Rugged portable computers
Many of our customers need a high-performance computing solution that they can set and deploy on the field. In other words, they primarily require these three things:
- Portability or mobility
- High-performance
- Configurability
The principal advantage of a portable computer versus a laptop or other mobile computing device is the use of standard motherboards or backplanes providing plug-in slots for add-in cards. This allows mission specific cards such as test, A/D, or communication protocol (IEEE-488, 1553) to be installed. Portable computers also provide for more disk storage by using standard 3-1/2″ drives and providing for multiple drives.
Portable workstations Laptops are also extremely portable. However, there are a number of reasons why laptops cannot provide the necessary performance required by our customers. Laptops cannot incorporate the necessary processors that many engineering workstations require. Memory storage, I/O options, and even RAM cap out at a certain point for laptops. One primary feature of our portable computers is the hot swappable HDD/SSD for easy transfer, upgrade, and maintenance. Our NetPAC, for example, can provide 16TB of SSD storage. Laptops may come with one Ethernet connection, a PCI slot, DVD Rom, and three USB ports. This limitation by laptops is a problem for many of our customers. Finally, upgradeability is also lacking for laptops. As a result, our portable computers are for people who need desktop-class performance in a compact construction. |
