com/PC1-1100 offers an empty Mini PCI slot for different expansion cards.

Fanless and Robust

The cooling of the Com/PC1-1100 is due to the intelligent arrangement of the internal components completely fanless. The CPU leads the incidental heat directly over the heat sink on top of the case to the surrounding air. The operating temperature is 0 to +50° C.
